d x d y = d t d y ⋅ d x d t
∴ d t d y ⋅ d x d t = 2 t
d x 3 d 3 y = d x d ( d x 2 d 2 y ) = d t d ( d x 2 d 2 y ) ⋅ d x d t
∴ d t d ( d x 2 d 2 y ) ⋅ d x d t = t 3
⎩ ⎪ ⎨ ⎪ ⎧ d t d y ⋅ d x d t = 2 t d t d ( d x 2 d 2 y ) ⋅ d x d t = t 3
d t d y ⋅ d x d t d t d ( d x 2 d 2 y ) ⋅ d x d t = 2 t t 3
d t d y d t d ( d x 2 d 2 y ) = 2 t t 3
2 t ⋅ d t d x d t d ( d x 2 d 2 y ) = 2 t t 3
d t d x d t d ( d x 2 d 2 y ) = t 3
d x 2 d 2 y = d x d ( d x d y ) = d t d ( d x d y ) ⋅ d x d t = d t d ( 2 t ) ⋅ d x d t = 2 d x d t
∴ d t d x d t d ( 2 d x d t ) = t 3
d t d x d t d ( 2 ⋅ d t d x 1 ) = t 3
d t d x ( d t d x ) 2 − 2 ⋅ d t 2 d 2 x = t 3
Let d t d x = z
⇒ d t d ( d t d x ) = d t d z
∴ d t 2 d 2 x = d t d z
z 3 − 2 d t d z = t 3
∫ z 3 − 2 d z = ∫ t 3 d t
z 2 1 = 4 1 ⋅ t 4 + c 1
When t = 2 , d t d x = − 2 1
When t = 2 , z = − 2 1
( − 2 1 ) 2 1 = 4 1 ⋅ 2 4 + c 1
4 = 4 + c 1
c 1 = 0
∴ z 2 1 = 4 1 ⋅ t 4
∣ d t d x ∣ + d t d x = 0
∣ z ∣ + z = 0
⇒ ∣ z ∣ = − z
∴ z < 0
∴ z 1 = 2 − 1 ⋅ t 2
d t d x 1 = 2 − 1 ⋅ t 2
d x d t = 2 − 1 ⋅ t 2
∫ t 2 − 1 d t = 2 1 ∫ 1 d x
t 1 = 2 x + c 2
When t = 2 , x = 1
2 1 = 2 1 + c 2
c 2 = 0
∴ t 1 = 2 x
d t d y ⋅ d x d t = 2 t
d t d y ⋅ 2 − 1 ⋅ t 2 = 2 t
d t d y = 2 t ⋅ − 2 ⋅ t 2 1
d t d y = t − 4
y = − 4 l n ∣ t ∣ + c 3
When t = 1 , y = 0
0 = − 4 l n ∣ 1 ∣ + c 3
c 3 = 0
∴ y = − 4 l n ∣ t ∣
y = l n ( t 1 ) 4
y = l n ( 2 x ) 4
{ y = f ( x ) e y = x 2
⇒ ⎩ ⎨ ⎧ y = l n ( 2 x ) 4 e y = x 2
⇒ ⎩ ⎨ ⎧ e y = ( 2 x ) 4 e y = x 2
∴ ( 2 x ) 4 = x 2
1 6 x 4 = x 2
x 4 = 1 6 x 2
∵ x > 0 , ∴ x = 0
∴ x 2 = 1 6
x > 0 , ∴ x = 4
When x = 4 ,
y = l n ( 2 4 ) 4 = l n ( 2 ) 4 = l n 1 6
∴ p + q = 4 + 1 6 = 2 0
