The solution of the differential equation y' = (x+y)/x is-
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The given differential equation is y' = (x+y)/x
which can be written as dy/dx = (x+ y)/ x.....................(i)
This is an homogeneous differential equation.
Let y = vx
⇒dv/dx = v + x (dv/dx)
substituting the values of v and dv/dx in equation (i) we get:
v+ x (dv/dx) = {x +(vx)}/x
⇒ v + x(dv/dx) = (1+v)
⇒dv = dx/x
on integrating both sides, we get:
v = xlogx + C
since v= y/x
⇒ y/x = xlogx +c
⇒ y = x log x + Cx
