Show that each of the following expressions is a solution of the corresponding given differential equation.(i) y = 2x2; xy’ = 2y(ii) y = aex + be-x; y” – y = 0

Answer»

(i) v = 2x2 … (1) 

Differential equation: xy’ = 2y 

Differentiate with respect to ‘x’

y' = 4x 

x = y'/4 

Substitute in (1) 

y = 2x(x)

y = 2x(y'/4)

= xy'/2

On simplifying, 2y = xy’ 

∴ (1) is solution of the given differential equation.

(ii) y = aex + be-x …(1) 

Differential equation: y” – y = 0 

Differentiate with respect to ‘x’ 

y’ = aex – be-x 

Again differentiate with respect to ‘x’ 

y” = aex + be-x 

y” = y ⇒ y” – y = 0 

∴ (1) is the solution of the given differential equation.
