A separable differential equation is a first-order differential equation where the derivative dy/dx can be expressed as a product of two functions: one depending only on x and another only on y. This structure allows you to rearrange the equation so all y terms are on one side and all x terms are on the other, enabling independent integration of both sides.

To solve a separable differential equation, first separate variables by placing all y terms on one side and all x terms on the other. Then integrate both sides independently with respect to their own variables. This integration yields a relationship between x and y, which may be implicit or explicit depending on the functions involved.

The constant of integration appears when you integrate both sides of a separated equation. To find its specific value, you substitute an initial condition—a known value of y at a particular x—into the general solution. This yields a unique particular solution that satisfies both the differential equation and the initial condition.

Newton's cooling law states that the rate at which tea cools is proportional to the temperature difference between the tea and room. A negative sign indicates temperature decreases over time. This equation is separable because temperature terms and time terms can be rearranged to opposite sides, allowing separate integration to yield an exponential decay solution.

When you integrate and exponentiate both sides of a separated cooling equation, the general solution emerges as an exponential function. This exponential relationship means the temperature difference decays exponentially, causing the tea to cool quickly at first and then more slowly over time as it approaches room temperature.

A particular solution is a specific solution to a differential equation that satisfies both the equation and an initial condition. To find it, substitute a known value of y at a particular x into the general solution. This approach is especially useful in modeling with differential equations where initial values are known, such as in population growth or chemical reactions.

No, only separable first-order differential equations can be solved by separation of variables. A separable equation must allow rearrangement so that all y terms and dy are on one side and all x terms and dx are on the other. Non-separable equations require different solution methods and may be linear or involve other specialized techniques.
