Differential Equations 3 Question 7

7.

Tangent is drawn at any point P of a curve which passes through (1, 1) cutting X-axis and Y-axis at A and B, respectively. If BP:AP=3:1, then

(2006, 3M)

(a) differential equation of the curve is 3xdydx+y=0

(b) differential equation of the curve is 3xdydxy=0

(c) curve is passing through (18,2)

(d) normal at (1,1) is x+3y=4.

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 7. (a, c)

Solution:

  1. Since, BP:AP=3:1. Then, equation of tangent is

Yy=f(x)(Xx)

The intercept on the coordinate axes are

A(xyf(x),0)

and

B[0,yxf(x)]

Since, P is internally intercepts a line AB,

x=3(xyf(x))+1×03+1

dydx=y3xdyy=13xdx

On integrating both sides, we get

xy3=c

Since, curve passes through (1,1), then c=1.

xy3=1

At x=18y=2

Hence, (a) and (c) are correct answers.
