The differential equation which represents the family of curves \(\mathrm{y}=\mathrm{c}_{1} \mathrm{e}^{(\mathrm{c}) 2 \mathrm{x}}\), where \(\mathrm{c}_{1}\) and \(\mathrm{c}_{2}\) are arbitarary constants, is: (A) \(y^{\prime}=y^{2}\) (B) \(\mathrm{y}^{\prime \prime}=\mathrm{y}^{\prime} \mathrm{y}\) (C) \(\mathrm{yy}^{\prime \prime}=\left(\mathrm{y}^{1}\right)^{2}\) (D) \(\mathrm{yy}^{\prime \prime}=\mathrm{y}^{\prime}\)

Short Answer

Expert verified
The short answer is: (C) \(yy''= (y^1)^2\).

Step by step solution

01

Differentiate with respect to x.

Differentiate the given equation y = c_1 e^{c_2 2x} with respect to x to find the first derivative: \(y' = \frac{dy}{dx} = c_1 (2c_2) e^{c_2 2x}\)
02

Differentiate again with respect to x.

Differentiate \(y'\) with respect to x to find the second derivative: \(y'' = \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = c_1 (2c_2)^2 e^{c_2 2x}\)
03

Eliminate arbitrary constants c_1 and c_2.

We have: \(y = c_1 e^{c_2 2x}\) \(y' = c_1 (2c_2) e^{c_2 2x}\) \(y'' = c_1 (2c_2)^2 e^{c_2 2x}\) To eliminate c_1 and c_2, we can use the second equation and divide it by the first equation and then divide the third equation by the second equation. \(\frac{y'}{y} = 2c_2\) \(\frac{y''}{y'} = 2c_2\) Since \(\frac{y'}{y} = \frac{y''}{y'}\), we can rewrite the equation as: \(y' y = y''y\) Now, we check our options: (A) \(y' = y^2\) This is not a match because there is no \(y^2\) term in our transformed equation. (B) \(y''= y' y\) This is not a match because there is a product term missing from our transformed equation. (C) \(y y''= (y^1)^2\) This is a match with our transformed equation \(y' y = y''y\)! (D) \(yy''= y'\) This is not a match because our transformed equation has equal signs on both sides.
04

Conclusion

Based on our transformed differential equation and the given options, we can conclude that the differential equation which represents the family of curves \(y = c_1 e^{c_2 2x}\) is: (C) \(y y''= (y^1)^2\)
