Your equation is not a differential equation. Retransmit with the right DE and we'll look at it.
The differential equation would be an equation that contains the derivative dy%2Fdx or the differentials dx and dy. There's none of those in your equation. You do have a boundary value condition though. (y(1) = -1)
