Question

The differential equation (y'')2 + (y')3 - 3xy' = 2y is of order
Options
A 1
B 2
Correct Answer
C 3
D 4
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

The order of a differential equation is defined as the order of the highest derivative present in the equation.In the given equation (y'')2 + (y')3 - 3xy' = 2y:- y'' represents the second derivative.- y' represents the first derivative.The highest order derivative present is y'' (the second derivative). Therefore, the order of the differential equation is 2.

Hint

The order of a differential equation is determined by the highest derivative present in the equation.
