Q110 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2022 (20 Jul Shift 2) · Mathematics

The equation of the tangent to the curve $x^2+y-7=4 x$ at the point $(1,10)$ is

  • Correct answer
    A
    y = 2x + 8
  • B
    y = x + 8
  • C
    y = –2x – 14
  • D
    y = x – 4

Solution

Given curve is $x^2+y-7=4 x$ now tangent at $(1,10)$ is $\begin{aligned} & 1 \mathrm{x}+\left(\frac{\mathrm{y}+10}{2}\right)-7-4\left(\frac{\mathrm{x}+1}{2}\right)=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \mathrm{y}=2 \mathrm{x}+8 \end{aligned}$

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