Solving separable differential equations by formal computations When solving a separable differential equation we move from the original equation N(y)(dy)/(dx)=M(x) to N(y)dy=M(x)dx Then we integrate both sides. My question is how precise is the expression N(y)dy=M(x)dx ? is it a formal writing to simplify computation and get quickly into integrating both sides or is it a precise mathematical expression that has a precise mathematical meaning but goes beyond an introductory course on differential equations? Thanks for your help !

The rate at which a body cools is proportional to the difference in 
temperature between the body and its surroundings. If a body in air 
at 0℃ will cool from 200℃ 𝑡𝑜 100℃ in 40 minutes, how many more 
minutes will it take the body to cool from 100℃ 𝑡𝑜 50℃ ?

Find the inverse Laplace transform of $\frac{s^2-<!--\; -\; -->4s-<!--\; -\; -->4}{s^4+8s^2+16}$

inverse laplace transform - with symbolic variables:
$F(s)=\frac{2s^2+(a-<!--\; -\; -->6b)s+a^2-<!--\; -\; -->4ab}{(s^2-<!--\; -\; -->a^2)(s-<!--\; -\; -->2b)}$
My steps:
$F(s)=\frac{2s^2+(a-<!--\; -\; -->6b)s+a^2-<!--\; -\; -->4ab}{(s+a)(s-<!--\; -\; -->a)(s-<!--\; -\; -->2b)}$
$=\frac{A}{s+a}+\frac{B}{s-<!--\; -\; -->a}+\frac{C}{s-<!--\; -\; -->2b}+K$
$K=0$
$A=F(s)\ast <!--\; \ast \; -->(s+a)$
