Differential equation - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_equationDifferential equations can be divided into several types. Apart from describing the properties of the equation itself, these classes of differential equations can help inform the choice of approach to a solution. Commonly used distinctions include whether the equation is ordinary or partial, linear or non-linear, and homogeneous or heterogeneous. This list is far from exhaustive; there are many other properties and subclasses of differential equations which can be very useful in speci…
Types of differential equations
www.api.simply.science › index › mathHence it is also called as linear differential equation. The highest derivative of 'y' is of order 'n'. Hence the order of the differential equation is 'n'. We shall consider linear differential equations of first order only i.e., n = 1 A general form of such equation is + Py = Q where P and Q are constants or functions of 'x' only.
