Question

A curve passes through the point (0,8) and has the property that the slope of the curve at every point p is three times the y-coordinate of p. What is the equation of the curve? Y(x)=

Answer 1

slope is 3y

let one point is (x,y)

dy/dx = 3y

=> dy/y = 3dx

=> lny = 3x + c

substittue (0,8)

=> ln8 = c

so lny = 3x + ln8

=>ln(y/8) = 3x

=> y = 8e^(3x)
