I am starting with describing the streamlines of velocity fields.



Let's work out the following example so as to see where I get stuck:



$$v(x, y, z) = x hati + y hatj - x hatk$$



Now we set up the differential equation for the field lines:



$$fracdxx = fracdyy = - fracdzx$$



From here on I do not understand why we do what we do; the solution states:




Thus, $z + x = C_1$, $y = C_2 x$. The streamlines are straight halflines emanating from the z-axis
and perpendicular to the vector $hati + hatk$




Please explain why.

    $dfracdxx=-dfracdzximplies dx+dz=0implies x+z=C_1$. You can get the second equation by equating $dfracdxx$ and $dfracdyy$ and integrating in a similar manner.
