As we learnt in 

Formation of Differential Equations -

A differential equation can be derived from its equation by the process of differentiation and other algebraical process of elimination

-

 

 Ax^{2}+ By^{2}= 1

\Rightarrow 2Ax+2By\frac{dy}{dx}= 0

\Rightarrow Ax+By\frac{dy}{dx}= 0

\Rightarrow A.1+B\left[\frac{dy}{dx}.\frac{dy}{dx}+y.\frac{d^2 y}{dx^2} \right ] = 0

\Rightarrow A+B\left[ \left(\frac{dy}{dx} \right )^{2}+y\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}\right ]=0

By eliminating A and B, 

xyy''+x(y')^{2}- yy'=0
