Since the [[separation of variables]] in this case involves dividing by ''y'', we must check if the constant function ''y=0'' is a solution of the original equation. Trivially, if ''y=0'' then ''y'=0'', so ''y=0'' is actually a solution of the original equation. We note that ''y=0'' is not allowed in the transformed equation.
 
We solve the transformed equation with the variables already separated by [[Integral Calculus|Integrating]],
