Determine which of the following differential equations are separable. In each case explain why
the differential equation is or is not separable.
If separable, find the general solution to the differential equation.
Substitute the solution derived into the differential equation and confirm that it satisfies the
equation.
Hint: Solution may be not integrable in terms of elementary functions. In this case it can be left
in quadrature, i.e. in terms of integral. Don’t give up in advance and make sure that this is the
case.
