Question

The family $Y = Ax + {A^3}$ of curves will correspond to a differential equation of order

  • (a) 3
  • (b) 2
  • (c) 1 ✓ Correct
  • (d) not defined
Step-by-step Solution
Correct answer: option (c)

Given family of curves is $y = Ax + {A^3}$

….(i)
$\Rightarrow$ $\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = A$

Replacing $A$ by $\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}$ in Eq. (i),

we get
$y = x\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} + {\left( {\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}} \right)^3}$

$\therefore$ Order $= 1$
