Answer

$\ln (1+e^y)=e^x+x+c$

Work Step by Step

Rewrite the given equation and then integrate. We have $\dfrac{dy}{dx}=(e^{x}+1)(e^{-y}+1)$ This implies that $ \int (e^{x}+1) dx=\int \dfrac{1}{e^{-y}+1} dy$ Re-write as: $\int (e^x+1) dx=\int \dfrac{e^y}{1+e^{y}} dy $ Plug $a=e^y \implies da=e^y dy$ Now, we have $ \int (e^{x}+1) dx=\int \dfrac{da}{1+a}$ and $e^x+x+c=\ln (1+a)$ Thus, $\ln (1+e^y)=e^x+x+c$
