Question
**Question 1:**

*What is the order of the differential equations shown below?*

\[ x^2 \frac{d\theta(x)}{dx} + 2\theta(x) + \frac{d^3\theta(x)}{dx^3} = x^4. \]

Options:
- ○ 4
- ○ 2
- ● 3
- ○ 1

**Explanation:**
The highest derivative in this equation is \(\frac{d^3\theta(x)}{dx^3}\), which is a third derivative. Therefore, the order of the differential equation is **3**.

---

**Question 2:**

*What is the order of the set of differential equations shown below?*

\[ \frac{dy(t)}{dt} + y(t) = 2x(t) \]

\[ \frac{dx(t)}{dt} + x(t) = \frac{d^2y(t)}{dt^2} \]

Options:
- ○ 4
- ○ 3
- ○ 1
- ● 2

**Explanation:**
In the given set, the highest derivative is \(\frac{d^2y(t)}{dt^2}\), which is a second derivative. Hence, the order of the set of differential equations is **2**.
