Answer

$y=Ae^{\frac{x^2}{2}}-2$

Work Step by Step

We are given that $ \dfrac{dy}{dx}=xy+2x$ We will separate the variables to obtain: $\dfrac{dy}{dx}=x(y+2)$ Integrate to obtain: $\int \dfrac{\ dy}{y+2}=\int x \ dx$ This implies that $\ln |y+2|=\dfrac{x^2}{2}+C$ or, $e^{\ln |y+2|}=e^{\frac{x^2}{2}}e^C$ Suppose that $A=e^C$ Therefore, we have: $y=Ae^{\frac{x^2}{2}}-2$
