The solution of the differential equation dydx=(1+x2)(1+y2)\frac{dy}{dx} = (1 + x^2)(1 + y^2) is (Here C is an arbitrary constant)

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

The differential equation dydx=(1+x2)(1+y2)\frac{dy}{dx} = (1 + x^2)(1 + y^2) is a separable differential equation.

The right side is a product of a function of xx and a function of yy.


Separating the variables:

dy(1+y2)=(1+x2)dx\frac{dy}{(1 + y^2)} = (1 + x^2)dx


Integrating both sides:

∫dy(1+y2)=∫(1+x2)dx\int \frac{dy}{(1 + y^2)} = \int (1 + x^2)dx


For the left side:

∫dy(1+y2)=tan⁡−1y\int \frac{dy}{(1 + y^2)} = \tan^{-1}y


For the right side:

∫(1+x2)dx=∫1⋅dx+∫x2dx\int (1 + x^2)dx = \int 1 \cdot dx + \int x^2 dx

=x+x33= x + \frac{x^3}{3}


Combining both sides:

tan⁡−1y=x+x33+C\tan^{-1}y = x + \frac{x^3}{3} + C


Rearranging:

tan⁡−1y−x−x33=C\tan^{-1}y - x - \frac{x^3}{3} = C

Therefore, the solution is tan⁡−1y−x−x33=C\tan^{-1} y - x - \frac{x^3}{3} = C
