1. Second order; linear
2. Third order; nonlinear because of (dy/dx)4
3. Fourth order; linear
4. Second order; nonlinear because of cos(r + u)
√
5. Second order; nonlinear because of (dy/dx)2 or 1 + (dy/dx)2
6. Second order; nonlinear because of R2
7. Third order; linear
8. Second order; nonlinear because of x˙2
9. Writing the differential equation in the form x(dy/dx) + y2 = 1, we see that it is nonlinear in y because of y2 .
However, writing it in the form (y2 − 1)(dx/dy) + x = 0, we see that it is linear in x.
10. Writing the differential equation in the form u(dv/du) + (1 + u)v = ueu we see that it is linear in v. However,
writing it in the form (v + uv − ueu)(du/dv) + u = 0, we see that it is nonlinear in u.
11. From y = e−x/2 we obtain y′ = −2 1 e−x/2. Then 2y′ + y = −e−x/2 + e−x/2 = 0.
12. From y = 6 − 6 e−20t we obtain dy/dt = 24e−20t, so that

13. From y = e3x cos 2x we obtain y′ = 3e3x cos 2x − 2e3x sin 2x and y′′ = 5e3x cos 2x − 12e3x sin 2x, so that
y′′ − 6y′ + 13y = 0.
14. From y = − cos x ln(sec x + tan x) we obtain y′ = −1 + sin x ln(sec x + tan x) and
y′′ = tan x + cos x ln(sec x + tan x). Then y′′ + y = tan x.
15. The domain of the function, found by solving x + 2 ≥ 0, is [−2, ∞). From y′ = 1 + 2(x + 2)−1/2 we have
—
(y − x)y′ = (y − x)[1 + (2(x + 2) 1/2 ]
—
= y − x + 2(y − x)(x + 2) 1/2
—
= y − x + 2[x + 4(x + 2)1/2 x](x + 2) 1/2
−
= y − x + 8(x + 2)1/2(x + 2)−1/2 = y − x + 8.
