        If a curve\[y=a\sqrt{x}+bx\]passes through the point (1, 2) and the area bounded by the curve, line\[x=4\]and\[x-\]axis is 8 sq units, then

    A)  \[a=3,b=-1\]                     

    B)  \[a=3,b=1\]

    C)  \[a=-3,b=1\]                     

    D)  \[a=-3,b=-1\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    We have, \[x={{t}^{2}}+3t-8\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{dx}{dt}=2t+3\] and        \[y=2{{t}^{2}}-2t-5\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{dy}{dt}=4t-2\] Now,      \[\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{dy/dt}{dx/dt}=\frac{4t-2}{2t+3}\] Now, for\[x=2\]and\[y=-1,\]we have \[{{t}^{2}}+3t-8=2\]and \[2{{t}^{2}}-2t-5=-1\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{t}^{2}}+3t-10=0\] and        \[{{t}^{2}}-t-2=0\] Solving these two equations, we get \[t=2\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}_{(2,-1)}}=\frac{4\times 2-2}{2\times 2+3}=\frac{6}{7}\]
