The differential equation whose solution is A x²+B y²=1 where A and B are arbitrary constants is of
Options
- Asecond order and second degree
- Bfirst order and second degree
- Cfirst order and first degree
- Dsecond order and first degree
Correct answer
D. second order and first degree
Step-by-step solution
A x²+B y²=1 ...(1) A x+B y d y d x =0 ...(2) A+B y d² y d x² +B ( d y d x )²=0 ...(3) x -B y d² y d x² -B ( d y d x )² +B y d y d x =0 Dividing both sides by - B , we get x y d² y d x² +x ( d y d x )²-y d y d x =0 Which is a DE of order 2 and degree 1
