$$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2y}{x} \hspace{10pt}\Leftrightarrow \hspace{10pt}\frac{dy}{2y}=\frac{dx}{x}$$ Now you just need to integrate.

0Indeed, that's what I wrote... – 2012-11-23

0okay that becomes $$\frac {y^2}{4}dy = \log xdx$$ am i right? – 2012-11-23

1No, That becomes $\frac12\ln y=\ln x+C$ and so $y=Cx^2$ – 2012-11-23
