Hint:

For a linear differential equation \(\frac{dy}{dx} + P(x)y = Q(x)\), the integrating factor is always \( I.F. = e^{\int P(x)dx} \). Always rearrange the equation into this standard form first.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The standard form of a linear differential equation is \(\frac{dy}{dx} + P(x)y = Q(x)\), and its integrating factor (I.F.) is \(e^{\int P(x)dx}\).

Step 1: Analyze equation (A) 
\( \frac{dy}{dx} = 2x(y-x^2+1) $\Rightarrow$ \frac{dy}{dx} - 2xy = -2x(x^2-1) \). Here, \(P(x) = -2x\). I.F. = \( e^{\int -2x dx} = e^{-x^2} \). So, A matches with (II).

Step 2: Analyze equation (B) 
The equation is \( x\frac{dy}{dx} + 2y = f(x) \). Let's assume there's a typo and the equation is \( \frac{dy}{dx} + \frac{2}{x}y = Q(x) \). Here, \( P(x) = \frac{2}{x} \). I.F. = \( e^{\int \frac{2}{x} dx} = e^{2\ln x} = e^{\ln x^2} = x^2 \). This matches the I.F. in (I). So, we assume the intended equation for (B) leads to this I.F. Thus, B matches with (I).

Step 3: Analyze equation (C) 
\( (x^2+1)\frac{dy}{dx} + 2xy = x \sin x \Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx} + \frac{2x}{x^2+1}y = \frac{x \sin x}{x^2+1} \). Here, \( P(x) = \frac{2x}{x^2+1} \). I.F. = \( e^{\int \frac{2x}{x^2+1} dx} = e^{\ln(x^2+1)} = x^2+1 \). So, C matches with (IV).

Step 4: Analyze equation (D) 
Given the confirmed matches A-II, B-I, and C-IV, the only remaining possibility from the options is that D matches with (III). Let's check what DE would give I.F. \(x^2e^x\). I.F. \(x^2e^x = e^{\ln(x^2) + x} = e^{\int (\frac{2}{x}+1) dx}\). This means \(P(x) = \frac{2}{x}+1\). The DE would be \( \frac{dy}{dx} + (\frac{2}{x}+1)y = Q(x) \). The provided equation for (D) likely contains typos. Based on elimination, D matches with (III). Conclusion: The matching is A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III.
