A) 3
B) 5
C) 6
D) 7
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
[b] Equation of tangent at point \[P(x,y)\] on the curve \[y=f(x)\] is \[Y-y=\frac{dy}{dx}\,(X-x)\] X-intercept of tangent is \[x-\frac{y}{f'(x)}\] According to the question, \[x-\frac{y}{f'(x)}={{x}^{2}}\Rightarrow \frac{xf'(x)-f(x)}{{{x}^{2}}}=f'(x)\] Integrating both sides with respect to x, we get \[\frac{f(x)}{x}=f(x)+C\] Since \[f(2)=1,\,\,C=\frac{-1}{2}.\] Then \[f(x)=\frac{x}{2(x-1)}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,{{f}^{-1}}\left( \frac{5}{8} \right)=5\]You need to login to perform this action.
