Show that the following differential equation is homogeneous, and then solve it:

Given: ![]()
To find: a particular solution of the given differential equation

![]()
{∵ λ0= 1}
So, F(x, y) is a homogeneous function of degree zero
⇒ It is a homogeneous differential equation
Let y = vx
Differentiating with respect to x:

Let log v – 1 = t
![]()
![]()
![]()
Now, put t = log v – 1:
⇒ log(log v – 1) = log |x| + log v + log c
⇒ log(log v – 1) = log vxc
⇒ log v – 1 = vxc
Put
:

![]()

Hence, the solution of differential equation is ![]()
