A differential equation is a mathematical equation for an unknown function of one or several variables that relates the values of the function itself and its derivatives of various orders. An ordinary differential equation (ODE) is a differential equation containing one or more derivatives of a function and their rates of change with respect to the function itself; it can be used to model a wide variety of phenomena. Differential equations can be used to describe many phenomena in physics, including sound, heat, electrostatics, electrodynamics, fluid dynamics, elasticity, quantum mechanics, and general relativity.

So because of the fact that our differential equation involves a Y prime, the first step in solving this problem is going to be finding the first derivative of why So why prime is going to be equal to We're gonna have to do the chain well here. So, first we'll take the derivative of X squared over two and using the power rule, we know that this is going to be two x to the first power over to and this will be times E to the same exponents, um X squared over two. And so when we simplify, we find that why Prime is equal to X e the X squared over two. And so when we substitute of this into our differential equation, we know that Ah, why prime again is X e to the X squared over too. And this should be equal to X times. Why? And so we know that why is equal to e to the X squared over two. So when we plug all this into our differential equation, we get X E to the X squared over two is equal to x e to the x squared over to power. So since he's a reek willl that tells us that why is a solution to
