NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Maths Chapter 9 Differential Equations (Ex 9.3) Exercise 9.3
In each of the questions 1 to 5, form a differential equation representing the given family of curves by eliminating arbitrary constants a and b
1.

Here there are two arbitrary constants a and b, therefore we will differentiate both sides two times w.r.t. x,
……….(ii)
Again differentiating w.r.t. ,
=>
Multiplying both sides by
, which the required differential equation.
2.

Here there are two arbitrary constants a and b, therefore we will differentiate both sides two times w.r.t. x,
……….(ii)
Again differentiating w.r.t. x,
……….(iii)
Putting this value of -a from eq (i) in eq. (ii), we get
=>
3.

Here there are two arbitrary constants a and b, therefore we will differentiate both sides two times w.r.t. x,
……….(ii)
Again differentiating w.r.t. x
=>d2ydx2=9ae3x+4be−2x=>d2ydx2=9ae3x+4be−2x ……….(iii)
Multiplying eq. (i) by 3 and subtracting eq. (ii) from it, we get
……….(iv)
Again multiplying eq. (ii) by 3 and subtracting it from eq. (iii), we get
……….(v)
Now, eq. (v) + 2 eq. (iv) gives,
, which is required differential equation.
4.

Here there are two arbitrary constants a and b, therefore we will differentiate both sides two times w.r.t. x
[By eq. (i)]……….(ii)
Again differentiating w.r.t. x,
=> ……….(iii)
Now from eq. (ii),
Putting this value of in eq. (iii),
=>
5.

Here there are two arbitrary constants a and b, therefore we will differentiate both sides two times w.r.t. x
[By eq. (i)]……….(ii)
Again differentiating w.r.t. ,
=>
[By eq. (i)]
6. Form the differential equation of the family of circles touching the
axis at the origin.
Therefore, the centre of the circle is (r,0) where r is the radius of the circle.

=>
……….(iii)
Dividing eq. (iii) by eq. (ii), we get
, which is required differential equation.
10. Form the differential equation of the family of circles having centres on y-axis and radius 3 units.

Centre of the circle on y- axis is
.
Equation of the circle having centre on y-axis an radius
unit is
……….(i)
Here is the only arbitrary constant, therefore we will differentiate only once.
Putting this value of in eq. (i), we get
=>
11. Which of the following differential equation has
as the general solution:
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)

[From eq. (i)]
Therefore, option (B) is correct.
12. Which of the following differential equations has
as one of its particular solutions:
(A)

L.H.S. of differential equation of option (C) =
=
=
= R.H.S. of option (C)
Therefore, option (C) is correct.
