  1. The solution of the differential equation (dy / dx) + 2xy = e-x² with y(0) = 1 is
    1. (1 + x) e+x²
    2. (1 + x) e-x²
    3. (1 - x) e+x²
    4. (1 - x) e-x²
Correct Option: B

First order equation,
dy
+ Py = Q, where P = 2x and Q = e
dx

Since P and Q are functions of x, then
∴ Integrating factor,
I.F. = e+∫pdx = e+x²
e
dy
+
(2xe)y = e-x² . e+x²
dx

d
(ye) = 1
dx

ye = x + c
Since, y(0) = 1, ⇒ C = 1
∴ y = (1 + x) e -x²
