Maths · Ordinary differential equations, their order and degree

Order and degree of y_{2}^{2}+\left(x^{2}-2\right) y_{1}^{3}-2(x+ \) \boldsymbol

Order and degree of \( \left(x^{2}+2 x\right) y_{2}^{2}+\left(x^{2}-2\right) y_{1}^{3}-2(x+ \) \( \mathbf{3}) \boldsymbol{y}=\mathbf{0} \) are:

  • A. 2,3
  • B. 2,
  • C. 3,1
  • D. 3,

Step-by-step solution

The highest order derivative is the second derivative (y2), so order = 2. The power of the highest order derivative in the polynomial equation is 2, so degree = 2. Option B is the only one with order 2, matching the correct order.
