Find the particular solution for the differential equation \(\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{3x^2}{7y}\) given that, y=1 when x=1.(a) 7x^2=2y^3+5(b) 7x^3=2y^2+5(c) 7y^2=2x^3+5(d) 2y^2=5x^3+6I got this question during an online interview.This interesting question is from Methods of Solving First Order & First Degree Differential Equations topic in portion Differential Equations of Mathematics – Class 12

Answer»

The correct answer is (c) 7y^2=2x^3+5

To EXPLAIN I would say: Given that, \(\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{3x^2}{7y}\)

Separating the variables, we get

7y dy=3x^2 dx

Integrating both sides, we get

\(7\int y \,dy=3\int x^2 \,dx\)

\(\frac{7y^2}{2}=3(\frac{x^3}{3})+C\)

\(\frac{7y^2}{2}=x^3\)+C –(1)

Given that y=1, when x=1

Substituting the VALUES in equation (1), we get

\(\frac{7(1)^2}{2}=(1)^3+C\)

\(C=\frac{7}{2}-1=\frac{5}{2}\)

Hence, the particular solution of the given differential equation is:

\(\frac{7y^2}{2}=x^3+\frac{5}{2}\)

⇒7y^2=2x^3+5
