The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

We begin by determining the integrating factor (IF):

ex: IF=e−∫t1+tdt=e−∫t+11+tdt=et+log(1+t)=1+tet​.

The sought-after solution can be expressed as y(IF)=∫QIFdt+C, where Q=11+t​ is derived from the given equation.

Thus, y(IF)=∫11+t​⋅1+tetdt+C,

=∫etdt+C,

=−et+C.

Given the initial condition y(0)=−1, we find:

−1⋅(1+0)=−e0+C,

−1=−1+C,

C=0.

Plugging the value of C back in, we have:

y(IF)=−et+0,

=−et.

Evaluating at t=1:

y(IF)=−e−1,

\(=-\frac {1}{e}\)

above is example. but here proves that : \(-\frac {1}{2}\)

Concepts Used:

Differential Equations

A differential equation is an equation that contains one or more functions with its derivatives. The derivatives of the function define the rate of change of a function at a point. It is mainly used in fields such as physics, engineering, biology and so on.

Orders of a Differential Equation

First Order Differential Equation

The first-order differential equation has a degree equal to 1. All the linear equations in the form of derivatives are in the first order. It has only the first derivative such as dy/dx, where x and y are the two variables and is represented as: dy/dx = f(x, y) = y’

Second-Order Differential Equation

The equation which includes second-order derivative is the second-order differential equation. It is represented as; d/dx(dy/dx) = d2y/dx2 = f”(x) = y”.

Types of Differential Equations

Differential equations can be divided into several types namely

  • Ordinary Differential Equations
  • Partial Differential Equations
  • Linear Differential Equations
  • Nonlinear differential equations
  • Homogeneous Differential Equations
  • Nonhomogeneous Differential Equations
