Given two functions, M(x, y) and N(x, y), suppose that (∂N/∂x − ∂M/∂y)/(M − N) is a function of x + y. That is, let f(t) be a function such that f(x + y) = (∂N/∂x − ∂M/∂y)/(M − N) Assume that you can solve the differential equation M dx + N dy = 0 by multiplying by an integrating factor μ that makes it exact and that it can also be written as a function of x + y,...
