JEE Main 2020Differential Equations Question with Solution

From: JEE Main 2020 (Online) 8th January Evening Slot

Question

The differential equation of the family of curves, x2 = 4b(y + b), b R, is :

Choose an option

Show full solutionCorrect option: D
Correct answer
Dx(y')2 = x + 2yy'

Step-by-step explanation

x2 = 4b(y + b)

2x = 4by'

b =

differential equation is

x2 = 4.y. + 4

x2 = +

x = +

x(y')2 = x + 2yy'
