Let u = x + y
8 d x d y = u [ 1 ]
d x d u = 1 + d x d y [ 2 ]
8 d x d y d x = u d x
8 d y = u d x [ 3 ]
d x d y = 8 u
From[2] and [3]
d x d u = 1 + d x d y = 1 + 8 u
d x = 1 + 8 u d u
Substituting into [3]
8 d y = u 1 + 8 u d u
1 + 8 u = 8 8 + u
8 d y = 8 u 8 + u d u
d y = u 8 + u d u
∫ d y = ∫ u 8 + u d u
∫ d y = ∫ [ 8 + u − 8 + 1 ] d u
y = − 8 l n ( 8 + u ) + u + C
y = − 8 ln ( 8 + x + y ) + x + y + C
− 8 l n ( 8 + x + y ) = x + C
Substituting x=-3 and y=-4
− 8 ln ( 8 − 3 − 4 ) = − 3 + C
− 8 l n ( 1 ) = − 3 + C
− 3 + C = 0
C = 3
