Show that every member of the family of functions y = (6 ln(x) + C)/x , x > 0, is a solution of the differential equation x2y' + xy = 6. (Simplify as much as possible.) y = 6 ln(x) + C x ⇒ y' = 6x · (1/x) − (6 ln(x) +C) x2 LHS = x2y' + xy = x2 · x2 + x · 6 ln(x) + C x = + 6 ln(x) + C = = RHS, so y is a solution of the differential equation.
