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