Question

If the independent variable x is changed to y, then the differential equation xd2ydx2+(dydx)3(dydx)=0 is changed to xd2xdy2+(dxdy)2=k where k equals

Solution

dydx=1dxdy;d2ydx2=ddy⎜ ⎜ ⎜ ⎜1dxdy⎟ ⎟ ⎟ ⎟.dydx=1(dxdy)3d2xdy2
Hence, xd2ydx2+(dydx)3yddx=0
becomes x.1(dxdy)3d2xdy2+1(dxdy)31(dxdy)=0
or xd2xdy21+(dxdy)2=0 or xd2xdy2+(dxdy)2=1
k=1
