Answer

$y=\frac{\ln (C-2e^{-x})}{2}$

Work Step by Step

We are given: $$e^{2x+y}dy-e^{x-y}dx=0$$ We can write it as: $$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{e^{x-y}}{e^{2x+y}}$$ $$\frac{dy}{dx}=e^{-x-2y}$$ Integrating both sides: $$\int \frac{dy}{dx}=\int e^{-x-2y}$$ $$\frac{1}{2}e^{2y}=-e^{-x}+C$$ $$e^{2y}=-2e^{-x}+C$$ $$2y=\ln(-2e^{-x}+C)$$ Hence general solution is $y=\frac{\ln (C-2e^{-x})}{2}$
