Let for some function y = f(x), ∫0xtf(t)dt=x2f(x), x>0 and f(2) = 3. Then f(6) is equal to [2025]
(3)
We have, ∫0xtf(x)dt=x2f(x), x>0
Differentiate the given equation, we get
xf(x)=2xf(x)+x2f'(x)
⇒ xf(x)=–x2f'(x) ⇒ f(x)=–xf'(x)
⇒ ∫f'(x)f(x)dx=–∫1xdx ⇒ log f(x)=–log x+log C
⇒ log f(x)=–log x + log C ⇒ f(x)=Cx
We have, f(2)=3; f(2)=3=C2 ⇒ C=6
So, f(x)=6x ⇒ f(6)=66=1
