Introduction Differential equations are a fundamental concept in mathematics, and they play a crucial role in various fields such as physics, engineering, and economics. In this article, we will focus on solving a specific differential equation, which is given by:
d y d x − 4 d y d x − 7 x = 0 \sqrt{\frac{d y}{d x}} - 4 \frac{d y}{d x} - 7 x = 0
d x d y − 4 d x d y − 7 x = 0
Our goal is to find the correct pair of coefficients (m, n) for which the equation is true.
Understanding the Equation Before we dive into solving the equation, let's break it down and understand its components. The equation involves a square root term, which can be challenging to handle. We can start by isolating the square root term:
d y d x = 4 d y d x + 7 x \sqrt{\frac{d y}{d x}} = 4 \frac{d y}{d x} + 7 x
d x d y = 4 d x d y + 7 x
Squaring Both Sides To eliminate the square root term, we can square both sides of the equation:
( d y d x ) 2 = ( 4 d y d x + 7 x ) 2 \left(\sqrt{\frac{d y}{d x}}\right)^2 = \left(4 \frac{d y}{d x} + 7 x\right)^2
( d x d y ) 2 = ( 4 d x d y + 7 x ) 2
Expanding the right-hand side, we get:
d y d x = 16 ( d y d x ) 2 + 56 x d y d x + 49 x 2 \frac{d y}{d x} = 16 \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2 + 56 x \frac{d y}{d x} + 49 x^2
d x d y = 16 ( d x d y ) 2 + 56 x d x d y + 49 x 2
Rearranging the Terms To simplify the equation, we can rearrange the terms:
16 ( d y d x ) 2 + 56 x d y d x + 49 x 2 − d y d x = 0 16 \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2 + 56 x \frac{d y}{d x} + 49 x^2 - \frac{d y}{d x} = 0
16 ( d x d y ) 2 + 56 x d x d y + 49 x 2 − d x d y = 0
Factoring the Equation We can factor the equation by grouping the terms:
( 16 ( d y d x ) 2 + 55 x d y d x + 49 x 2 ) − d y d x = 0 \left(16 \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2 + 55 x \frac{d y}{d x} + 49 x^2\right) - \frac{d y}{d x} = 0
( 16 ( d x d y ) 2 + 55 x d x d y + 49 x 2 ) − d x d y = 0
( 16 ( d y d x ) 2 + 55 x d y d x + 49 x 2 ) − ( d y d x ) = 0 \left(16 \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2 + 55 x \frac{d y}{d x} + 49 x^2\right) - \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right) = 0
( 16 ( d x d y ) 2 + 55 x d x d y + 49 x 2 ) − ( d x d y ) = 0
Simplifying the Equation We can simplify the equation by combining like terms:
( 16 ( d y d x ) 2 + 55 x d y d x + 49 x 2 ) − ( d y d x ) = 0 \left(16 \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2 + 55 x \frac{d y}{d x} + 49 x^2\right) - \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right) = 0
( 16 ( d x d y ) 2 + 55 x d x d y + 49 x 2 ) − ( d x d y ) = 0
16 ( d y d x ) 2 + 55 x d y d x + 49 x 2 − d y d x = 0 16 \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2 + 55 x \frac{d y}{d x} + 49 x^2 - \frac{d y}{d x} = 0
16 ( d x d y ) 2 + 55 x d x d y + 49 x 2 − d x d y = 0
Solving for (m, n) To find the correct pair of coefficients (m, n), we need to compare the simplified equation with the original equation:
16 ( d y d x ) 2 + 55 x d y d x + 49 x 2 − d y d x = 0 16 \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)^2 + 55 x \frac{d y}{d x} + 49 x^2 - \frac{d y}{d x} = 0
16 ( d x d y ) 2 + 55 x d x d y + 49 x 2 − d x d y = 0
d y d x − 4 d y d x − 7 x = 0 \sqrt{\frac{d y}{d x}} - 4 \frac{d y}{d x} - 7 x = 0
d x d y − 4 d x d y − 7 x = 0
By comparing the coefficients, we can see that:
m = 16 m = 16
m = 16
n = 55 n = 55
n = 55

<h2><strong>Q: What is the significance of solving differential equations?</strong></h2>
<p>A: Solving differential equations is significant because it helps us understand and model various phenomena in physics, engineering, and economics. It also helps us make predictions and decisions based on the behavior of complex systems.</p>
<h2><strong>Q: What are some common applications of differential equations?</strong></h2>
<p>A: Some common applications of differential equations include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Modeling population growth and decay</li>
<li>Describing the motion of objects under the influence of forces</li>
<li>Analyzing the behavior of electrical circuits</li>
<li>Studying the spread of diseases</li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>Q: How do we use differential equations in real-world problems?</strong></h2>
<p>A: We use differential equations to model and analyze real-world problems by:</p>
<ul>
<li>Identifying the variables and parameters involved</li>
<li>Formulating the differential equation that describes the problem</li>
<li>Solving the differential equation to obtain the solution</li>
