SUMMARY
The discussion revolves around the evaluation of four mathematical statements regarding differential equations and their solutions. The correct interpretation of the statements is crucial for determining their validity. Specifically, statement 1.1 incorrectly suggests that if \( y' = 3y \), then \( y = e^{2x} \). Statement 1.3 incorrectly states that if \( y' = 2y \), then \( y = 2e^{2x} \). Statements 1.2 and 1.4 lack sufficient information to be evaluated properly.
