**Converting Non-Linear Equations to Linear Equations**

**Objective:** Convert the following non-linear equation into a linear equation using the substitution \( v = y^{1-n} \). Do not solve the equation.

\[
y'' - 4y = \frac{8x}{y^2}
\]

### Possible Solutions:

1. \( v'' - 12v = 24x \) (Highlighted option)
2. \( v'' - 8v = 16x \)
3. \( v'' - 8v = 24x \)
4. \( v'' + 12v = 12x \)

**Explanation:**

The substitution method involves transforming a given non-linear differential equation into a linear form through a change of variables. Here, the variable \( v \) is defined as \( v = y^{1-n} \), which simplifies the original equation into a more manageable linear form. The solutions provided offer several transformed variations, with the correct choice marked.
