Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
(a,c)

given, `y^(2) =2c(x+sqrt(c)) …(i)`
On differentiating w.r.t.x, we get
`2ydy/dx=2c rArr c=y dy/dx`
on putting this value of c in Eq. (i), we get
`y^(2) =2ydy/dx(x+sqrt(ydy/dx))`
`rArr y=2dy/dx cdot x+2y^(1//2) (dy/dx)^(3//2)`
`rArr y-2xdy/dx=2sqrt(y)(dy/dx)^(3//2)`
`rArr (y-2xdy/dx)^(2) =4y(dy/dx)^(3)`
Therefore, order of this differential equation is 1 and
degree is 3.
