Now I solved this, by differentiating the former equation to getand using
But if I solve differentiating the equation infirst, I get
and using the second ODE above, y=
why are the answers different, are both acceptable ?

Has to do with arbitrary constant A and B and the usual idea of stuff getting absorbed into them. Either answer is fine.
