The solution of the differential equation $(2 x-4 y+3) \frac{d y}{d x}+(x-2 y+1)=0$ is ( $C$ is an arbitrary constant)
  1. $\log [(2 x-4 y)+3]=x-2 y+C$
  2. $\log [2(2 x-4 y)+3]=2(x-2 y)+C$
  3. $\log [2(x-2 y)+5]=2(x+y)+C$
  4. $\log [4(x-2 y)+5]=4(x+2 y)+C$

Solution

Given differential equation, $\begin{aligned} & (2 x-4 y+3) \frac{d y}{d x}+(x-2 y+1)=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{(x-2 y+1)}{2(x-2 y+3)} \quad \ldots \text { (i) } \end{aligned}$ Let, $x-2 y=v \Rightarrow 1-2 \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{d y}{d x}$ $\therefore \frac{1}{2}\left(1-\frac{d y}{d x}\right)=\frac{d y}{d x}$ Now, substitute $v=x-2 y$ and $\frac{d y}{d x}$ in eq. (i) integration both the sides, we get $\begin{aligned} & \therefore \quad \frac{1}{2}\left(1-\frac{d v}{d x}\right)=-\left(\frac{v+1}{2 v+3}\right) \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \frac{d v}{d x}=1+\frac{2 v+2}{2 v+3} \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{2 v+2}{4 v+5} d v=d x \\ & \frac{1}{2} \int \frac{4 v+6}{4 v+5} d v=\int d x \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2} \int\left(\frac{4 v+6}{4 v+5}+\frac{1}{4 v+5}\right) d v=\int d x \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2} v+\frac{1}{2 \times 4} \log [4 v+5]=x+C \\ & \Rightarrow 4 v+\log [4 v+5]=8 x+C \\ & \Rightarrow 4(x-2 y)+\log [4(x-2 y)+5]=8 x+C \\ & \Rightarrow \log [4(x-2 y)+5]=4(x+2 y)+C \end{aligned}$
