The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the equation of the curve given that the slope of the tangent at any point is twice the product of the abscissa (x-coordinate) and the square of the ordinate (y-coordinate). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Slope**: The slope of the tangent to the curve at any point \((x, y)\) is given by \(\frac{dy}{dx}\). According to the problem, this slope is equal to \(2xy^2\). \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = 2xy^2 \] **Hint**: Remember that the slope of the tangent line at a point on a curve is represented by the derivative \(\frac{dy}{dx}\). 2. **Rearranging the Equation**: We can rearrange the equation to separate the variables \(y\) and \(x\): \[ \frac{dy}{y^2} = 2x \, dx \] **Hint**: To separate variables, we want all terms involving \(y\) on one side and all terms involving \(x\) on the other side. 3. **Integrating Both Sides**: Now, we integrate both sides. The left side involves integrating \(\frac{1}{y^2}\) and the right side involves integrating \(2x\): \[ \int \frac{dy}{y^2} = \int 2x \, dx \] The left side integrates to \(-\frac{1}{y}\) and the right side integrates to \(x^2 + C\): \[ -\frac{1}{y} = x^2 + C \] **Hint**: Remember to add the constant of integration \(C\) after integrating the right side. 4. **Rearranging the Equation**: We can rearrange this equation to express \(y\) in terms of \(x\): \[ -1 = x^2y + Cy \] **Hint**: You can multiply both sides by \(-1\) to simplify the equation. 5. **Final Form of the Equation**: Rearranging gives us the final equation of the curve: \[ x^2y + Cy + 1 = 0 \] **Hint**: This is the standard form of the equation of the curve, where \(C\) is an arbitrary constant. ### Conclusion: Thus, the equation of the curve is: \[ x^2y + Cy + 1 = 0 \] This matches with the option provided in the problem statement.
