Seaman, Brian; Osler, Thomas J. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2004
A special project which can be given to students of ordinary differential equations is described in detail. Students create new differential equations by changing the dependent variable in the familiar linear first-order equation (dv/dx)+p(x)v=q(x) by means of a substitution v=f(y). The student then creates a table of the new equations and…

Ren, Zhong-Pu; Wu, Zhi-Qin; Zhou, Qi-Fa; Guo, Bai-Ni; Qi, Feng – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2004
In this short note, a mathematical proposition on a functional equation for f(xy)=xf(y) + yf(x)for x,y [does not equal] 0, which is encountered in calculus, is generalized step by step. These steps involve continuity, differentiability, a functional equation, an ordinary differential linear equation of the first order, and relationships between…
