JEE Main 2020Differential Equations Question with Solution

From: JEE Main 2020 (Online) 9th January Morning Slot

Question

If for x 0, y = y(x) is the solution of the differential equation
(x + 1)dy = ((x + 1)2 + y – 3)dx, y(2) = 0, then y(3) is equal to _______.

Correct answer
3

Step-by-step explanation

(x + 1)dy = ((x + 1)2 + y – 3)dx

(1 + x) - y = (1 + x)2 - 3



I.F = =

Solution of the differential equation,

=

=

= x + + C

As y(2) = 0 x = 2, y = 0

0 = 2 + + C

C = -3

So solution is = x + - 3

y(3) means x = 3 and find value of y.



y = 3
