If y = y(x) is the solution of the differential equation, x dy/dx + 2y = x² satisfying y(1) = 1, then y(1/2) is equal to:

  1. 7/64
  2. 49/16
  3. 1/4
  4. 13/16

Correct answer: 49/16

Solution

The correct option is right because solving the differential equation using an integrating factor leads to the particular solution that satisfies the initial condition, and evaluating this solution at x = 1/2 yields the value 49/16.
