A solution of the differential equation $\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2-x \frac{d y}{d x}+y=0$ is : |
y = 2 y = 2x y = 2x – 4 y = 2x2 – 4 |
y = 2x – 4 |
Let dy/dx = p $\Rightarrow p^2 -xp+ y = 0$ $y = xp - x^2$ $\frac{dy}{dx}=(x-2p)\frac{dp}{dx}+p$ $\Rightarrow p = (x-2p)\frac{dp}{dx}+p$ $\frac{dp}{dx} = 0$ $\Rightarrow p = \text{ constant}$ $\Rightarrow y = xc - c^2$ From options , c = 2 , y = 2x-4 |
