Options:
  • A $y+1=e^{f(x)}+f(x)$
  • B $y-1=e^{f(x)}+f(x)$
  • C $y+1=e^{-f(x)}+f(x)$
  • D $y-1=e^{-f f] x}+f(x)$

The correct answer is: $y+1=e^{-f(x)}+f(x)$
Hint:
$\frac{d y}{d x}+f^{\prime}(x) y=f^{\prime}(x) f(x)$
$\Rightarrow y \times e^{f(x)}=\int f^{\prime}(x) f(x) e^{f(x)} d x$
$\Rightarrow y \times e^{f(x)}=e^{f(x)}(f(x)-1)+c \quad[$ Putting $f(x)=0 ; y=0, c=1]$
$\Rightarrow y \times e^{f(x)}=e^{f(x)}(f(x)-1)+1$
$\Rightarrow y=f(x)-1+e^{-f(x)}$
$\Rightarrow y+1=e^{-f(x)}+f(x)$
