Question

Define order of a differential equation.

Advertisements

Solution

Order of differential equation:

The order of a differential equation is the order of its highest order derivative that apears in the equation.
example: \[\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2} - 4\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right) = 2y\]
order of the differential equation is 2.
