Differential Equations are a special type of integration
By studying the techniques in this chapter, you will be able to solve a greater variety of applied calculus problems.
Some of the techniques may look a bit scary at first sight, but they are just the opposite of the basic differentiation formulas and transcendental differentiation formulas.
Also, the methods in this chapter are based on the General Power Formula for Integration which we met before.
Good luck!
