We obtain sufficient conditions for every solution of the differential equation [ y ( t ) - p ( t ) y ( r ( t ) ) ] ( n ) + v ( t ) G ( y ( g ( t ) ) ) - u ( t ) H ( y ( h ( t ) ) ) = f ( t ) to oscillate or to tend to zero as t approaches infinity. In particular, we extend the results of Karpuz, Rath and Padhy (2008) to the case when G has sub-linear growth at infinity. Our results also apply to the neutral equation [ y ( t ) - p ( t ) y ( r ( t ) ) ] ( n ) + q ( t ) G ( y ( g ( t ) ) ) = f ( t ) when q ( t ) has sign changes. Both bounded and unbounded solutions are consideted here; thus some known results are expanded.
