Differential Equations - Is the solution to $(e^y+1)^2e^{-y}dx+(e^x+1)^6e^{-x}dy=0$, $y=ln(-5(e^x+1)^5+c)$?

This is the problem. It is question 4. I typed the answer in explicit form, but my professor had said it is incorrect. Could someone check over my work, because I think I did have it correct. My Work



Because someone asked for my work due to bad handwriting:
$$(e^y+1)^2e^{-y}dx+(e^x+1)^6e^{-x}dy=0$$
Trying to seperate variables:
$$(e^y+1)^2(e^{-y})dx=-(e^x+1)^6(e^{-x})dy$$
$$frac{-e^x}{(e^x+1)^6}dx=frac{e^y}{(e^y+1)^2}dy$$
$$int{frac{-e^x}{(e^x+1)^6}dx}=int{frac{e^y}{(e^y+1)^2}dy}$$
Flip:
$$int{frac{e^y}{(e^y+1)^2}dy}=int{frac{-e^x}{(e^x+1)^6}dx}$$
where $u = (e^y+1), du =e^ydy$ and $v = (e^x+1), dv=e^xdx$
$$int{u^{-2}dy}=-int{v^{-6}}dx$$
$$-u^{-1} + c_1=frac{1}{5}v^{-5}+c_2$$
Now, substitute:
$$-frac{1}{e^y+1}+c_1=frac{1}{5(e^x+1)^5}+c_2$$
The $c$ gets absorbed (also, this is the implicit solution)
$$-frac{1}{e^y+1}=frac{1}{5(e^x+1)^5}+c_3$$
Multiply out:
$$-5(e^x+1)^5-c_3=e^y+1$$
But $-c_3$ is the same as $+c_3$
$$-5(e^x+1)^5+c_3=e^y+1$$
$$-5(e^x+1)^5+c_3=e^y$$
Take the natural log of both sides:
$$ln(-5(e^x+1)^5+c_3)=ln(e^y)$$
$$lnleft(-5(e^x+1)^5+c_3right)=y$$
This is the answer I got. It took long to convert this to Latex, so there might be some discontinuities in the work, but the last answer is for sure what I got.

    No, $-frac1a=frac1b+c$ is not equivalent to $-b-c=a$. Not even with a different constant.

The wrong step is here :




$$-frac{1}{e^y+1}=frac{1}{5(e^x+1)^5}+c_3$$
Multiply out:
$$-5(e^x+1)^5-c_3=e^y+1$$




The correct steps are :



Multiply both left-hand and right-hand terms by $(e^y+1)(5(e^x+1)^5)$
$$left(-frac{1}{e^y+1}right)(e^y+1)big(5(e^x+1)^5big)=left(frac{1}{5(e^x+1)^5}+c_3right)(e^y+1)big(5(e^x+1)^5big)$$
Simplify :



$$-big(5(e^x+1)^5big)=left(1+c_3 5(e^x+1)^5right)(e^y+1)$$



$$ e^y+1=frac{-5(e^x+1)^5}{1+ 5c_3(e^x+1)^5} $$



$$y=lnleft(frac{-5(e^x+1)^5}{1+c_3 5(e^x+1)^5}-1 right)$$

    The step from:
    $$ -frac{1}{e^y + 1} = frac{1}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_1 tag{1} $$
    to:
    $$ -5(e^x +1)^5-c_2 = e^y +1 tag{2}$$
    is wrong. Because if what you say is true then it implies that (1) and (2) are a tautology, but if you replace a term of (2) in (1):
    $$ -frac{1}{e^y + 1} = frac{1}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_3 $$
    $$ frac{1}{5(e^x +1)^5+c_2} = frac{1}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_3 $$
    $$ 1 = frac{5(e^x +1)^5+c_2}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_3big[5(e^x +1)^5+c_2big] $$
    $$ 1 = 1+frac{c_2}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_3big[5(e^x +1)^5+c_2big] $$
    $$ 0 = frac{c_2}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_3big[5(e^x +1)^5+c_2big] $$
    it is a polynomial equation if $u=e^x+1$, and the equation has a finite set of solutions of $u$ (thus $x$), and the set solution isn't a interval in $Bbb{R}$, thus the implication from (1) to (2) is false, becaus it doesn't have sense.

          The wrong step is here :




          $$-frac{1}{e^y+1}=frac{1}{5(e^x+1)^5}+c_3$$
          Multiply out:
          $$-5(e^x+1)^5-c_3=e^y+1$$




          The correct steps are :



          Multiply both left-hand and right-hand terms by $(e^y+1)(5(e^x+1)^5)$
          $$left(-frac{1}{e^y+1}right)(e^y+1)big(5(e^x+1)^5big)=left(frac{1}{5(e^x+1)^5}+c_3right)(e^y+1)big(5(e^x+1)^5big)$$
          Simplify :



          $$-big(5(e^x+1)^5big)=left(1+c_3 5(e^x+1)^5right)(e^y+1)$$



          $$ e^y+1=frac{-5(e^x+1)^5}{1+ 5c_3(e^x+1)^5} $$

              The step from:
              $$ -frac{1}{e^y + 1} = frac{1}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_1 tag{1} $$
              to:
              $$ -5(e^x +1)^5-c_2 = e^y +1 tag{2}$$
              is wrong. Because if what you say is true then it implies that (1) and (2) are a tautology, but if you replace a term of (2) in (1):
              $$ -frac{1}{e^y + 1} = frac{1}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_3 $$
              $$ frac{1}{5(e^x +1)^5+c_2} = frac{1}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_3 $$
              $$ 1 = frac{5(e^x +1)^5+c_2}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_3big[5(e^x +1)^5+c_2big] $$
              $$ 1 = 1+frac{c_2}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_3big[5(e^x +1)^5+c_2big] $$
              $$ 0 = frac{c_2}{5left(e^x+1right)^5} +c_3big[5(e^x +1)^5+c_2big] $$
              it is a polynomial equation if $u=e^x+1$, and the equation has a finite set of solutions of $u$ (thus $x$), and the set solution isn't a interval in $Bbb{R}$, thus the implication from (1) to (2) is false, becaus it doesn't have sense.
