Options
- A3
- B5
- C4
- DNot defined
Correct answer
A. 3
Step-by-step solution
General solution of differential equation is, (y= (C₁+C₂ ) (x+C₃ )+C₄ e^ x+C₅ ) Here solution is of form; ( aligned & y=A (x+C₃ )+B e^x & [ C₁+C₂=A, C₄ e^c=B ] aligned ) So, there are 3-arbitrary constants, (A₁ C₃ ) and (B ) Now, order of differential equation (= ) number of arbitrary constants in general solution. So, order of differential equation is 3.
