For the differential equation $(x + y)dy + (x − y)dx = 0$, which of the following is/are correct? (A) Differential equation is homogeneous Choose the correct answer from the options given below: |
(A) only (B), (C) and (D) only (A), (B) and (D) only (A) and (B) only |
(A) and (B) only |
The correct answer is Option (4) → (A) and (B) only Given: $(x+y)\,dy + (x-y)\,dx = 0$ (A) Differential equation is homogeneous: Both $x-y$ and $x+y$ are of degree $1$. (A) true (B) Order of differential equation is $1$: Only $\frac{dy}{dx}$ occurs after rearranging. (B) true (C) Integrating factor is $e^{x}$: The equation is homogeneous and solved by substitution $y=vx$. Integrating factor does not appear. (C) false (D) Degree of the equation: Highest power of $\frac{dy}{dx}$ is $1$, so degree is defined. (D) false Correct statements: A and B |
