Basic concept of Differential Equation
Differential Equation
An equation involving derivatives or differentials of one or more dependent
variables with respect to one or more independent variables is called a Differential
Equation.

Linear Differential Equation
A differential equation is called linear if
❖ Every dependent variable and every derivative involved occurs in the first degree
only.
❖ No products of dependent variables or derivatives occur.

Now, differentiating equation (𝑖) successively two times with respect to 𝑥, we get
𝑑𝑦
= 𝑒 𝑥 −𝐴 sin 𝑥 + 𝐵 cos 𝑥 + 𝑒 𝑥 𝐴 cos 𝑥 + 𝐵 sin 𝑥
𝑑𝑥
= 𝑒 𝑥 −𝐴 sin 𝑥 + 𝐵 cos 𝑥 + 𝑦 … … … 𝑖𝑖 [From (𝑖)]
Again,
𝑑2𝑦 𝑥 𝐴 cos 𝑥 + 𝐵 sin 𝑥 + 𝑒 𝑥 −𝐴 sin 𝑥 + 𝐵 cos 𝑥 +
𝑑𝑦
= −𝑒

Question 3: Find the differential equation whose solution is 𝑦 = 𝑎 + 𝑏 ln 𝑥 + 𝑐 ln 𝑥 2 + 3𝑥 2 .

Solution: Given that, 𝑦 = 𝑎 + 𝑏 ln 𝑥 + 𝑐 ln 𝑥 + 3𝑥 2 … … … (𝑖)
Differentiating (𝑖) w.r.t 𝑥, we get
𝑑𝑦 𝑏 ln 𝑥
= + 2𝑐 + 6𝑥
𝑑𝑥 𝑥 𝑥

Differentiating (𝑖𝑖) again w.r.t 𝑥, we get

𝑑2𝑦 𝑑𝑦 2 … … … (𝑖𝑖𝑖)
⇒ 𝑥 + 𝑥 = 2𝑐 + 12𝑥

Differentiating (𝑖𝑖𝑖) again w.r.t 𝑥, we get
