I have the following differential equation problem but I couldn't proceed any further -
d y d x = a   y x 1   b   ( 1 x ) n ( y 1 y ) m
where, x [ 0 , 1 ]   and   y [ 0 , 1 ]
But I can't solve it down.
I have tried y = u y 1       where ,   y 1 = x n m  , but it didn't help.
Wolfram gives the solution as -
y ( x ) = c 1 exp ( a x b x m n + 1 ( x + 1 ) m d x )
How to simplify the integral?
I just wanted a hint that whether it can be solved? If yes, please just tell me what am I doing wrong.

d y d x = a   y x 1   b   ( 1 x ) n ( y 1 y ) m
Consider x instead of y . Then this is Bernoulli's differential equation:
a y d x d y = x   b   x 1 n ( y 1 y ) m

d y d x = a   y x 1   b   ( 1 x ) n ( y 1 y ) m
d x d y = x a   y + b a y m 1 ( 1 y ) m x 1 n
x n 1 d x d y = x n a   y + b a y m 1 ( 1 y ) m
Let X = x n
1 n d X d y = X a   y + b a y m 1 ( 1 y ) m
This is a first order lineaer ODE. Solving it involves an integral which closed form is an hypergeometric function.
X ( y ) = C y n / a + b   n a   m + n y m 2 F 1 ( m , m + n a ; m + n a + 1 ; y )
C is an arbitrary constant.
2 F 1 denotes the Gauss hypergeometric function.
x ( y ) = ( C y n / a + b   n a   m + n y m 2 F 1 ( m , m + n a ; m + n a + 1 ; y ) ) 1 / n
y ( x ) is the inverse function of the above.
