Ex 9.4, 2 In each of the Exercise 1 to 10 , show that the given differential equation is homogeneous and solve each of them. ๐ฆ^โฒ=(๐ฅ+๐ฆ)/๐ฅ Step 1: Find ๐๐ฆ/๐๐ฅ ๐๐ฆ/๐๐ฅ = (๐ฅ + ๐ฆ)/๐ฅ Step 2: Putting F(x, y) = ๐๐ฆ/๐๐ฅ and find F(๐x, ๐y) So, F(x, y) = (๐ + ๐)/๐ F(๐x, ๐y) = (๐๐ฅ +๐๐ฆ)/๐๐ฅ = (๐(๐ฅ +๐ฆ))/๐๐ฅ = (๐ฅ + ๐ฆ)/๐ฅ = F(x, y) = ๐ยฐF(x, y) Therefore F(x, y) is a homogenous function of degree zero. Hence ๐๐ฆ/๐๐ฅ is a homogenous differential equation Step 3: Solving ๐๐ฆ/๐๐ฅ by putting y = vx Put y = vx. differentiating w.r.t.x ๐๐ฆ/๐๐ฅ = x ๐๐ฃ/๐๐ฅ+๐ฃ๐๐ฅ/๐๐ฅ ๐ ๐/๐ ๐ = ๐ ๐ ๐/๐ ๐ + v Putting value of ๐๐ฆ/๐๐ฅ and y = vx in (1) ๐๐ฆ/๐๐ฅ = (๐ฅ + ๐ฆ)/๐ฅ ๐ ( ๐ ๐)/๐ ๐ + v = (๐ + ๐๐)/๐ ๐ฅ ( ๐๐ฃ)/๐๐ฅ + v = 1+๐ฃ ๐ฅ (๐ฅ ๐๐ฃ)/๐๐ฅ = 1+๐ฃโ๐ฃ ๐ฅ ( ๐๐ฃ)/๐๐ฅ = 1 ( ๐ ๐)/๐ ๐ = ๐/๐ Integrating both sides โซ1โใ๐๐ฃ=โซ1โใ๐๐ฅ/๐ฅ ใ ใ v = log|๐|+๐ Putting v = ๐ฆ/๐ฅ ๐ฆ/๐ฅ = log|๐ฅ| + c y = x log|๐| + cx
