Learn the basics of first order differential equations, including what a differential equation is, how to identify its order, and how to find general and particular solutions.
In this lesson, we focus on first order differential equations that can be solved by integration. You will learn how to solve for the original function, how to use an initial condition to find a particular solution, and how to verify that a function satisfies a differential equation. We also look at constant solutions, increasing and decreasing solutions, equilibrium solutions, and a population model using a logistic differential equation.
This video is helpful for students in Calculus 2, Differential Equations, AP Calculus BC, or any course introducing differential equations for the first time.
