x = t x t , t > 0
I tried to solve it by:
x = 1 x t
d x = ( 1 x t ) d t
x = t x ln t + C
x = t 1 + l n t + C
But this doesn't seem right. What am I doing wrong? Also I'm supposed to determine the maximal interval around t=1, but how do I get rid of C?

Hint: Write the DE as
x t + x = t
then it becomes
( x t ) = t

You are treating x as a constant when you integrate x t . x is a fucntion of t.
Here is the correct solution: the equation can be written as ( t x ) = t. Hence t x = t 2 2 + C. So x ( t ) = t 2 + C t .
