Ricatti Differential Equations:

Ricatti Equations come in the form of $$ \frac{dy}{dx} + P(x) = R(x)y^2 + Q(x) $$ Because you are still learning the fundementals, you will be given a hint to solve Ricatti, a particular solution. Using it, you will be able to convert the Ricatti D.E to a Linear D.E.
