Solve by difficulty

Let $y=y(x)$ be the solution of the differential equation $\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{(\tan x)+y}{\sin x(\sec x-\sin x \tan x)}, x \in\left(0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right)$ satisfying the condition $y\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)=2$. Then, $y\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)$ is

The temperature $\mathrm{T}(\mathrm{t})$ of a body at time $\mathrm{t}=0$ is $160^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$ and it decreases continuously as per the differential equation $\frac{\mathrm{dT}}{\mathrm{dt}}=-\mathrm{K}(\mathrm{T}-80)$, where $\mathrm{K}$ is a positive constant. If $\mathrm{T}(15)=120^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$, then $\mathrm{T}(45)$ is equal to

Bernoulli’s Equation

When DE is not in the linear form, it can sometimes be converted into a linear form with the help of proper substitution.

An equation of the form

\\\mathrm{\frac{dy}{dx}+P(x)\cdot y=Q(x)\cdot y^n\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\ldots(i)}

Where P(x) and Q(x) are a function of x only, is known as Bernoulli’s equation.

(If we put n = 0, then the equation is in linear form.) 

To reduce Eq (i) into linear form, divide both sides by yn,

\\\mathrm{\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\frac{1}{y^n}\cdot\frac{dy}{dx}+\frac{P(x)}{y^{n-1}}=Q(x)\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;}\\\\\mathrm{or\;\;\;\;\;\;y^{-n}\cdot\frac{dy}{dx}+{y^{1-n}}\cdot P(x)=Q(x)\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\ldots(ii)}\\\\\text{Putting }y^{1-n}=t, \text{converts this equation into a linear equation in t, which can then be solved}
