Question 1.
Show that each of the following expressions is a solution of the corresponding given differential equation.

(i) y = 2x2 ; xy’ = 2y
Solution:
v = 2x2 …(1)
Differential equation: xy’ = 2y
Differentiate with respect to ‘x’

On simplifying, 2y = xy’
∴ (1) is solution of the given differential equation.

(ii) y = aex + be-x ; y” – y = 0

Differentiate with respect to ‘x’
y’ = aex – be-x
Again differentiate with respect to ‘x’
y” = aex + be-x
y” = y ⇒ y” – y = 0
∴ (1) is the solution of the given differential equation.

Question 1.
Verify that the function y = a cos x + b sin x is a solution of the differential equation cos $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ + y sin x = b. dx
Solution:
The given function is y = a cos x + b sin x
Differentiating both sides with respect to x, we have

Putting values of $$\frac{d y}{d x}$$ and y in the given differential equation, we have
L.H.S. = cos x (- a sin x + b cos x) + {a cos x + b sin x) sin x
