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 we get
where is a constant. Hence, its implicit solution is
By using partial fractions and integrating, we get
where is a constant of integration.
Observe that the solution is defined, only if for any For example, if we let then exists as long as
