Question
**Differential Equation Analysis**

Given: 

\[ \frac{dy}{dx} = x\sqrt{y} \]
\[ y(2) = 4 \]

This equation is labeled as "separable" in red ink, indicating that it can be solved by separation of variables.

**Explanation:**

The equation is a first-order differential equation, which appears to be separable. This means it can be rewritten in a form where all terms involving \( y \) are on one side, and all terms involving \( x \) are on the other, allowing for integration. The initial condition \( y(2) = 4 \) provides a specific solution to the equation.

Variable Separable Differential Equations

The differential equations which are expressed in terms of (x,y) such that, the x-terms and y-terms can be separated to different sides of the equation (including delta terms). Thus each variable separated can be integrated easily to form the solution of differential equation.
