Let \(y=y(x)\) be the solution of the differential equation \(\frac{dy}{dx}+3\left({\tan }^{2}x\right)y+3y={\sec }^{2}x\), \(y(0)=\frac{1}{3}+{e}^{3}\). Then \(y\left(\frac{\pi }{4}\right)\) is equal to

\(\frac{4}{3}\)
Equation:
\(\frac{dy}{dx}+3{\tan }^{2}x\text{ }y+3y={\sec }^{2}x\)
Note \(3{\tan }^{2}x+3=3({\tan }^{2}x+1)=3{\sec }^{2}x\), so
\(\frac{dy}{dx}+3{\sec }^{2}x\text{ }y={\sec }^{2}x\)
Integrating factor:
\(\mu (x)={e}^{\int 3{\sec }^{2}x\text{ }dx}={e}^{3\tan x}\)
Thus
\(\frac{d}{dx}(y{e}^{3\tan x})={\sec }^{2}x\text{ }{e}^{3\tan x}\)
Let \(t=\tan x\), \(dt={\sec }^{2}x\text{ }dx\):
\(y{e}^{3t}=\int {e}^{3t}dt+C=\frac{1}{3}{e}^{3t}+C\) \(\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{3}+C{e}^{−3\tan x}\)
Use \(y(0)=\frac{1}{3}+{e}^{3}\) and \(\tan 0=0\):
\(\frac{1}{3}+C=\frac{1}{3}+{e}^{3}\Rightarrow C={e}^{3}\)
So
\(y(x)=\frac{1}{3}+{e}^{3}{e}^{−3\tan x}\)
At \(x=\frac{\pi }{4}\), \(\tan \frac{\pi }{4}=1\):
\(y(\frac{\pi }{4})=\frac{1}{3}+{e}^{3}{e}^{−3}=\frac{1}{3}+1=\frac{4}{3}\)
