Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The equation of the curve is
`(y-x^(5))^(2)=x(1+x^(2))^(2)`
Differentiating both sides with respect ot x, we get
`2(y-x^(5))((dy)/(dx)-5x^(4))=(1+x^(2))^(2)+4x^(2)(1+x^(2))`
Putting, x = 1, y = 3 on both sides, we get
`4((dy)/(dx)-5)=4+8rArr (dy)/(dx)=8`
