What
is the solution of the differential equation
|
|
|
|
y
’ = ky ?
|
|
|
How
about the initial value problem
|
|
|
|
y ’ = ky , y(0) = y0 ?
|
|
|
As
noted previously, this differential equation is useful
|
|
for
talking about radioactive decay, compound interest
|
|
|
and
unrestricted population growth.
