Bernoulli Differential Equation
• A Bernoulli differential equation can be written in the following form:
𝑑𝑑𝑑𝑑
+ 𝑝𝑝(𝑥𝑥)𝑦𝑦 = 𝑄𝑄(𝑥𝑥)𝑦𝑦 𝑛𝑛 where 𝑛𝑛 ≠ 1, n ≠ 0 (the equation is thus nonlinear).

𝑛𝑛 + 𝑝𝑝 𝑥𝑥 𝑦𝑦 1−𝑛𝑛 = 𝑄𝑄 𝑥𝑥

In this section,
y′+p(x)y=q(x)yny′+p(x)y=q(x)ynwhere p(x)p(x) and q(x)q(x) are continuous functions on the interval
we’re working on and nn is a real number. Differential equations in this form are called Bernoulli
Equations.
First notice that if n=0n=0 or n=1n=1 then the equation is linear, and we already know how to solve it
in these cases. Therefore, in this section we’re going to be looking at solutions for values of nn other
than these two.
In order to solve these, we’ll first divide the differential equation by ynyn to get,
y−ny′+p(x)y1−n=q(x)y−ny′+p(x)y1−n=q(x)We are now going to use the substitution v=y1−nv=y1−n to
convert this into a differential equation in terms of vv. As we’ll see this will lead to a differential
equation that we can solve.

Applications of Bernoulli Differential Equations
Example:
The rate of change of concentration in a chemical reaction,𝑅𝑅′ 𝑡𝑡 is the sum of the following two functions:
M(t) and N(t). If the initial concentration R(1) = 0.
Find the general solution for the concentration.
The functions M(t) and N(t) are given by 𝑀𝑀 𝑡𝑡 = 𝑅𝑅 𝑡𝑡 , 𝑁𝑁 𝑡𝑡 = −𝑅𝑅 𝑡𝑡
