Question
Verify y = log x + c is the solution of differential equation `x ("d"^2y)/("d"x^2) + ("d"y)/("d"x)` = 0

Solution
y = log x + c
Differentiating w.r.t. x, we get
`("d"y)/("d"x) = 1/x`
∴ `x ("d"y)/("d"x)` = 1
Again, differentiating w.r.t. x, we get
`x ("d"^2y)/("d"x^2) + ("d"y)/("d"x)` = 0
∴ Given function is a solution of the given differential equation.
