AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Create a slope field and several solution curves for a first-order differential equation. Begin by displaying the slope field across the coordinate plane, using short line segments to indicate tangent directions at each point. Then, from multiple distinct starting points, draw solution curves that smoothly follow the field, each taking a different path based on its initial condition. Additionally, include adjustable input boxes around the plot for modifying the equation and the x- and y-axis ranges, allowing dynamic exploration of how the field and curves change. The overall layout should be clear for analyzing the geometric behavior of the differential equation.
