The general solution of the differential equation

Question:

The general solution of the differential equation $\frac{d y}{d x}=e^{x+y}$ is

A. $e^{x}+e^{-y}=\mathrm{C}$

B. $e^{x}+e^{y}=\mathrm{C}$

C. $e^{-x}+e^{y}=\mathrm{C}$

D. $e^{-x}+e^{-y}=\mathrm{C}$

 

Solution:

$\frac{d y}{d x}=e^{x+y}=e^{x} \cdot e^{y}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{e^{y}}=e^{x} d x$

$\Rightarrow e^{-y} d y=e^{x} d x$

Integrating both sides, we get:

$\int e^{-y} d y=\int e^{x} d x$

$\Rightarrow-e^{-y}=e^{x}+k$

$\Rightarrow e^{x}+e^{-y}=-k$

$\Rightarrow e^{x}+e^{-y}=c$                  $(c=-k)$

Hence, the correct answer is A.
