solve the initial value problem:
x'=x^3 x(1)=1
my work
dx/x^3 =dt
then I integrated wrt t and obtained
x^(-2) = t + c(c0nstant)
where then
this is 1/x^2 =t+c
1/x = square root of (t+c)
then
x= 1/sqrt(t+c)
now when i apply the Initial value problem i get c = 0 and that is incorrect. where am i going wrong
