Question:

If \(y=y(x)\) is the solution of the differential equation
\( \frac{5+e^x}{2+y}\cdot\frac{dy}{dx}+e^x=0 \)
satisfying \(y(0)=1\), then a value of \(y(\log_e 13)\) is :

Show Hint

Separate the variables: \(\frac{dy}{2+y}=-\frac{e^x}{5+e^x}dx\) and integrate.

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Separate variables: \(\frac{dy}{2+y}=-\frac{e^x\,dx}{5+e^x}\).
Integrate: \(\ln|2+y|=-\ln(5+e^x)+\ln K\), i.e. \((2+y)(5+e^x)=K\).
Use \(y(0)=1\): \(K=(2+1)(5+1)=18\).
At \(x=\ln13\): \(e^x=13\), so \((2+y)(18)=18\Rightarrow 2+y=1\Rightarrow y=-1\).
