Method of Solution
First-order linear differential equation has the form

An integrating factor for the first-order linear differential equation is

which depends only on x and is independent of y. When both sides of the first-order linear
differential form are multiplied by I(x), the resulting equation

is exact. A simpler procedure is to rewrite the above resulting equation as

integrate both sides of this last equation with respect to x, and then solve the resulting
equation for y.
