Integration of two variable function
Note: This concept idea hasn't been proven yet or maybe mathematically incorrect. Any contribution would be greatly appreciated.
Basic Knowledge of Integration and Functions
In mathematics, usually we take `x` as independent variable and `y` as dependent variable. In General, a function is written as
`y=ax^2+bx+c`
If we differentiate the above function, we get:
`\frac{dy}{dx}=2ax+b `
i.e `dy=(2ax+b)dx `
Generally, a Integral function is written as:
`f(x)=\int (2ax+b) dx `
Note: There is a wrong perception that, Integration give area under function, but actually, Definite Integration give area under a given function `f(x)` and Indefinite Integration gives an entire family of functions with an infinite number of members.
Therefore, it is understood that:
`f(x)= \int dy=\int (2ax+b)dx`
So, After clearing the basic knowledge, we can see how to Integrate something like this:
`\int f(x,y) dx` (where both `x` and `y` are variable)
Integration of two variable function `F(x,y)`
Lets take an example function:
`f'(x,y) = 3x^2+y `
So, how to find: `\int (3x^2+y)dx`
As mentioned above, it is understood that it means:
`\frac{dy}{dx}=3x^2+y` (and we have to find its integral)
`\implies \frac{dy}{dx}-y=3x^2` (Rearranging the Equation)
Now we have convert the Integral Question, into a Differential Equation.
So, we can solve this using, P,Q Factor method (What is Factor Method ?)
`\frac{dy}{dx}-y=3x^2`
Let `P=(-1)` and `Q=3x^2`
Therefore:
Integral Factor `(I.F)`=`e^{\intP dx}`
`\implies (I.F)` = `e^{\int-1 dx}`
`\implies (I.F)` = `e^{-x}`
Hence our result is:
`y(I.F)=\int Q (I.F) dx`
`\implies ye^{-x}=\int 3x^2e^{-x} dx`
`\implies ye^{-x} =-3(x^2e^-x +2xe^-x +2e^-x) +C` (using By Parts)
`\implies ye^(-x)+3x^2e^{-x}+6xe^{-x}+6e^{-x}=C` (rearranging the equation)
`\implies \ln(e^{-x}(y+3x^2+6x+6))=\ln C` (taking log both the sides)
`\implies -x+\ln(y+3x^2+6x+6)=A`
Hence, `f(x,y)` = `-x+\ln(y+3x^2+6x+6)=A`
Fun Assignment: Differentiate the Above function, and you will get the original `f'(x,y)`
Nice conceptual visualisation
