Let f be a differentiable function such that x2f(x)-x=4∫0xtf(t) dt, f(1)=23. Then 18f(3) is equal to [2023]
(3)
We have, x2f(x)-x=4∫0xtf(t) dt
⇒ 2xf(x)+x2f'(x)-1=4xf(x)
⇒ x2dydx-2xy=1 [ f(x)=y, f'(x)=dydx]
⇒ dydx-2yx=1x2, which is a linear differential equation.
I.F.=e∫-2x dx=e-2logx=1x2
∴ Solution is given by
yx2=∫1x4 dx+C⇒ yx2=-13x3+C ...(i)
At x=1, y=23 [∵f(1)=23]
23=-13+C ⇒ C=1
∴ y=-13x+x2⇒f(x)=-13x+x2
Now, 18f(3)=18[-19+9]=160
