After solving the differential equation dydx=y2−9\dfrac{dy}{dx}=y^2-9, a student arrives at the relation ln⁡∣y−3y+3∣=2x+C\ln\left|\dfrac{y-3}{y+3}\right| = 2x + C. Which of the following is an equivalent explicit expression for the general solution y(x)y(x) valid on any interval where y≠±3y \neq \pm 3? a) y=31−Ce2x\displaystyle y = \dfrac{3}{1-Ce^{2x}} b) y=3 tanh⁡(3x+C)\displaystyle y = 3\,\tanh(3x+C) c) y=3 1+Ce2x1−Ce2xy = 3\,\dfrac{1+Ce^{2x}}{1-Ce^{2x}} d) y=3Ce2xy = 3Ce^{2x}
