Correct Answer - C
Since the given differential equation `(dx)/(dy)=h((x)/(y))` is homogenous, therefore put `x=vy`,
`(dx)/(dy)=v+y(dv)/(dy)`
`:. V+y(dv)/(dy)=hvimpliesy(dv)/(dy)=v(h-1)`
`implies (1)/((h-1)v)dv=(1)/(y)dy`
On integration, `(1)/((h-1))int(1)/(v)dv=int(dy)/(y)`
`implies (1)/((h-1))log|v|=log|y|+C`
