Chapter 2: Problem 18
Let \(M=2 y \sin x \cos x-y+2 y^{2} e^{x y^{2}}\) and \(N=-x+\sin ^{2} x+4 x y e^{x y^{2}}\) so that $$M_{y}=2 \sin x \cos x-1+4 x y^{3} e^{x y^{2}}+4 y e^{x y^{2}}=N_{x}$$ From \(f_{x}=2 y \sin x \cos x-y+2 y^{2} e^{x y^{2}}\) we obtain \(f=y \sin ^{2} x-x y+2 e^{x y^{2}}+h(y), h^{\prime}(y)=0,\) and \(h(y)=0\) solution is \(y \sin ^{2} x-x y+2 e^{x y^{2}}=c\)

Key Concepts
These are the key concepts you need to understand to accurately answer the question.
Potential Function
- Integrating \( M \) with respect to \( x \)
- Adding a function of \( y \), usually denoted as \( h(y) \), to incorporate terms related only to \( y \)
Exactness Condition
Differential Equation Solution
- \( f(x, y) = c \)
Integration of Partial Derivatives
- Start by integrating \( M \) with respect to \( x \) to obtain a preliminary potential function. This step accounts for the \( x \)-dependent part of the potential function.
- Don't forget to add \( h(y) \), a function of \( y \), since integration in terms of \( x \) may miss terms involving only \( y \).
- Differentiate this integrated function with respect to \( y \) to determine any missing terms and compare with \( N \).
- Finally, solve for \( h(y) \) by setting the differential of the preliminary function equal to \( N \), ensuring that all terms align correctly.
