JEE Main 2020Differential Equations Question with Solution

From: JEE Main 2020 (Online) 7th January Morning Slot

Question

If y = y(x) is the solution of the differential equation, such that y(0) = 0, then y(1) is equal to:

Choose an option

Show full solutionCorrect option: C
Correct answer
C1 + loge2

Step-by-step explanation

Given,

....(1)

Let



So here p = -1 and q = ex

We know, IF =

= =

t. =

t. = x + c

Putting value of t, we get

= x + c

.....(2)

Given y(0) = 0 means y = 0 when x = 0.

Putting in equation (2), we get

e0 = 0 + c

c = 1

....(3)

Now we have to find y(1), which means when x = 1 find the value of y in the above equation.

Putting x = 1 in equation (3)



y - 1 = loge2

y = 1 + loge2
