# Solving Differential Equations with an Integrating Factor

## Example Problem

Show that the differential equation \( x^2 y^3 + x(1 + y^2)y' = 0 \) is not exact, but becomes exact when multiplied by the integrating factor 
\[ \mu(x, y) = \frac{1}{x y^3} \]. Then solve the equation.

### Exactness Check
The given equation is not exact because
\[ M_y = \underline{\hspace{2cm}} \]
which is different from 
\[ N_x = \underline{\hspace{2cm}} \]

### Multiplying by the Integrating Factor
After multiplication with \( \mu(x, y) \), the equation is exact. The new equation satisfies:
\[ M_y = N_x = \underline{\hspace{2cm}} \]

### General Solution
The general solution of the differential equation is given implicitly by
\[ \underline{\hspace{4cm}} = c \]
for any constant \( c \).

### Explanation of Terms
- \( M \): Function multiplied by \( dx \) in the original differential equation.
- \( N \): Function multiplied by \( dy \) in the original differential equation.
- \( M_y \): Partial derivative of \( M \) with respect to \( y \).
- \( N_x \): Partial derivative of \( N \) with respect to \( x \).

By ensuring that \( M_y = N_x \) after applying the integrating factor, we establish the exactness of the equation and proceed to solve for the general solution.
