Ordering Values of a Particular Solution

Question

The particular solution to the differential equation $$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{4x}{y}$$ with the initial condition $$y(0)=5$$ is given by $$y=\sqrt{4x^2+25}$$. Based on the table of values below, which of the following lists the $$x$$-values 0, 1, 2, and 3 in increasing order of their corresponding $$y$$-values?

| $$x$$ | $$y = \sqrt{4x^2+25}$$ |
|:---:|:---:|
| 0 | $$\sqrt{25}=5$$ |
| 1 | $$\sqrt{29}$$ |
| 2 | $$\sqrt{41}$$ |
| 3 | $$\sqrt{61}$$ |

Accepted Answer

0,1,2,3

Answer

0,2,1,3

Answer

1,0,2,3

Answer

3,2,1,0

$x$	$y = \sqrt{4x^2+25}$
0	$\sqrt{25}=5$
1	$\sqrt{29}$
2	$\sqrt{41}$
3	$\sqrt{61}$
