I. State whether the given is linear or non-linear, ordinary or partial. Identify its order,
dependent variable, and independent variable/variables.

Note on Derivative Symbols: Symbols of derivatives can be any of these forms:

II. Verify that the given function or functions is a solution of the given de on the specified
interval/intervals.

Note on interval:
● Interval (9, ∞) is an open interval. Meaning, variable 𝑥 can have any value from 9 and ∞ but
not including 9 and ∞. Other way to say it is that it includes all the numbers in the positive 𝑥
axis that are greater than 9.
● Interval [0, 8) means 𝑥 can have values equal to 0 and greater than 0 but less than 8.
● Interval [-2,2] means 𝑥 can be equal to − 2, 2, and numbers in between.
