Differential Equations Question 85

Question: The solution of $ (x-y^{3})dx+3xy^{2}dy=0 $ is

Options:

A) $ \log x+\frac{x}{y} $

B) $ \log x+\frac{y^{3}}{x}=k $

C) $ \log x-\frac{x}{y^{3}}=k $

D) $ \log xy-y^{3}=k $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

$ xdx-y^{3}dx+3xy^{2}dy=0 $

Put $ y^{3}=t $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ dt=3y^{2}dy $

$ xdx-tdx+xdt=0 $

Therefore $ xdx+xdt-tdx=0 $

Therefore $ \frac{dx}{x}+d( \frac{t}{x} )=0 $

On integration, we get $ \log x+\frac{t}{x}=k $

Therefore $ \log x+\frac{y^{3}}{x}=k $ .
