What to Focus On

  • Differential equation means an equation containing derivatives.
  • Ordinary differential equation involves only one independent variable.
  • Partial differential equation involves more than one independent variable.

  • Order depends on the highest derivative.
  • Degree is defined only for polynomial equations in derivatives.
  • Order and degree are always positive integers when defined.

  • A solution satisfies the differential equation after substitution.
  • General solution contains arbitrary constants.
  • Particular solution has no arbitrary constants.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Every differential equation has a degree.

If an equation has a second derivative, its degree must be 2.

The general solution and particular solution mean the same thing.
