Find the general solution
\begin{multline*}
\bigl(2xy \cos(y)-y^2\cos(x)\bigr)\,dx +
\bigl(2x^2\cos(y)-yx^2\sin(y)-3y\sin(x)-5y^3\bigr)\,dy=0\,.
\end{multline*}
Hint. Use the integrating factor.

First we find the integrating factor.
Note that
\begin{equation}
M_y=2x\cdot\cos(y) - 2xy\cdot\sin(y) - 2y\cdot\cos(x)
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
N_x=4x\cdot\cos(y) - 2xy\cdot\sin(y) - 3y\cdot\cos(x)
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
N_x - M_y=2x\cdot\cos(y) - y\cdot\cos(x)
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
(N_x - M_y)/M=1/y
\end{equation}
Therefore, the integrating factor is only dependent on y.
\begin{equation}
\ln u= \ln y
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
u(y)= y
\end{equation}
Multiply u(y) on both sides of the equation. Then we have
\begin{equation}
\phi_x=2xy^2\cos(y) - y^3\cos(x)
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
\phi=x^2y^2\cos(y) -y^3\sin(x) +h(y)
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
\phi_y=2x^2y\cos(y) -x^2y^2\sin(y) - 3y^2\sin(x) +h^\prime(y)
\end{equation}
By comparison, we get
\begin{equation}
h^\prime(y)=-5y^4
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
h^\prime(y)=-y^5
\end{equation}
Then we have
\begin{equation}
\phi=x^2y^2\cos(y)-y^3\sin(x) -y^5
\end{equation}
The general solution is
\begin{equation}
\phi=x^2y^2\cos(y)-y^3\sin(x) -y^5=c
\end{equation}

Actually Professor I remember on the test the last term is -5y^4 instead of -5y^3. I'm not sure whether I'm correct.

It is $-5y^3$.

Yes you are right and the solution is corresponding to the case $-5y^3$.

I think the solution is wrong, my h(y) was coming out to be just a constant, c

I checked my solution again and didn't find something wrong. So maybe we should leave it to the Prof.

There is a mistake in step (9)
the first term should be 2y(x^2)cosy instead of 2x(y^2)cosy

Thanks and I've changed it
