    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

  1. If x²
    dy
    + 2xy =
    2ln(x)
    , and y(1) = 0, then what is y(e)?

    x² y' + 2xy =
    2 ln x
    x

    ⇒ y' +
    2
    y =
    2 ln x
    xx3

    Comparing, we get P =
    2
    Q =
    2 ln x
    x'x3


    y(I.F.) = ∫ Q I.F. dx + c
    x² y = ∫
    2 ln x
    . x²dx + C
    x3

    Solving above, find the value of C.
    Putting x = 1, then find the value of y at x = e.
    Which is y =
    1
    e2

    Correct Option: D

    x² y' + 2xy =
    2 ln x
    x

    ⇒ y' +
    2
    y =
    2 ln x
    xx3

    Comparing, we get P =
    2
    Q =
    2 ln x
    x'x3


    y(I.F.) = ∫ Q I.F. dx + c
    x² y = ∫
    2 ln x
    . x²dx + C
    x3

    Solving above, find the value of C.
    Putting x = 1, then find the value of y at x = e.
    Which is y =
    1

    Given differential equation is

    dy
    + y2 = 0
    dx2

    dy
    -dx
    y2

    On integration, we get
    dy
    -∫ dx
    y2

    -
    1
    = x - c
    y

    where c is a constant
    ⇒ -
    1
    = -(x + c)
    y

    ∴ y =
    1
    x + c

    Correct Option: A
