Question 23:

State whether the following statements are True or False.

(i) Order of the differential equation representing the family of ellipses having centre at origin and foci on x-axis is two.

True, since the equation representing the given family is has two arbitrary constants.

(ii) Degree of the differential equation is not defined.

True, because it is not a polynomial equation in its derivatives.

(iii) is a differential equation of the type but it can be solved using variable separable method also.

(iv) is not a homogeneous function.

True, because .

(v) is a homogeneous function of degree .

True, because .

(vi) Integrating factor of the differential equation is

(vii) The general solution of the differential equation is .

True, because given equation can be written as

(viii) The general solution of the differential equation is

(ix) is a solution of the differential equation
