Options
- A-39
- B39
- C( 1 39 )
- D( -1 39 )
Correct answer
A. -39
Step-by-step solution
( ( x 31 )^n+ ( y 1209 )^n=2 ) On differentiating ( aligned & n x^ n-1 31^n + n y^ n-1 1209^n d y d x =0 & d y d x =- ( n x^ n-1 1209^n n y^ n-1 31^n ) & d y d x =- ( x y )^ n-1 (39^n ) aligned ) Slope of tangent at ((31,1209) ) (=- ( 1 39 )^ n-1 (39)^n=-39 )
