Write the differential equation representing the family of curves y = mx, where m is an arbitrary constant.
To get the differential equation form an algebraic equations we need to remove the arbitrary constants by differentiating equation.
As, y = mx
We need to remove m to get the differential equation.
Differentiating w.r.t to x, we get-
![]()
∵ ![]()
∴ ![]()
Substituting the value of m in given equation we get,
∴
is the required differential equation.
