    Let y=y(x)y = y(x) be a solution curve of the differential equation, (1−x2y2)dx=ydx+xdy\left( 1 -x^{2}y^{2} \right)dx = ydx + xdy. If the line x=1x = 1 intersects the curve y=y(x)y = y(x) at y=2y = 2 and the line x=2x = 2 intersects the curve y=y(x)y = y(x) at y=αy = \alpha, then a value of α\alpha is
