The differential equation of the family of ellipses having centres along the line y = 4 and major and minor axes parallel to the coordinate axes is of the order
Options
- A4
- B3
- C2
- D1
Correct answer
B. 3
Step-by-step solution
The general equation of the family is x - α 2 a 2 + y - 4 2 b 2 = 1 which has three arbitrary constants. Hence, the order of its differential equation will be ‘ 3 ’
