Answer:

Correct Answer: 8. (c)

Solution:

  1. Given, $\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{-\cos x(y+1)}{2+\sin x}$

$$ \Rightarrow \quad \frac{d y}{y+1}=\frac{-\cos x}{2+\sin x} d x $$

On integrating both sides

$$ \begin{aligned} \int \frac{d y}{y+1} & =-\int \frac{\cos x}{2+\sin x} d x \\ \Rightarrow \quad \log (y+1) & =-\log (2+\sin x)+\log c \end{aligned} $$

When $x=0, y=1 \Rightarrow c=4$

$$ \begin{array}{ll} \Rightarrow & y+1=\frac{4}{2+\sin x} \\ \therefore & y \frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{4}{3}-1 \\ \Rightarrow \quad y \frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{1}{3} \end{array} $$
