Let f be a differentiable function such that 2(x+2)2f(x)–3(x+2)2=10∫0x(t+2)f(t)dt, x≥0. Then f(2) is equal to _________. [2025]
(19)
We have,
2(x+2)2f(x)–3(x+2)2=10∫0x(t+2)f(t)dt, x≥0 ... (i)
On differentiating, we get
4(x+2)f(x)+2(x+2)2f'(x)–6(x+2)=10(x+2)f(x)
⇒ 2(x+2)2f'(x)–6(x+2)f(x)=6(x+2)
⇒ (x+2)f'(x)–3f(x)=3
⇒ (x+2)dydx–3y=3 [∵ f'(x)=dydx and f(x)=y]
⇒ dydx=3(1+y)(x+2) ⇒ dy3(1+y)=dx(x+2)
Integrating on both sides, we get
∫dy(1+y)=3∫dx(x+2) ⇒ ln(1+y)=3ln(x+2)+lnC
⇒ (1+y)=C(x+2)3 ... (ii)
Put x = 0 in equation (i), we get
2(2)2f(0)–3(2)2=0 ⇒ f(0)=32
From (ii), 1+32=C(2)3 ⇒ C=516
∴ y=516(x+2)3–1=f(x)
∴ f(2)=516×64–1=19
