In general, it may not be possible to find solutions of
,
where
is an arbitrary continuous function. But there are special cases
of the function
for which the above equation can be solved.
One such set of equations is
Integrating with respect to
where
By using partial fractions and integrating, we get
where
Observe that the solution is defined, only if
for
any
For example, if we let
then
exists as long as
