The differential equation satisfied by the equation y=aebxy = ae^{bx}, where aa and bb are arbitrary constants, is

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

From y=aebxy = ae^{bx}, dydx=by\frac{dy}{dx} = by and d2ydx2=bdydx=b2y\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = b\frac{dy}{dx} = b^2y.

Then yd2ydx2=b2y2y\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = b^2y^2 and (dydx)2=b2y2\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 = b^2y^2, so yd2ydx2=(dydx)2y\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2.
