Let $$x=x(y)$$ be the solution of the differential equation$$ y^{2}dx+\left( x-\frac{1}{y}\right)dy=0 $$ . If $$x(1)=1$$, then $$\frac{1}{2}$$ is :
The given differential equation is:
$$y^{2}dx + \left( x - \frac{1}{y} \right)dy = 0$$
Rearranging terms to express in standard linear form:
$$y^{2} \frac{dx}{dy} = -x + \frac{1}{y}$$
$$y^{2} \frac{dx}{dy} + x = \frac{1}{y}$$
Dividing both sides by $$y^{2}$$:
$$\frac{dx}{dy} + \frac{1}{y^{2}} x = \frac{1}{y^{3}}$$
This is a linear differential equation of the form:
$$\frac{dx}{dy} + P(y) x = Q(y)$$
where $$P(y) = \frac{1}{y^{2}}$$ and $$Q(y) = \frac{1}{y^{3}}$$.
To solve, use the integrating factor method. The integrating factor (IF) is:
$$IF = e^{\int P(y) dy} = e^{\int \frac{1}{y^{2}} dy}$$
Compute the integral:
$$\int \frac{1}{y^{2}} dy = \int y^{-2} dy = -y^{-1} = -\frac{1}{y}$$
Thus,
$$IF = e^{-\frac{1}{y}}$$
The solution is given by:
$$x \cdot (IF) = \int Q(y) \cdot (IF) dy + C$$
Substituting:
$$x \cdot e^{-\frac{1}{y}} = \int \frac{1}{y^{3}} e^{-\frac{1}{y}} dy + C$$
Evaluate the integral:
Let $$I = \int \frac{1}{y^{3}} e^{-\frac{1}{y}} dy$$
Use substitution: let $$u = -\frac{1}{y}$$, then $$du = \frac{1}{y^{2}} dy$$.
Now, $$\frac{1}{y} = -u$$, so:
$$\frac{1}{y^{3}} dy = \frac{1}{y} \cdot \frac{1}{y^{2}} dy = (-u) du$$
Thus,
$$I = \int (-u) e^{u} du = -\int u e^{u} du$$
Integrate by parts: let $$v = u$$, $$dw = e^{u} du$$, so $$dv = du$$, $$w = e^{u}$$.
Then,
$$\int u e^{u} du = u e^{u} - \int e^{u} du = u e^{u} - e^{u} + C_1 = e^{u} (u - 1) + C_1$$
Therefore,
$$I = - \left[ e^{u} (u - 1) \right] + C = -e^{u} (u - 1) + C$$
Substitute back $$u = -\frac{1}{y}$$:
$$I = -e^{-\frac{1}{y}} \left( -\frac{1}{y} - 1 \right) + C = -e^{-\frac{1}{y}} \left( -\left( \frac{1}{y} + 1 \right) \right) + C = e^{-\frac{1}{y}} \left(1 + \frac{1}{y}\right) + C$$
So,
$$x \cdot e^{-\frac{1}{y}} = e^{-\frac{1}{y}} \left(1 + \frac{1}{y}\right) + C$$
Dividing both sides by $$e^{-\frac{1}{y}}$$:
$$x = 1 + \frac{1}{y} + C e^{\frac{1}{y}}$$
This is the general solution.
Apply the initial condition: when $$y = 1$$, $$x = 1$$.
Substitute:
$$1 = 1 + \frac{1}{1} + C e^{\frac{1}{1}}$$
$$1 = 1 + 1 + C e$$
$$1 = 2 + C e$$
$$C e = -1$$
$$C = -\frac{1}{e}$$
Thus, the particular solution is:
$$x = 1 + \frac{1}{y} - \frac{1}{e} e^{\frac{1}{y}} = 1 + \frac{1}{y} - e^{\frac{1}{y} - 1}$$
Now, find $$x\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)$$ by substituting $$y = \frac{1}{2}$$:
$$x\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = 1 + \frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}} - e^{\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}} - 1}$$
$$= 1 + 2 - e^{2 - 1}$$
$$= 3 - e^{1}$$
$$= 3 - e$$
The value of $$x\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)$$ is $$3 - e$$, which corresponds to option C.
