Correct Answer :

Option D

-5/2

Solution :

The correct answer is -5/2.

Step-by-step Explanation:

We are given the linear differential equation:

secxdydx2y=2+3sinx

First, let's rewrite the differential equation in standard linear form, dydx+P(x)y=Q(x), by multiplying the entire equation by cosx:

dydx2cosx·y=2cosx+3sinxcosx

Here, P(x)=2cosx and Q(x)=2cosx+3sinxcosx.

Step 1: Find the Integrating Factor (I.F.)

I.F.=eP(x)dx=e2cosxdx=e2sinx

Step 2: General Solution of the Differential Equation

The general solution is given by:

y·(I.F.)=Q(x)·(I.F.)dx+C

ye2sinx=(2cosx+3sinxcosx)e2sinxdx+C

To evaluate the integral, substitute t=sinx, which gives dt=cosxdx:

I=(2+3t)e2tdt

Using integration by parts:

I=(2+3t)e2t23e2t2dt

I=12(2+3t)e2t34e2t

I=e2t(1+32t+34)=e2t(74+32t)

Substituting t=sinx back into the solution:

ye2sinx=e2sinx(74+32sinx)+C

y=(74+32sinx)+Ce2sinx

Step 3: Find the constant C using initial condition

Given that y(0)=74:

74=(74+32sin0)+Ce2sin0

74=74+CC=0

So, the particular solution is:

y(x)=(74+32sinx)

Step 4: Calculate y(π6)

Substitute x=π6:

y(π6)=(74+32sinπ6)

Since sinπ6=12:

y(π6)=(74+32·12)=(74+34)=104=52

Thus, the value of y(π6) is -5/2.
