MCQ
Choose the correct answer from the given four options.The general solution of the differential equation $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\ \text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}+\text{xy}$ is:
  • A
    $\text{y}=\text{c}\text{e}^{\frac{-\text{x}^2}{2}}$
  • B
    $\text{y}=\text{c}\text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}$
  • $\text{y}=(\text{x}+\text{c})\text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}$
  • D
    $\text{y}=(\text{c}-\text{x})\text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\text{y}=(\text{x}+\text{c})\text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}$
Given that, $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\ \text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}+\text{xy}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}-\text{xy}=\text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}$

It is a linear differential equation.

Here, $\text{P}=-\text{x},\text{ Q}=\text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}$

$\therefore\text{I.F.}=\text{e}^{\int-\text{xdx}}=\text{e}^{\frac{-\text{x}^2}{2}}$

The general solution is

$\text{y}\text{e}^{\frac{-\text{x}^2}{2}}=\int\text{e}^{\frac{-\text{x}^2}{2}}.\text{e}^{\frac{-\text{x}^2}{2}}\text{dx}+\text{c}$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}{\text{e}}^{\frac{-\text{x}^2}{2}}=\int1\text{dx}+\text{c}$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}\text{e}^{\frac{-\text{x}^2}{2}}=\text{x}+\text{c}$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\text{x}\text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}+\text{c}\text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}=(\text{x}+\text{c})\text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}^2}{2}}$
