    The curve \[y=a{{x}^{3}}+b{{x}^{2}}+cx\] is inclined by \[45{}^\circ \] to x-axis at origin and it touches x-axis at (1,0). Then

    A) \[a=-2,b=1,c=1\]

    B) \[a=1,b=1,c=-2\]

    C) \[a=1,b=-2,c=1\]  

    D) \[a=-1,b=2,c=1\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[y'=3a{{x}^{2}}+2bx+c\]      \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,a+b+c=0\]
    \[y'(0,0)=c=1\]               \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,a+b=-1\]
    \[y=a{{x}^{3}}+b{{x}^{2}}+cx\]
    \[\frac{dy}{dx}=3a{{x}^{3}}+2bx+c\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}_{(0,0)}}=c=1\]
    and \[{{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}_{(1,0)}}=3a+2b+c=0\]  
    \[\therefore \,\,\,\,3a+2b=-1\] ...(1)
    Point (1, 0) lies on curve \[\therefore \,\,\,a+b+c=0\]
    \[\therefore \,\,\,a+b=-1\] ...(2)
    By (1) & (2) \[a=1,\,\,b=-2\]
