The integrating factor of the differential equation \(x^2 \frac{d y}{d x}+x y=\log _e x\) is equal to :

  1. A \(e^x\)
  2. B \(e^{x^2 / 2}\)
  3. C \(x\)
  4. D \(\log _e x\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(x\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{d y}{d x} + \frac{1}{x} y = \frac{\log _e x}{x^2}\) \(P(x) = \frac{1}{x}\) \(IF = e^{\int P(x) dx} = e^{\int \frac{1}{x} dx} = e^{\log_e x} = x\)
