Question
Form the differential equation of all the circle which pass through the origin and whose centres lies in x-axis.

Answer

The equation of the family of circles that pass through the origin (0, 0) and whose centres lie on the x-axis is given by

$(\text{x}-\text{a})^2+\text{y}^2=\text{a}^2\ ...(1)$

where a are arbitrary constants.

As this equation has only one arbitrary constant, we shall get a first order differential equation.

Differentiating (1) with respect to x, we get

$2(\text{x}-\text{a})+2\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}-\text{a}+\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}+\text{y}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\text{a}$

Substituting the value of a in equation (2), we get

$\Big(\text{x}-\text{x}-\text{y}​​\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2+\text{y}^2=\Big(\text{x}+\text{y}​​\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2$

$\Rightarrow\text{y}^2\Big(​​\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2+\text{y}^2=\text{x}^2+2\text{xy}​​\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}^2\Big(​​\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)^2$

$\Rightarrow2\text{xy}​​\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{x}^2=\text{y}^2$

It is the required differential equation.

A toy company manufactures two types of dolls, A and B. Market tests and available resources have indicated that the combined production level should not exceed 1200 dolls per week and the demand for dolls type B is at most half of that for dolls of types A. Further, the production level of dolls of type A can exceed three times the production of dolls of other type by at most 600 units. If the company makes profit of Rs. 12 and Rs. 16 per doll respectively on dolls A and B, how many of each should be produced weekly in order to maximize the profit ?
