Answer
  1. $\log\text{x}$

Solution:

We have,

$(\text{x}\log\text{x})\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}=2\ \log\text{x}$

Dividing both sides by,

$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}+\log\text{x}}=\frac{2}{\text{x}}$ 

$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\Big(\frac{\text{1}}{\text{x}+\log\text{x}}\Big)\text{y}=\frac{2}{\text{x}}$

Comparing with $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{Py}=\text{Q}$

$\text{P}=\frac{1}{\text{x}\log\text{x}}$

$\text{Q}=\frac{2}{\text{x}}$

Now, 

$\text{I.F}=\text{e}^{\int\text{P}\text{dx}}$

$\text{I.F}=\text{e}^{\int\frac{1}{\text{x}\log\text{x}}}\text{dx}$

$=\text{e}^{\log(\log\text{x})}$

Question 571 Mark
The solution of the differention $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+1=\text{e}^{\text{x}+\text{y}}$ is:
  1. $(\text{x}+\text{y})\text{e}^{\text{x}+\text{y}}=0$
  2. $(\text{x}+\text{C})\text{e}^{\text{x}+\text{y}}=0$
  3. $(\text{x}-\text{C})\text{e}^{\text{x}+\text{y}}=1$
  4. $(\text{x}-\text{C})\text{e}^{\text{x}+\text{y}}+1=0$ 
Answer
  1. $(\text{x}-\text{C})\text{e}^{\text{x}+\text{y}}+1=0$

Solution:

We have,

$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+1=\text{e}^{\text{x}+\text{y}}$

Let $\text{x}+\text{y}=\text{u}$

$\Rightarrow 1+\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+1=\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{e}^{\text{u}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{e}^{-\text{u}}\text{du}=\text{dx}$

Intergrating both sides, we get

$\Rightarrow \text{e}^{-\text{u}}=\text{x}-\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow -1=\text{e}^{-\text{u}}(\text{x}-\text{C})$

$\Rightarrow (\text{x}-\text{C})\text{e}^{\text{x}+\text{y}}+1=0$

$=\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\frac{1}{\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)2}\text{y}\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2$

$=\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}^3+1$

For the given differential equation the highest order derivative is 1.

Now, the power of the highest order derivative is 3.

We know that the degree of a differential equation is the power of the highest derivative.

Hence, the degree of the differential equation is 3.

  1. 1, 2
  2. 2, 1
  3. 1, 4
  4. 4, 1
Answer
  1. 4, 1

Solution:

Concept:

Order: The order of a differential equation is the order of the highest derivative appearing in it.

Degree: The degree of a differential equation is the power of the highest derivative occurring in it, after the Equation has been expressed in a form free from radicals as far as the derivatives are concerned.

Note:

Degree is defined if function is a polynomial, if differential contains logarithmic, exponential and trigonometric function of the highest derivative, then degree is not defined.

Degree and order is always a positive integer.

Calculation:

Given: $\text{y}=\text{x}\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2\Big(\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{dy}}\Big)^{-2}$

To find: Order & Degree

$\text{y}=\text{x}\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2\frac{1}{\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2}$

$\text{y}=\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2=\text{x}\Big(\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{dy}}\Big)^4+1$

Hence, the degree is 4 & order is 1.

Answer
  1.  3

Solution:

Given, the differential equation is:

$\Big(1+\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{dy}}\Big)^3=\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2$

We can expand it and get:

$1+3\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{dy}}^3+3\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2+\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^3=\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2$

The exponent of highest derivative is the degree. Therefore, the degree is 3.

Question 681 Mark
Choose the correct answer from the given four option.
The solution of $\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}+\text{y}=\text{e}^{\text{-x}},\text{ y}(0)$is:
  1. $\text{y}=\text{e}^{\text{x}}(\text{x}-1)$
  2. $\text{y}=\text{x}\text{e}^{-\text{x}}$
  3. $\text{y}=\text{x}\text{e}^{\text{x}}+1$
  4. $\text{y}=(\text{x}+1)\text{e}^{-\text{x}}$
Answer
  1. $\text{y}=\text{x}\text{e}^{-\text{x}}$

Solution:

We have, $\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}+\text{y}=\text{e}^{\text{-x}}$

This is a linear differential equation.

On comparing it with $\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}+\text{P}\text{y}=\text{Q},$we get

$\text{P}=1,\text{Q}=\text{e}^{-\text{x}}$

$\text{I.F.}=\text{e}^{\int\text{Pdx}}=\text{e}^{{\int\text{dx}}}​​$

So, the general solution is,

$\text{y}.\text{e}^{\text{x}}=\int\text{e}^{-\text{x}}\text{e}^{\text{x}}\text{dx}+\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}.\text{e}^{\text{x}}=\int\text{dx}+\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}.\text{e}^{\text{x}}=\text{x}+\text{C}$

Given that when x = 0 and y = 0

$\Rightarrow0 = 0 + \text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\text{C}=0$

Eq. (i) becomes $\text{y}.\text{e}^{\text{x}}=\text{x}$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\text{x}\text{e}^{-\text{x}}$

  4. $\tan\text{x}.\tan\text{y}=\text{k}$
Answer
  1. $\tan\text{x}.\tan\text{y}=\text{k}$

Solution:

We have, $\tan\text{y}\sec^2\text{xdx} + \tan\text{x }\sec^2\text{ydy}=0$

$\Rightarrow\tan\text{y}\sec^2\text{xdx} =- \tan\text{x }\sec^2\text{ydy}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\sec^2\text{x}}{\tan\text{x}}\text{dx}=-\frac{\sec^2\text{y}}{\tan\text{y}}\text{dy}$

$\Rightarrow\int\frac{\sec^2\text{x}}{\tan\text{x}}\text{dx}=-\int\frac{\sec^2\text{y}}{\tan\text{y}}\text{dy}$

$\Rightarrow\log\tan\text{x}=-\log\tan\text{y}+\log\text{k}$

$\Rightarrow\log\tan\text{x}+\log\tan\text{y}=\log\text{k}$

$\Rightarrow\log(\tan\text{x}\tan\text{y})=\log\text{k}$

$\Rightarrow\tan\text{x}\tan\text{y}=\text{k}$

  1. xy = C
  2. x = Cy2
  3. y = Cx
  4. y = Cx2
Answer
  1. y =Cx

Solution:

We have,

$\frac{\text{y}\ \text{dx}-\text{x}\ \text{dy}}{\text{y}}=0$

$\Rightarrow \text{y}\ \text{dx}=\text{x}\ \text{dy}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\text{y}}\ \text{dy}=\frac{1}{\text{x}}\ \text{dx}$

Integrating both sides, we get,

$\int\frac{1}{\text{y}}\ \text{dy}=\int\frac{1}{\text{x}}\ \text{dx}$

$\Rightarrow \log\text{y}=\log\text{x}+\text{D}$

$\Rightarrow \log\text{y}-\log\text{x}=\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow \log\big(\frac{\text{y}}{2}\big)=\log\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\text{y}}{2}=\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow \text{y}=\text{Cx}$

Solution:

We have, $\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}+\text{y}=\frac{1+\text{y}}{\text{x}}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}=\frac{1+\text{y}}{\text{x}}-\text{y}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}=\frac{1+\text{y}-\text{xy}}{\text{x}}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}=\frac{1}{\text{x}}+\frac{\text{y}(1-\text{x})}{\text{x}}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}-\Big(\frac{1-\text{x}}{\text{x}}\Big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\frac{1}{\text{x}}$

Here, $\text{P}=\frac{-(1-\text{x})}{\text{x}},\text{Q}=\frac{1}{\text{x}}$

$\text{I.F.}=\text{e}^{\int\text{Pdx}}$

$=\text{e}^{-\int\frac{1+\text{x}}{\text{x}}\text{dx}}=\text{e}^{\frac{\text{x}-1}{\text{x}}}$

  1. $\text{x}^{2}=\text{y}$
  2. $\text{y}^{2}=\text{x}$
  3. $\text{x}^{2}=2\text{y}$
  4. $\text{y}^{2}=2\text{x}$ 
Answer
  1. $\text{x}^{2}=\text{y}$

Solution:

We have,

$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{2\text{y}}{\text{x}}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\times\frac{1}{\text{y}}\text{dy}=\frac{1}{\text{x}}\text{dx}$

Interating both sides, we get

$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\int\frac{1}{\text{y}}\text{dy}=\int\frac{1}{\text{x}}\text{dx}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\ \log{\text{y}}=\log{\text{x}}+\log\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\log{\text{y}}^{\frac{1}{2}}-\log{\text{x}}=\log\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\log\big(\frac{\sqrt{\text{y}}}{2}\big)=\log\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\sqrt{\text{y}}}{2}=\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\sqrt{\text{y}}=\text{Cx}\ ...(\text{i})$

As (i) passes through (1, 1), we get

$1=\text{C}$

Putting the value of C in (1), we get

$\Rightarrow\sqrt{\text{y}}=\text{x}$

$\Rightarrow{\text{y}}=\text{x}^{2}$

On differentiating both sides w.r.t.x, we get

$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text {ma}\text{e}^{\text{mx}}+\text{bm}\text{e}^{-\text {mx}}$

Again, differentiating both sides w.r.t.x, we get

$\frac{\text{d}^2\text{y}}{\text {d}\text{x}^2}=\text{m}^2\text{a}\text{e}^{\text{mx}}+ \text{b}\text{m}^2\text{e}^{-\text{mx}}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text {y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}=\text{m}^2(\text{a}\text{e}^{\text {mx}}+\text{b}\text{e}^{-\text{mx}})$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text {y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}=\text{m}^2\text{y}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^2\text {y}}{\text{d}\text{x}^2}-\text{m}^2\text{y}=0$

  1. y + log sin x + c = 0
  2. log y - cos x - c = 0
  3. log y + cos x - c = 0
  4. None of the above
Answer
  1. log y + cos x - c = 0

Solution:

Concept:

$\int\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{x}}=\log\text{x}+\text{c}$

$\int\sin{\text{x}}{\text{ dx}}=-\cos\text{x}+\text{c}$

  1. (4x + 6y + 5)dy - (3y + 2x + 4)dx = 0
  2. xy dx - (x3 + y3)dy = 0
  3. (x3 + 2y2)dx + 2xy dy = 0
  4. y2 dx + (x2 - xy - y2) = 0
Answer
  1. y2 dx + (x2 - xy - y2)dy

Solution:

A differential equation is said to be homogenous if all the in the terms in the equation have equal degree and it can be written in the from $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{f}(\text{x,}\text{y})}{\text{g}(\text{x,}\text{y})}.$

In (a), (b) and (c), the degree of all the terms is not equal.

  2. $\text{y}=\text{kx}$
  3. $\text{xy}=\text{k}$
  4. $\text{y}=\text{k}\log\text{x}$ 
Answer
  1. $\text{y}=\text{kx}$

Solution:

We have,

$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{1}}{\text{y}}\text{dy}=\frac{\text{1}}{\text{x}}\text{dx}$

Integrating both sides, we get

$\int\frac{\text{1}}{\text{y}}\text{dy}=\int\frac{\text{1}}{\text{x}}\text{dx}$

$\log\text{y}=\log\text{x}+\log\text{k}$

$\log\text{y}-\log\text{x}=\log\text{k}$

$\log\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}=\log\text{k}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}=\text{k}$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\text{k}{\text{x}}$

  4. $\frac{1}{2}\log(1-\text{x}^2)$
Answer
  1. $\sqrt{1-\text{x}^2}$

Solution:

Given is, $(1-\text{x}^2)\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}-\text{xy}=1$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}\text{y}}{\text{d}\text{x}}-\frac{\text{x}}{1-\text{x}^2}\text{y}=\frac{1}{1-\text{x}}^2$

Which is a linear differential equation.

$\therefore\text{I.F.}=\text{e}^{-\int\frac{\text{x}}{1-\text{x}^2}\text{dx}}$

Put $1-\text{x}^2=\text{t}$

$\Rightarrow-2\text{xdx}=\text{dt}$

Question 971 Mark
The solution of the differention equation $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{x}^{2}+\text{xy}+\text{y}^{2}}{\text{x}^{2}}$ is:
  1. $\tan^{-1}\big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\big)-\log\text{y}+\text{C}$ 
  2. $\tan^{-1}\big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\big)-\log\text{x}+\text{C}$
  3. $\tan^{-1}\big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\big)=\log\text{x}+\text{C}$
  4. $\tan^{-1}\big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\big)=\log\text{y}+\text{C}$
Answer
  1. $\tan^{-1}\big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\big)=\log\text{y}+\text{C}$

Solution:

We have,

$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{x}^{2}+\text{xy}+\text{y}^{2}}{\text{x}^{2}}\ ...(\text{i})$

This is homogenous differential equation.

Let $\text{y}=\text{ux}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{u}+\text{x}\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}$

Now, putting equation (i),

$\text{u}+\text{x}\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{\text{x}^{2}+\text{x}^{2}\text{u}+\text{x}^{2}\text{u}^{2}}{\text{x}^{2}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{u}+\text{x}\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}=1+\text{u}+\text{u}^{2}$

$\Rightarrow \text{x}\frac{\text{du}}{\text{dx}}=1+\text{u}^{2}$

$\Rightarrow \big(\frac{1}{1+\text{u}^{2}}\big)\text{du}=\frac{1}{\text{x}}\text{dx}$

Intergreting both sides, we get

$\int\big(\frac{1}{1+\text{u}^{2}}\big)\text{du}=\int\frac{1}{\text{x}}\text{dx}$

$\Rightarrow \tan^{-1}\text{u}=\log\text{x}+\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow \tan^{-1}\big(\frac{\text{y}}{2}\big)=\log\text{x}+\text{C}$
