Q.

Let f:[0,)R be a differentiable function such that f(x)=12x+0xextf(t)dt for all x[0,).

Then the area of the region bounded by y = f(x) and the coordinates axes is           [2025]

1 12  
2 2  
3 5  
4 2  

Ans.

We have, y=12x+ex0xe-tf(t)dt

 dydx=2+ex·exf(x)+ex0xe-tf(t)dt

                 =2+y+y+2x1

 dydx2y=2x3

This is a linear differential equation, so we have

ye2x=(2x3)·e2xdx+c          [ I.F.=e2dx=e2x]

 ye2x=(2x3)2e2x+e2x·dx+c

 ye2x=(2x3)2e2xe2x2+c

  f(0)=1         c=132+12=0

 y=(2x3)212  x+y=1

So, area =12×1×1=12.
