Let n (0, ) . If all the curves y = x ^ n x for distinct values of n , always have y=x-1 as the tangent drawn at a fixed point ( , ) , then + =
Options
- A0
- B2
- C1
- D3
Correct answer
C. 1
Step-by-step solution
y=x^n x for n=1, y=x x d y d x = x+1 y = x -1 is tangent line for curve (i) also. x+1=1 x =0 x =1 Now, y = x -1=1-1=0 The fixed point is (x, y) (1,0) ( , )=(1,0) Now, + =1+0=1 .
