Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

3e – 1

Solution :

The correct answer is 3e – 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the first-order differential equation:
dydx=2+lnx
with the initial condition:
y(1)=e

Step 1: Integrate the differential equation
We can find the general solution by integrating both sides of the equation with respect to x:
y=(2+lnx)dx
We can split the integration into two parts:
y=2dx+lnxdx

Step 2: Evaluate the integrals
The first integral is simple:
2dx=2x
For the second integral, we use integration by parts, udv=uv-vdu, where we let:
u=lnxdu=1xdx
and
dv=dxv=x
Applying the integration by parts formula:
lnxdx=xlnx-x1xdx=xlnx-x

Combining the results of both integrals gives the general solution:
y(x)=2x+xlnx-x+C
Simplifying this expression yields:
y(x)=xlnx+x+C
where C is the constant of integration.

Step 3: Solve for the constant C
Using the initial condition y(1)=e, we substitute x=1 and set the equation equal to e:
e=1ln(1)+1+C
Since ln(1)=0, we have:
e=1+C
Solving for C gives:
C=e-1

Substituting C back into our general solution gives the particular solution:
y(x)=xlnx+x+e-1

Step 4: Find y(e)
Now we substitute x=e into the particular solution:
y(e)=eln(e)+e+e-1
Since ln(e)=1:
y(e)=e(1)+e+e-1
y(e)=3e-1
