Show that each of the following differential equations is homogeneous and solve each of them :
`(x-y)dy=(x+2y)dx`.

Answer

To solve the differential equation \((x - y) dy = (x + 2y) dx\), we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Rewrite the Equation
First, we rearrange the given differential equation into a more manageable form:
\[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{x + 2y}{x - y} \]

### Step 2: Check for Homogeneity
To check if the equation is homogeneous, we replace \(x\) with \(\lambda x\) and \(y\) with \(\lambda y\):
\[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{\lambda x + 2\lambda y}{\lambda x - \lambda y} = \frac{\lambda(x + 2y)}{\lambda(x - y)} = \frac{x + 2y}{x - y} \]
Since the equation remains unchanged when we factor out \(\lambda\), it is homogeneous of degree 0.

### Step 3: Substitute \(y = vx\)
Next, we use the substitution \(y = vx\), where \(v\) is a function of \(x\). This gives us:
\[ dy = v dx + x \frac{dv}{dx} \]
Substituting this into our equation, we have:
\[ v dx + x \frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{x + 2(vx)}{x - vx} dx \]
This simplifies to:
\[ v + x \frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{x + 2vx}{x - vx} \]

### Step 4: Simplify the Equation
Now, we simplify the right-hand side:
\[ v + x \frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{x(1 + 2v)}{x(1 - v)} = \frac{1 + 2v}{1 - v} \]
This leads to:
\[ x \frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{1 + 2v}{1 - v} - v \]
Combining the terms gives:
\[ x \frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{1 + 2v - v(1 - v)}{1 - v} = \frac{1 + 2v - v + v^2}{1 - v} = \frac{1 + v + v^2}{1 - v} \]

### Step 5: Separate Variables
Now we can separate the variables:
\[ \frac{1 - v}{1 + v + v^2} dv = \frac{1}{x} dx \]

### Step 6: Integrate Both Sides
Integrating both sides:
\[ \int \frac{1 - v}{1 + v + v^2} dv = \int \frac{1}{x} dx \]
The right-hand side integrates to:
\[ \ln |x| + C \]
For the left-hand side, we can split the integral:
\[ \int \frac{1}{1 + v + v^2} dv - \int \frac{v}{1 + v + v^2} dv \]
The first integral can be solved using partial fractions or a trigonometric substitution, while the second can be solved using substitution.

### Step 7: Solve the Integrals
1. For \(\int \frac{1}{1 + v + v^2} dv\), we can complete the square:
\[ 1 + v + v^2 = (v + \frac{1}{2})^2 + \frac{3}{4} \]
This leads to:
\[ \int \frac{1}{(v + \frac{1}{2})^2 + (\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})^2} dv = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{2v + 1}{\sqrt{3}}\right) \]

2. The second integral can be solved using substitution.

### Step 8: Combine Results
Combine the results from both integrals and solve for \(y\) in terms of \(x\).

### Final Solution
After performing the integration and substituting back \(v = \frac{y}{x}\), we will arrive at the solution of the differential equation.
