Let \(y=y(x)\) be the solution of the differential equation:\(\frac{dy}{dx}+\left(\frac{6{x}^{2}+\left(3{x}^{2}+2{x}^{3}+4\right){e}^{-2x}}{\left({x}^{3}+2\right)\left(2+{e}^{-2x}\right)}\right)y=2+{e}^{-2x},x\in \left(-1,2\right)\), satisfying \(y(0)=\frac{3}{2}\). If \(y(1)=\alpha \left(2+{\mathrm{e}}^{-2}\right)\), then \(\alpha\) is equal to:

a

\(\frac{13}{8}\)

b

\(\frac{6}{13}\)

c

\(\frac{12}{13}\)

d

\(\frac{13}{12}\)

✓ Correct answer: d)

\(\frac{13}{12}\)

Explanation

\(\frac{d y}{d x}+P(x) y=Q(x)\)

\(Q(x)=2+e^{-2 x}\)

\(P(x)=\frac{3 x^2\left(2+e^{-2 x}\right)+2 e^{-2 x}\left(x^3+2\right)}{\left(x^3+2\right)\left(2+e^{-2 x}\right)}\)

\(=\frac{3 x^2}{x^3+2}+\frac{2 e^{-2 x}}{2+e^{-2 x}}\)

Integrating factor \(=e^{\int P(x) d x}=e^{\int \frac{3 x^2}{x^3+2} d x+\int \frac{2 e^{-2 x}}{2+e^{-2 x}} d x}=\frac{x^3+2}{2+e^{-2 x}}\)

\(\Rightarrow \frac{y \cdot\left(x^3+2\right)}{2+e^{-2 x}}=\int\left(x^3+2\right) d x+C=\frac{x^4}{4}+2 x+C\)

\(\because y(0)=\frac{3}{2} \Rightarrow C=1\)

\(\Rightarrow \frac{y \cdot\left(x^3+2\right)}{2+e^{-2 x}}=\frac{x^4}{4}+2 x+1\)

Now,

\(\Rightarrow \frac{y(1) \cdot 3}{2+e^{-2}}=\frac{13}{4}\)

\(\Rightarrow y(1)=\frac{13}{12}\left(2+e^{-2}\right)\)

\( \Rightarrow \alpha=\frac{13}{12}\)
