We have , `(dy)/(dx) = y (xy -1)`
` rArr dy = xy^(2)dx - y dx`
` rArr y dx + dy = xy^(2) dx rArr (y" "dx+dy)/(y^(2)) = xdx`
` rArr (ye^(-x) dx + e^(-x) dy)/(y^(2)) = xe^(-x) dx`
` :. -d ((e^(-x))/y) = xe^(-x) dx`
On integrating , we get
` - (e^(-x)/y ) = - xe^(-x) - e^(-x)-C`
` rArr 1/y = x+1 + Ce^(x) " " ` ...(i)
Since , it passes through (0,1)

We have, `(dy)/(dx) = 1 - 1/(x^(2))`
On integrating both sides , we get
` y = x + 1/x +C`
This passes through `(2,7/2)`
` :. 7/2 = 2+ 1/2 + C rArr C = 1`
Thus, the equation of the curve is

Answer» Correct Answer - a
Since , ` cos x dy = y sinx dx - y^(2)dx`
` rArr 1/(y^(2))(dy)/(dx) -1/y = (dz)/(dx)`
` rArr (dz)/(dx) +(tanx) z = - sec x`
This is a linear differential equuation . Therefore
`IF = e^(int tanx dx) = e^(log(secx)) = sec x`
Hence, the solution is
` z* (sec x) = int - sec x * sec x dx +C_(1)`
` rArr-1/y secx = - tan x + C_(1)`
` rArr sec x = y(tan x +C) " " [ C = -C_(1)]`
