Let us consider the following differential equation $$ \dot{x}(t)=a - b\sin(x(t)). $$$$ \dot{x}(t)=a - b\sin(x(t)), \quad a,b\in\mathbb{R}. $$
My question. Suppose $a>|b|$ and $x(0)=x_0\in\mathbb{R}$. Can the solution to the above equation be written in the form $$ x(t) = at + r(a,t), $$ where the term $r(a,t)$ is such that $r(a,t)\to 0$ for $a\to \infty$?
PS: Of course, the explicit solution can be computed via symbolic software tools, such as Wolfram Alpha. However, the symbolic expression (see here) looks quite messy and does not give much information on the behavior of the solution for $a\to\infty$...
