Mathematics Question on Differential equations
Verify that the given functions (explicit or implicit) is a solution of the corresponding differential equation: y=x2+2x+C:y′−2x−2=0
Answer
y=x2+2x+C
Differentiating both sides of this equation with respect to x, we get:
y′=dxd(x2+2x+C)
⇒y′=2x+2
Substituting the value of y' in the given differential equation, we get:
L.H.S = y′−2x−2=2x+2−2x−2=0= R.H.S.
Hence, the given function is the solution of the corresponding differential equation
