JEE Main 2024 — 27 January, Shift 2 — Question 17

If y=y(x)y=y(x) is the solution curve of the differential equation (x2−4)dy−(y2−3y)dx=0\left(x^{2}-4\right) d y-\left(y^{2}-3 y\right) d x=0, x>2,y(4)=32x>2, y(4)=\frac{3}{2} and the slope of the curve is never zero, then the value of y(10)y(10) equals :

  1. Option A:

    31+(8)1/4\frac{3}{1+(8)^{1 / 4}}

    Correct
  2. Option B:

    31+22\frac{3}{1+2 \sqrt{2}}

  3. Option C:

    31−22\frac{3}{1-2 \sqrt{2}}

  4. Option D:

    31−(8)1/4\frac{3}{1-(8)^{1 / 4}}

Answer: A

Step-by-step solution

(x2−4)dy−(y2−3y)dx=0\left(x^{2}-4\right) d y-\left(y^{2}-3 y\right) d x=0

⇒∫dyy2−3y=∫dxx2−4\Rightarrow \int \frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{y}^{2}-3 y}=\int \frac{\mathrm{dx}}{\mathrm{x}^{2}-4}

⇒13∫y−(y−3)y(y−3)dy=∫dxx2−4\Rightarrow \frac{1}{3} \int \frac{y-(y-3)}{y(y-3)} d y=\int \frac{d x}{x^{2}-4}

⇒13(ln⁡∣y−3∣−ln⁡∣y∣)=14ln⁡∣x−2x+2∣+C\Rightarrow \frac{1}{3}(\ln |y-3|-\ln |y|)=\frac{1}{4} \ln \left|\frac{x-2}{x+2}\right|+C

⇒13ln⁡∣y−3y∣=14ln⁡∣x−2x+2∣+C\Rightarrow \frac{1}{3} \ln \left|\frac{\mathrm{y}-3}{\mathrm{y}}\right|=\frac{1}{4} \ln \left|\frac{\mathrm{x}-2}{\mathrm{x}+2}\right|+\mathrm{C}

At x=4,y=32x=4, y=\frac{3}{2}

∴C=14ln⁡3\therefore \mathrm{C}=\frac{1}{4} \ln 3

∴13ln⁡∣y−3y∣=14ln⁡∣x−2x+2∣+14ln⁡(3)\therefore \frac{1}{3} \ln \left|\frac{y-3}{y}\right|=\frac{1}{4} \ln \left|\frac{x-2}{x+2}\right|+\frac{1}{4} \ln (3)

At x=10x=10 13ln⁡∣y−3y∣=14ln⁡∣23∣+14ln⁡(3)\frac{1}{3} \ln \left|\frac{\mathrm{y}-3}{\mathrm{y}}\right|=\frac{1}{4} \ln \left|\frac{2}{3}\right|+\frac{1}{4} \ln (3)

ln⁡∣y−3y∣=ln⁡23/4,∀x>2,dydx<0\ln \left|\frac{\mathrm{y}-3}{\mathrm{y}}\right|=\ln 2^{3 / 4}, \forall \mathrm{x}>2, \frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{dx}}<0

as y(4)=32⇒y∈(0,3)y(4)=\frac{3}{2} \Rightarrow y \in(0,3)

−y+3=81/4⋅y-y+3=8^{1 / 4} \cdot \mathrm{y}

y=31+81/4y=\frac{3}{1+8^{1 / 4}}
