Let y = y(x) be the solution curve of the differential equation,

(y2−x)dydx=1\left( {{y^2} - x} \right){{dy} \over {dx}} = 1 , satisfying y(0) = 1. This curve intersects the x-axis at a point whose abscissa is :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 2 + e
  • B #NAME?
  • C 2
  • D 2 - e

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

(y2−x)dydx=1\left( {{y^2} - x} \right){{dy} \over {dx}} = 1

⇒\Rightarrow dxdy{{dx} \over {dy}} + x = y2

I.F = e∫dy{e^{\int {dy} }} = ey

Solution is given by

xey = ∫y2eydy{\int {{y^2}{e^y}dy} }

⇒\Rightarrow xey = (y2 – 2y + 2)ey + C

y(0) = 1 means x = 0, y = 1

∴\therefore C = -e

∴\therefore xey = (y2 – 2y + 2)ey - e

put y = 0

∴\therefore x = 0 – 0 + 2 – e

⇒\Rightarrow x = 2 - e
