Question 6 If ๐ฅ= โซ1_0^๐ฆโใ ๐๐ก/โ(1 + 9๐ก^2 )ใ and (๐^2 ๐ฆ)/(๐๐ฅ^2 )=๐๐ฆ, then ๐ is equal to 3 (B) 6 (C) 9 (D) 1 Since ๐ฅ= โซ1_0^๐ฆโใ ๐๐ก/โ(1 + 9๐ก^2 )ใ Changing variable from t to y ๐ฅ= โซ1_0^๐ฆโใ ๐๐ฆ/โ(1 + 9๐ฆ^2 )ใ It means x is a function of y So, we can write ๐ ๐/๐ ๐=๐/โ(๐ + ๐๐^๐ ) And, ๐๐/๐๐ฑ=โ(1 + 9๐ฆ^2 ) Differentiating again w.r.t x (๐^๐ ๐)/(๐๐ฑ^๐ )=๐/(๐โ(1 + 9๐ฆ^2 )) ร๐ (๐๐^๐ )/๐ ๐ (d^2 ๐ฆ)/(dx^2 )=1/(2โ(1 + 9๐ฆ^2 )) ร 9 ร 2๐ฆ ร๐ ๐/๐ ๐ Putting value of ๐๐ฆ/๐๐ฅ (๐^๐ ๐)/(๐๐ฑ^๐ )=๐/(๐โ(1 + 9๐ฆ^2 )) ร ๐ ร ๐๐ รโ(1 + 9๐ฆ^2 ) (๐^๐ ๐)/(๐๐ฑ^๐ )=๐๐ Thus, a = 9 So, the correct answer is (c)
