Hi ppl

I need urgent help.. I have an exam in two days but I can't seem to solve differential equations correctly

\frac{\mathrm{dx} }{\mathrm{d} t} = \frac{cos^2x}{e^{2t}}

Separating the variables

\int \frac{1}{cos^2x}dx=\int e^{-2t}~dt


\int sec^2x~dx=\int e^{-2t}~dt

<br />tanx=-\frac{1}{2}e^{-2t} +C


When x = 0 t= 0. Input these values into the below equation and find the value of C

tanx=-\frac{1}{2}e^{-2t} +C

C = 0.5

Hence,

tanx=-\frac{1}{2}e^{-2t} + \frac{1}{2}<br /><br />x = tan^{-1}(-\frac{1}{2}e^{-2t} + \frac{1}{2})

volume~=\frac{4}{3}h^3

Differentiating :

\frac{\mathrm{dV} }{\mathrm{d} h}=4h^2

The rate of change of volume with respect to time is equal to the water input minus the water loss :

\frac{\mathrm{dV} }{\mathrm{d} t}=20-kh^2

-kh2 represents the loss via leakage

\frac{\mathrm{dV} }{\mathrm{d} t}\times \frac{\mathrm{dh} }{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{dV} }{\mathrm{d} t}\times \frac{\mathrm{dh} }{\mathrm{d} V} = \frac{\mathrm{dh} }{\mathrm{d} t}<br />

\frac{\mathrm{dh} }{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{20-kh^2}{4h^2}

Simplify to :

\frac{5}{h^2}-\frac{k}{4}

When~h=1,\frac{\mathrm{dh} }{\mathrm{d} t}=4.95

Input h=1 into above equation and find k. You will see the end solution is the equation given in the paper.
