If the curve satisfying x(x + 1) dydx\frac{dy}{dx} - y = x(x +
1), passes through (1, 0), then the value of

52(5y4−log⁡e4)\frac{5}{2}\left( \frac{5y}{4} - \log_{e}4 \right) at x = 4, is.

Show answer and solution
x(x+1) dydx\frac{dy}{dx} - y = x (x + 1)
⇒dydx+(−1x(x+1)\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx} + \left( \frac{- 1}{x(x + 1} \right) y = 1
Here,
P(x)=−1x(x+1),Q(x)=1P(x) = \frac{- 1}{x(x + 1)},Q(x) = 1
And integrating factor
=e∫−1x(x+1)dx= e^{\int\frac{- 1}{x(x + 1)}dx}
=e−∫(1x−1x+1)dx= e^{- \int\left( \frac{1}{x} - \frac{1}{x + 1} \right)dx}
=e−(lnx−ln(x+1)=x+1x= e^{- (lnx - ln(x + 1)} = \frac{x + 1}{x}
So the solution is

y.(x+1x)=∫1.x+1xdx+cy.(\frac{x + 1}{x}) = \int 1.\frac{x + 1}{x}dx + c
y⋅(x+1x)=x+log⁡ex+Cy \cdot (\frac{x + 1}{x}) = x + \log_{e}x + C
(x=1,y=0⇒C=−1)(x = 1,y = 0 \Rightarrow C = - 1)
⇒y(x+1x)=(x−1)+log⁡ex\Rightarrow y(\frac{x + 1}{x}) = (x - 1) + \log_{e}x
y(4)(54)=3+log⁡e4y(4)(\frac{5}{4}) = 3 + \log_{e}4
54y(4)−log⁡e4=3\frac{5}{4}y(4) - \log_{e}4 = 3
