Differential Equations Question 144

Question: The solution of the differential equation $ (x^{2}+y^{2})dx=2xydy $ is

[MP PET 2003; Orissa JEE 2005]

Options:

A) $ x=c(x^{2}+y^{2}) $

B) $ x=c(x^{2}-y^{2}) $

C) $ x+c(x^{2}-y^{2})=0 $

D) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

It can be written in the form of homogeneous equation $ \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x^{2}+y^{2}}{2xy} $

Now solve it by putting $ y=vx $ and $ \frac{dy}{dx}=v+x\frac{dv}{dx} $ .
