Answer

$y=-\dfrac{3}{x^3+C}$

Work Step by Step

We are given that $ \dfrac{dy}{dx}=x^2y^2$ We will separate the variables to obtain: $\dfrac{dy}{y^2}=x^2 \ dx$ Integrate to obtain: $\int y^{-2} \ dy=\int x^2 \ dx$ This implies that $\dfrac{y^{-1}}{-1}=\dfrac{x^3}{3}+C$ Therefore, we have: $y=-\dfrac{3}{x^3+C}$
