    Default How in the world do I solve this differential equation?

    dy/dx = x(x-y)

    I've been staring at this for the past half hour, and I'm completely stumped. I can't separate the variables, but I can't integrate it in this form either. I don't know what to do.

    EDIT: I feel dumb now. This is dy/dx + P(x)y=Q(x).

    Am I correct in thinking that P(x) can = x?
