    14(eπ/2−1)\frac{1}{4}\left(\mathrm{e}^{\pi / 2}-1\right)

  2. Option B:

    12(1−eπ/2)\frac{1}{2}\left(1-\mathrm{e}^{\pi / 2}\right)

    Correct
  3. Option C:

    14(1−eπ/2)\frac{1}{4}\left(1-\mathrm{e}^{\pi / 2}\right)

  4. Option D:

    12(eπ/2−1)\frac{1}{2}\left(\mathrm{e}^{\pi / 2}-1\right)

Answer: B

Step-by-step solution

dydx+y1+x2=etan⁡−1x1+x2\frac{d y}{d x}+\frac{y}{1+x^{2}}=\frac{e^{\tan ^{-1} x}}{1+x^{2}}

I.F. =e∫11+x2dx=etan⁡−1x=\mathrm{e}^{\int \frac{1}{1+\mathrm{x}^{2}} \mathrm{dx}}=\mathrm{e}^{\tan ^{-1} \mathrm{x}}

y⋅etan⁡−1x=∫(etan⁡−1x1+x2)etan⁡−1x⋅dxy \cdot e^{\tan ^{-1} x}=\int\left(\frac{e^{\tan ^{-1} x}}{1+x^{2}}\right) e^{\tan ^{-1} x} \cdot d x

Let tan⁡−1x=z∴dx1+x2=dz\tan ^{-1} \mathrm{x}=\mathrm{z} \quad \therefore \frac{\mathrm{dx}}{1+\mathrm{x}^{2}}=\mathrm{dz}

∴y.ez=∫e2zdz=e2z2+C\therefore y . e^{z}=\int e^{2 z} d z=\frac{e^{2 z}}{2}+C

y⋅etan⁡−1x=e2tan⁡−1x2+Cy \cdot e^{\tan ^{-1} x}=\frac{e^{2 \tan ^{-1} x}}{2}+C

⇒y=etan⁡−1x2+Cetan⁡−1x\Rightarrow y=\frac{e^{\tan ^{-1} x}}{2}+\frac{C}{e^{\tan ^{-1} x}}

∵y(1)=0⇒0=eπ/42+Ceπ/4⇒C=−eπ/22\because y(1)=0 \Rightarrow 0=\frac{\mathrm{e}^{\pi / 4}}{2}+\frac{\mathrm{C}}{\mathrm{e}^{\pi / 4}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{C}=\frac{-\mathrm{e}^{\pi / 2}}{2}

∴y=etan⁡−1x2−eπ/22etan⁡−1x\therefore y=\frac{e^{\tan ^{-1} x}}{2}-\frac{e^{\pi / 2}}{2 e^{\tan ^{-1} x}}

∴y(0)=1−eπ/22\therefore \mathrm{y}(0)=\frac{1-\mathrm{e}^{\pi / 2}}{2}
