Find the general solution of the given differential equation. x2y' + xy = 9
Solution:
Given, the differential equation is x2y' + xy = 9
We have to find the general solution of the given differential equation.
The equation can be written as x2(dy/dx) + xy = 9
Dividing by x² on both sides,
dy/dx + y/x = 9/x2
This represents the form dy/dx + P(x)y = Q(x), which is a linear differential equation
Here, P(x) = 1/x and Q(x) = 9/x2.
Integrating factor (I. F.) = e ∫P(x). dx
I.F. = e ∫1/x. dx
= elogex
= x
The solution of Linear differential equation is given by
(I.F.) × y = ∫ (I.F.) Q(x) dx
xy = ∫ x. (9/x2) dx
xy = 9∫(x/x2) dx
xy = 9 ∫ (1/x) . dx
xy = 9 logex + C
Therefore, the required solution is xy = 9 logex + C
Find the general solution of the given differential equation. x2y' + xy = 9
Summary:
The general solution of the differential equation. x2y' + xy = 9 is xy = 9 logex + C.
