Question

The Integrating factor of a differential equation is also called the primitive.

(a) True

(b) False

I have been asked this question by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.

The doubt is from Non-Homogeneous Linear PDE with Constant Coefficient topic in section Partial Differential Equations of Engineering Mathematics

Answer 1

Correct answer is (b) False

Explanation: The general solution of a differential equation is also called the primitive. The solution of a partial differential equation obtained by eliminating the arbitrary constants is called a general solution.
