    24 Jan: Collected in class, Page 41, 1.4: 18, 22, 26.
    Three linear examples: y'=1+y, y'=x+y, y'=x+ (1/x)y. Variation of parameters formula. General solution of the homogeneous equation. Superposition principle. Slides for exercises 1.5-3, 1.5-5, 1.5-11, 1.5-33. Some discussion of 1.5-34.
    On 1.5-34: The units should be taken as millions of cubic feet. The textbook gives the initial value problem x'=r_i c_i - (r_0/v)x, x(0)=x_0. The initial value is x_0 = (0.25/100)8000, the output rate is r_0=500, and the tank volume is V=8000. Please determine the value for the input concentration, constant c_i. You should obtain r_ic_i=1/4. Then solve the initial value problem. The book's answer t = 16 ln 4 = 22.2 days is correct.

    Threading edge-to-edge solutions is based upon two rules: (1) Solution curves don't cross, and (2) Threaded solution curves must match tangents with nearby arrows of the direction field. See the direction field document above for explanations. For problem 1.3-8, xerox at 200 percent the textbook page and paste the figure. Draw threaded curves on this figure according to the rules in the direction field document above.
