The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "higher_order_missing_y"
Maple gives the following as the ode type
[[_3rd_order, _missing_y]]
\[ \boxed {x y^{\prime \prime \prime }-y^{\prime \prime }=0} \] Since \(y\) is missing from the ode then we can use the substitution \(y^{\prime } = v \left (x \right )\) to reduce the order by one. The ODE becomes \begin {align*} x v^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right )-v^{\prime }\left (x \right ) = 0 \end {align*}
Integrating both sides of the ODE w.r.t \(x\) gives \begin {align*} \int \left (x v^{\prime \prime }\left (x \right )-v^{\prime }\left (x \right )\right )d x &= 0 \\ v^{\prime }\left (x \right ) x -2 v \left (x \right ) = c_{1} \end {align*}
Which is now solved for \(v \left (x \right )\). In canonical form the ODE is \begin {align*} v' &= F(x,v)\\ &= f( x) g(v)\\ &= \frac {2 v +c_{1}}{x} \end {align*}
Where \(f(x)=\frac {1}{x}\) and \(g(v)=2 v +c_{1}\). Integrating both sides gives \begin{align*} \frac {1}{2 v +c_{1}} \,dv &= \frac {1}{x} \,d x \\ \int { \frac {1}{2 v +c_{1}} \,dv} &= \int {\frac {1}{x} \,d x} \\ \frac {\ln \left (v +\frac {c_{1}}{2}\right )}{2}&=\ln \left (x \right )+c_{2} \\ \end{align*} Raising both side to exponential gives \begin {align*} \frac {\sqrt {4 v +2 c_{1}}}{2} &= {\mathrm e}^{\ln \left (x \right )+c_{2}} \end {align*}
Which simplifies to \begin {align*} \frac {\sqrt {4 v +2 c_{1}}}{2} &= c_{3} x \end {align*}
But since \(y^{\prime } = v \left (x \right )\) then we now need to solve the ode \(y^{\prime } = c_{3}^{2} {\mathrm e}^{2 c_{2}} x^{2}-\frac {c_{1}}{2}\). Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} y &= \int { c_{3}^{2} {\mathrm e}^{2 c_{2}} x^{2}-\frac {c_{1}}{2}\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= \frac {c_{3}^{2} {\mathrm e}^{2 c_{2}} x^{3}}{3}-\frac {c_{1} x}{2}+c_{4} \end {align*}
Summary
The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= \frac {c_{3}^{2} {\mathrm e}^{2 c_{2}} x^{3}}{3}-\frac {c_{1} x}{2}+c_{4} \\ \end{align*}
Verification of solutions
\[ y = \frac {c_{3}^{2} {\mathrm e}^{2 c_{2}} x^{3}}{3}-\frac {c_{1} x}{2}+c_{4} \] Verified OK.
