  • D 16

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

(x−x3)dy=(y+yx2−3x4)dx(x - {x^3})dy = (y + y{x^2} - 3{x^4})dx

⇒xdy−ydx=(yx2−3x4)dx+x3dy\Rightarrow xdy - ydx = (y{x^2} - 3{x^4})dx + {x^3}dy

⇒xdy−ydxx2=(ydx+xdy)−3x2dx\Rightarrow {{xdy - ydx} \over {{x^2}}} = (ydx + xdy) - 3{x^2}dx

⇒d(yx)=d(xy)−d(x3)\Rightarrow d\left( {{y \over x}} \right) = d(xy) - d({x^3})

Integrate

⇒yx=xy−x3+c\Rightarrow {y \over x} = xy - {x^3} + c

given f(3) = 3

⇒33=3×3−33+c\Rightarrow {3 \over 3} = 3 \times 3 - {3^3} + c

⇒c=19\Rightarrow c = 19

∴\therefore yx=xy−x3+19{y \over x} = xy - {x^3} + 19

at x=4,y4=4y−64+19x = 4,{y \over 4} = 4y - 64 + 19

15y=4×4515y = 4 \times 45

⇒y=12\Rightarrow y = 12
