The point on the curve y=6x-x^2 at which...

The point on the curve `y=6x-x^2` at which the tangent to the curve is inclined at `pi//4` to the line `x+y=0` is `(-3,\ -27)` (b) `(3,\ 9)` (c) `7//2,\ 35//4)` (d) `(0,\ 0)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`y=6x−x^2 `
⇒`y′=6−2x` as tangent is parallel to line `x+y=0` slope `=-1`
⇒`6−2x=-1` ⇒`x=7/2` So `y=37/4`
Hence the point of tangency is `(7/2,37/4)`
