#y=x^2/4+2#

First, integrate both sides with respect to #x#.

#intdy/dxdx = int1/2xdx#

#intdy = 1/2intxdx#

#y + C_1 = x^2/4 + C_2#

#y = x^2/4 + C_2 - C_1#

Let #C = C_2 - C_1#

#y = x^2/4 + C#

Now, to figure out what C is, plug in known #x# and #y# values and solve for #C#.

#3 = 2^2/4 + C#

#3 = 1+C#

#2 = C#

So we can therefore write #y=f(x)# like this:

#y=x^2/4+2#
