My attempt
Let $f(x, y)=x \sqrt{y-3}$ then $f_y (x, y)= \frac{x}{2\sqrt{y-3}}$
We see that $f_y (x, y)$ does not exist at (4,3). We can't conclude whether the solution(s) exists or not.
Solving we get $y=3+(\frac{x²}{4}+c)²$
Using initial condition we get, $y=3+(\frac{x²}{4}-4)²$
But in my book it is given that $y =$ 3 is also a solution (but how to obtain this solution?)
I can't understand what is this? And what is missing solution? Please give me some hints. Thank you
