Solution: We can construct a sketch for the vector field using Maple's fieldplot( ) command:
In order for F( x, y )= 0 to be valid, we must have
and
For this to occur, the first equation must have y = 0 or y = 2x, and the second must have x = 0 and y = 2x. Therefore, along the line y = 2x the statement F( x, y ) = 0 is valid.
The blurry image along the line y = 2 x in the graphic represents the fact that F (x, y) = 0 along this line.
