Answer

$y=(\dfrac{-1}{\pi}) \tan(\pi e^{-\tau} ) +\dfrac{3}{\pi}$

Work Step by Step

Given: $\dfrac{dy}{dt}=e^{-\tau} \sec^2 (\pi e^{-\tau} )$ Here, $y=(-1/\pi)\int \sec^2 (\pi e^{-\tau} ) (-\pi e^{-\tau} ) d\tau$ Now, we have $y=(\dfrac{-1}{\pi}) \tan(\pi e^{-\tau} ) +c $ Apply the initial conditions $y[\ln (4)]=\dfrac{2}{\pi}$ $\dfrac{2}{\pi}=(\dfrac{-1}{\pi}) \tan(\pi e^{-\ln 4} ) +c \implies c=\dfrac{3}{\pi} $ Thus, we have $y=(\dfrac{-1}{\pi}) \tan(\pi e^{-\tau} ) +\dfrac{3}{\pi}$
