Q268 / 270 · NDA 2021 (Phase 2) · Mathematics

What is the differential equation of $y=A-\frac{B}{x}$ ?

  • A
    $x y_2+y_1=0$
  • Correct answer
    B
    $x y_2+2 y_1=0$
  • C
    $x y_2-2 y_1=0$
  • D
    $2 x y_2+y_1=0$

Solution

General solution, $y=A-\frac{B}{x}$ $\begin{aligned} & y_1=-B\left(-\frac{1}{x^2}\right)=\frac{B}{x^2} \\ & x^2 y_1=B \\ & x^2 y_2+y_1 \times 2 x=0 \\ & \therefore \quad x\left(x y_2+2 y_1\right)=0 \end{aligned}$ Differential Equation : $x y_2+2 y_1=0$

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