Explicit solution of linear first-order DE for JEE

Solution of a homogeneous and linear differential equation of the type dy/dx + p(x)y = q(x)

Formula

\[y=e^{-\int p(x)dx}\left(\int q(x)e^{\int p(x)dx}\,dx + C\right)\]

Variables: \(C\) is an arbitrary constant.

Conditions: Equivalent explicit form of the standard linear solution.

Writing final answer directly in solved form for \(y\).
