 I've been challenged to solve the following equation 
    y^2 dy/dx - Ay + B(1-x) = 0

    y(x), x on (0,1), A & B constant.
  
    y(1) = 0
 
 If I can get the solution, my friend promises a 'prize'
 of some sort. He said I can use ANY means to solve it
 which means the net is fair game. I'll be happy to give
 the first  one to get it a cut if the prize turns
 out to be something divisible (knowing my friend, it might
 not be something you'd WANT). 

   p.s. - is it true that you couldn't prove there was no solution
	  to such an equation?
  
		 Thanks!
