    I have a differential question but unsure how my teachers notes went like this, .

    1=1/2e^(2pi)-1+c

    Next line he gets,

    C=2-1/2e^(2pi)

    How did he swap it around to get the answer please?

    Hi op. Hopefully you can follow this:

    [latex]1=\frac{1}{2}e^{2\pi}-1+c [/latex]
    Subtract c from both sides we get:
    [latex]1-c=\frac{1}{2}e^{2\pi}-1 [/latex]
    Subtract 1 from both sides to get:
    [latex]-c=\frac{1}{2}e^{2\pi}-2 [/latex]
    Multiply both sides by -1:
    [latex]c=2-\frac{1}{2}e^{2\pi} [/latex]
