Order of a differential equation is the order of the highest derivative.
Linearity:
In a differential equation,when the variables and its derivatives are only multiplied by constants,then the differential equation is linear.other wise it is non-linear
That is, the variables and their derivatives are always be in simple first power.
Given, (y)2+8y=4t
In this equation,the order of the highest derivative is one.
So, it is a first order differential equation.
Here the variable y has the power 2.
So, the differential equation is nonlinear.
Thus,
Option (d) is the correct answer.
