Q94 / 180 · KCET 2016 · Mathematics

The solution for the differential equation \( \frac{d y}{y}+\frac{d x}{x}=0 \)

  • A
    \( \frac{1}{y}+\frac{1}{x}=C \)
  • B
    \( \log x \cdot \log y=c \)
  • Correct answer
    C
    \( x y=c \)
  • D
    \( x+y=c \)

Solution

Given differential equation is,
\( \frac{d y}{y}+\frac{d x}{x}=0 \)
Integrating both the sides
\[ \begin{array}{l} \int \frac{d y}{y}+\int \frac{d x}{x}=\int \operatorname{Od} x \\ \Rightarrow \log y+\log x=\log c \\ \Rightarrow \log (x y)=\log c \\ \Rightarrow x y=c \end{array} \]

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
