A Bernoulli differential equation is one of the form

dy/dx+P(x)y=Q(x)yn.


Observe that, if n=0 or 1, the Bernoulli equation is linear. For other values of nn, the substitution u=y1−n transforms the Bernoulli equation into the linear equation

du/dx+(1−n)P(x)u=(1−n)Q(x).



Use an appropriate substitution to solve the equation

y′−(5/x) y=y5/x3,
and find the solution that satisfies y(1)=1.

y(x)=
