If $y=a^3 e^{b^2 x+c}$ is the general solution of a differential equation, where $a$ and $c$ are arbitrary constants and $b$ is a fixed constant, then the order of differential equation is
  1. 1
  2. 2
  3. 3
  4. 4

Solution

$y=a^3 e^{b^2 x+c} \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=b^2 a^3 e^{b^2 x+c} \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=b^2 y$
Hence, order is 1 .
