Diff. Equ. of First Order But Not of First Degree
Diff. Equ. of First Order But Not of First Degree
dy
It is convenient if we put p and so the above equation becomes
dx
f ( x, y , p ) 0
Such equations can be solved by one or more of some methods given in this chapter. In each
of these methods, the given problem is reduced to that of solving one or more equations of
the first order and the first degree.
If the differential equation f ( x, y, p ) 0 is solvable for p , then it can be put in the form
Equating each factor of (1) to zero, we obtain n equations of the first order and the first
degree, namely

Since all c ’s can have any one of an infinite values, the above solutions (3) will remain
general if we replace c1 , c 2 ,......... , c n by a single arbitrary constant c . Then the n solutions (3)
can be re-written as F1 ( x, y, c) 0, F2 ( x, y, c) 0, .......... .., Fn ( x, y, c) 0 .
F1 ( x, y, c). F2 ( x, y, c) .......... .. Fn ( x, y, c) 0
* Since the given equation (1) is of the first order, its general solution cannot have more than
one arbitrary constant.
