To solve this equation, multiply by `y` and integrate:
`yy' = -9/16 x,` `int yy' dx = int (-9/16 x) dx,`
`y^2/2 = -9/32 x^2 + C,` or `y = +-sqrt(C - 9/16 x^2),`
where `C` is an arbitrary constant.
We need to find a suitable constant `C` using the given point. The condition is `y(1) = 1,` or
`1 = +-sqrt(C - 9/16)` (+ is before the radical obviously).
This gives us `1 = C - 9/16,` so `C = 25/16` and the final answer is
`y(x) = +-sqrt(25/16 - 9/16 x^2).`
