answer
y'=(1-x^2)/(x*y)

Explanation:

i think that wanted
xy*y'=1-x^2

y'=(1-x^2)/(x*y)

y=sqrt(2lnx-x^2-c_1)

Explanation:

First rewrite the differential equation. (Assume y' is just dy/dx):
xydy/dx=1-x^2

Next, separate the x's and y's- just divide both sides by x and multiply both sides by dx to get:
ydy=(1-x^2)/xdx

Now we can integrate both sides and solve for y:
intydy=int(1-x^2)/xdx
intydy=int1/xdx-intx^2/xdx
y^2/2+c=lnx-intxdx
(You only need to put the constant on one side because they cancel each other out into just one c.)

(Solving for y):
y^2/2=lnx-x^2/2-c
y^2=2lnx-x^2-c_1 . (Can change to c_1 after multiplying by 2)
y=sqrt(2lnx-x^2-c_1)
