Q18 / 51 · JEE Advanced 2023 (Paper 2) · Mathematics

Let f:[1.∞)→ℝ be a differentiable function such that f1=13 and 3∫1xftdt=xfx-x33,x∈[1,∞). Let e denote the base of the natural logarithm. Then the value of fe is

  • A
    e2+43
  • B
    loge4+e3
  • Correct answer
    C
    4e23
  • D
    e2-43.

Solution

Given,

3∫1xftdt=xfx-x33

Now differentiating both side we get,

⇒3fx=fx+xf'x−x2

⇒xf'x−2fx=x2

⇒f'x−2xfx=x

Which is a linear differential equation,

⇒I.F.=e−2xdx=1x2

Now solution is given by,

⇒y1x2=∫x×1x2dx=ln⁡x+C

⇒y=x2(ln⁡x+C)

⇒fx=x2(lnx+C)

Now using given value, f1=13 we get,

⇒0+C=13⇒C=13

So, fx=x2lnx+C

⇒fe=e2lne+13

⇒fe=4e23

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
