Q95 / 180 · COMEDK 2014 · Mathematics

The solution of $(x+y)^{2}\left(x \frac{d y}{d x}+y\right)=x y\left(1+\frac{d y}{d x}\right)$ is

  • Correct answer
    A
    $\log (x y)=-\frac{1}{x+y}+C$
  • B
    $\log \left(\frac{x}{y}\right)=-\frac{1}{x+y}+C$
  • C
    $\log (x y)=\frac{1}{x-y}+C$
  • D
    None of the above

Solution

Given, differential equation is $$ \begin{aligned} &\Rightarrow \quad(x y)^{-1}\left(x \frac{d y}{d x}+y\right)=(x+y)^{-2}\left(1+\frac{d y}{d x}\right) \\ &\Rightarrow \int(x y)^{-1}\left(x \frac{d y}{d x}+y\right) d x=\int(x+y)^{-2}\left(1+\frac{d y}{d x}\right) d x \ldots(\mathrm{i}) \end{aligned} $$ Using integral, $$ \int(f(x))^{n} f^{\prime}(x) d x=\frac{\left.(f(x))^{n+1}\right)}{n+1} $$ and $$ \begin{array}{ll} \text { From Eq. (i) } & \log (x y)=\frac{(x+y)^{-1}}{-1}+C \\ \Rightarrow \quad & \log (x y)=\frac{-1}{x+y}+C \end{array} $$

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