(a) Solve the ODE y' - y/x = -x-1 cos (1/x). Find an initial condition for which the arbitrary constant becomes zero. Graph the resulting particular solution, experimenting to obtain a good figure near x = 0.

(b) Generalizing (a) from n = 1 to arbitrary n, solve the ODE y' - ny/x = -xn-2 cos (1/x). Find an initial condition as in (a) and experiment with the graph.
