Question 1

What form does a first-order linear differential equation take?

  • \\( \\frac{dy}{dx} + P(y)x = Q(x) \\)
  • \\( \\frac{dy}{dx} + P(x)y = Q(x) \\)
  • \\( dy + P(x)y = Q(y) \\)

💡 Hint: Remember the relationship between the dependent variable and its rate of change.

Question 2

True or False: \( Q(x) \) represents the homogeneous part of the equation.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about what distinguishes non-homogeneous from homogeneous.
