Question
In each of the verify that the given function (explicit or implicit) is a solution of the corresponding differential equation:
$\text{y} = \text{x}^2 + 2\text{x} +\text{C}\ :\ \text{y}' – 2\text{x} – 2 = 0$

Answer

Given: $y = x^2 + 2x + C .....(i)$
To prove: y is a solution of the differential equation $y' - 2x - 2 = 0 .....(ii)$
Proof: From eq. $y' = 2x + 2$
$\therefore$ L.H.S. of eq. $(ii), y' - 2x - 2 = (2x + 2) - 2x - 2$
$= 2x + 2 - 2x - 2 = 0 =$ R.H.S.
Hence, $y$ given by eq. $(i)$ is a solution of $y' - 2x - 2 = 0.$
