If y=y(x) is the solution curve of the differential equation (x2−4)dy−(y2−3y)dx=0, x>2,y(4)=23 and the slope of the curve is never zero, then the value of y(10) equals :
A
Option A:
1+(8)1/43
Correct
B
Option B:
1+223
C
Option C:
1−223
D
Option D:
1−(8)1/43
Answer: A
Step-by-step solution
(x2−4)dy−(y2−3y)dx=0
⇒∫y2−3ydy=∫x2−4dx
⇒31∫y(y−3)y−(y−3)dy=∫x2−4dx
⇒31(ln∣y−3∣−ln∣y∣)=41lnx+2x−2+C
⇒31lnyy−3=41lnx+2x−2+C
At x=4,y=23
∴C=41ln3
∴31lnyy−3=41lnx+2x−2+41ln(3)
At x=1031lnyy−3=41ln32+41ln(3)
lnyy−3=ln23/4,∀x>2,dxdy<0
as y(4)=23⇒y∈(0,3)
−y+3=81/4⋅y
y=1+81/43
