If \(z\) be a homogeneous function of \(x, y\) of order \(n\), then \(x\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}+y\frac{\partial z}{\partial y}=nz\) all
Proof: Since \(z\) is a homogeneous function of \(x, y\) of order \(n\). \(z=x^{n}f(\frac{y}{x}) \dots (1)\)
\(\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}=n~x^{n-1}f(\frac{y}{x})+x^{n}.f^{\prime}(\frac{y}{x}).(-\frac{y}{x^{2}}).\) or \(\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}=n~x^{n-1}f(\frac{y}{x})-y~x^{n-2}f^{\prime}(\frac{y}{x})\)
Multiplying both sides by \(x\), we get, \(x\frac{dz}{dx}=nx^{n}f(\frac{y}{x})-yx^{n-1}f^{\prime}(\frac{y}{x}) \dots (2)\)
Again from (1), we have, \(\frac{\partial z}{\partial y}=x^{n}f^{\prime}(\frac{y}{x}),\frac{1}{x}\) or \(\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}=x^{n-1}f^{\prime}(\frac{\nu}{x}) \dots (3)\)
Multiplying both sides by \(y\), we get, \(y\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}=y~x^{n-1}f^{\prime}(\frac{y}{x})\).
Adding (2) and (3), we get, \(x\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}+y\frac{\partial z}{\partial y}=nz\)
