It is given that

y(t)=2t2y21,y(0)=0y^\prime(t)=\frac{2t^2}{y^2-1}\,\, , \,\, y(0)=0

To solve the initial value problem we will first transform the equation above into its separable form:

dydt=2t2y21(y21)dy=2t2dt(y21)dy=2t2dty2dydy=2t33+Cy33y=23t3+Cy33y=2t3+C\begin{align*} \frac{dy}{dt}&=\frac{2t^2}{y^2-1}\\ (y^2-1)\, dy&=2t^2\, dt\tag{\footnotesize\textcolor{#c34632}{integrate both sides}}\\ \int (y^2-1)\, dy&=2\int t^2\, dt\\ \int y^2\, dy-\int \, dy&=2\cdot \frac{t^3}{3}+C\\ \frac{y^3}{3}-y&=\frac{2}{3}\cdot t^3+C \\ y^3-3y&=2t^3+C \end{align*}

To find the constant CC we will use the given initial condition y(0)=0y(0)=0:

y(0)=00=0+CC=0y(0)=0\Rightarrow 0=0+C\Rightarrow C=0

We conclude that the solution to the initial value problem is

y33y=2t3\pmb{y^3-3y=2t^3}

The plot of the curve described by the solution in implicit form is given bellow.
