Answer:  [tex]\displaystyle y = \frac{1}{9}(3x-1)^{6}+\frac{8}{9}\\\\[/tex]

=========================================================

Explanation:

Multiply dx on each side to move it over.

Doing so gets us to

[tex]dy = 2(kx-1)^5dx[/tex]

Next, integrate both sides with respect to the dy and dx terms

[tex]dy = 2(kx-1)^5dx\\\\ \displaystyle \int dy = \int 2(kx-1)^5dx\\\\ \displaystyle y = 2\int (kx-1)^5dx\\\\[/tex]

We can do a u-substitution here.

Let u = kx-1 which leads to du/dx = k which turns into [tex]du = kdx[/tex] and rearranges to [tex]dx = \frac{du}{k}[/tex]

So the steps continuing forward could look like

[tex]\displaystyle y = 2\int (kx-1)^5dx\\\\ \displaystyle y = 2\int u^5*\frac{du}{k}\\\\ \displaystyle y = \frac{2}{k}\int u^5du\\\\ \displaystyle y = \frac{2}{k}\left(\frac{1}{5+1}u^{5+1}+C\right)\\\\ \displaystyle y = \frac{2}{k}\left(\frac{1}{6}u^{6}+C\right)\\\\ \displaystyle y = \frac{2}{k}\left(\frac{1}{6}(kx-1)^{6}+C\right)\\\\[/tex]

Let's plug in (x,y) = (0,1) and do a bit of algebra and solve for C. We'll get some equation in terms of k on the right hand side

[tex]\displaystyle y = \frac{2}{k}\left(\frac{1}{6}(kx-1)^{6}+C\right)\\\\ \displaystyle 1 = \frac{2}{k}\left(\frac{1}{6}(k*0-1)^{6}+C\right)\\\\ \displaystyle 1 = \frac{2}{k}\left(\frac{1}{6}+C\right)\\\\ \displaystyle k = 2\left(\frac{1}{6}+C\right)\\\\ k = \frac{1}{3}+2C[/tex]

[tex]3k = 1+6C\\\\ 6C = 3k-1\\\\ C = \frac{3k-1}{6}\\\\[/tex]

Now let's plug in (x,y) = (1,8) along with that C value. Then solve for k to get an actual number.

[tex]\displaystyle y = \frac{2}{k}\left(\frac{1}{6}(kx-1)^{6}+C\right)\\\\ 8 = \frac{2}{k}\left(\frac{1}{6}(k*1-1)^{6}+\frac{3k-1}{6}\right)\\\\[/tex]

I'm skipping a bunch of steps, but you should get to [tex]k = 3[/tex] when solving that equation. You can use a graphing calculator to find the root of that function (think of k as the input x) and the x intercept is 3.

This leads to,

[tex]C = \frac{3k-1}{6}\\\\ C = \frac{3*3-1}{6}\\\\ C = \frac{8}{6}\\\\ C = \frac{4}{3}\\\\[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]\displaystyle y = \frac{2}{k}\left(\frac{1}{6}(kx-1)^{6}+C\right)\\\\ y = \frac{2}{3}\left(\frac{1}{6}(3x-1)^{6}+\frac{4}{3}\right)\\\\ \boldsymbol{y = \frac{1}{9}(3x-1)^{6}+\frac{8}{9}} \ \textbf{ which is the final answer}\\\\[/tex]

If k = 3, then,

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = 2(kx-1)^5\\\\ \displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = 2(3x-1)^5\\\\[/tex]

If you were to differentiate the answer function with respect to x, then you should get the dy/dx expression mentioned.
