What about the case of negative t (we employ a similar tric of transforming variables lie we did with Euler eq.) t y t ty t + t 1 y t = 0 when t < 0 We can do it just via change of variables: Let t dy dz dv dz dt dv dt dv d y d dz dv d z dt dv dv dt dv Let y v z v Plugging into the ODE: Let t v WE ENDED UP WITH ANOTHER EQUATION v z v vz v + v 1 z v = 0 WE SOLVE THIS ONE & THEN PLUG IN v = -t
