    We consider equivalence problem for equations of a degenerate type, which involve, for example, the first Painlevé equation. In terms of algebraic and differential invariants of the family of equations with the cubic nonlinearity in the first-order derivative, we obtain the necessary condition of equivalence to some equations of this type with a known solution. We prove a criterion of equivalence to the first Painlevé equation under point transformations.
