If a curve passes through the point (1, –2) and has slope of the tangent at any point (x, y) on it as , then the curve also passes through the point :
- A(–1, 2)
- B
- C
- D(3, 0)
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
- Form the differential equation
The slope is given by
So,
Rearrange into linear form:
- Solve the linear differential equation
This is a first-order linear differential equation:
with
The integrating factor is
Multiplying the equation by :
Left-hand side is a derivative:
Integrate:
Hence,
- Use the given point
Substitute , :
So,
Thus the curve is
- Check the options
We test which point satisfies
- Option A:
y = \frac{(-1)^2}{4} - \frac{9}{4(-1)^2} = \frac14 - \frac94 = -2 \neq 2.
Not correct. - **Option B:** $\left(-\sqrt2,1\right)$y = \frac{2}{4} - \frac{9}{8} = \frac12 - \frac98 = -\frac58 \neq 1.
Not correct. - **Option C:** $\left(\sqrt3,0\right)$y = \frac{3}{4} - \frac{9}{12} = \frac34 - \frac34 = 0.
Correct. - **Option D:** $(3,0)$y = \frac{9}{4} - \frac{9}{36} = \frac94 - \frac14 = 2 \neq 0.
\boxed{\left(\sqrt3,0\right)}.
