LEARNING OUTCOMES
• At the end of the discussion, the
students should be able to:
• explain the meaning of a differential equation, its
type, order and degree;

number of independent variables, order and
linearity; and
• differentiate between ordinary and partial differential
equations, and between general and particular
solutions.

Differential Equation
(DE)
➢an equation that involves the derivatives of one

or more unknown functions (or dependent
variables) with respect to one or more
independent variables
• Note:
➢If an equation involves the derivative of one
variable with respect to another, then the
former is called a dependent variable and the
latter an independent variable.
➢Dependent variable - unknown function
➢Independent variable - variable of the unknown
function
➢Parameter – an arbitrary constant found in the
equation
• Example
Unknown function
or dependent variable
d2 x
2
+ 16x = 0
dt
independent variable

solution by assigning particular values to
the arbitrary constants

arbitrary constant (not obtained from the general solution
by assigning particular values to the arbitrary constants)

• a solution in which the dependent variable is
expressed solely in terms of the independent variable
