In this paper, we study one class of nonlinear binomial differential equation
$ (f(z))^{n}+a(f^{(k)}(z))^{n} = p_{1}e^{\lambda_{1}z}+p_{2}e^{\lambda_{2}z}, $
where $ n, k\in \mathbb{N^{+}} $, $ a $, $ p_i $, and $ \lambda_i $ are nonzero constants for $ i = 1, 2 $. Some results answer the previous conjecture given by Linkui Gao and Junyang Gao.
