A car is moving along the curve \(y=x^3+12\). The point(s) on the curve at which the rate of change of its y-coordiante at a certain time is 3 times the rate of change of its x-coordinate is/are

  1. A (1, 13) only
  2. B (-1, 12) only
  3. C (1, 13) and (-1,11)
  4. D (-1, 13) only
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) (1, 13) and (-1,11)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{dy}{dt} = 3x^2 \frac{dx}{dt}\) \(3 \frac{dx}{dt} = 3x^2 \frac{dx}{dt}\) \(3 = 3x^2 \Rightarrow x^2 = 1 \Rightarrow x = \pm 1\) For \(x = 1\): \(y = (1)^3 + 12 = 13\). Point: \((1, 13)\) For \(x = -1\): \(y = (-1)^3 + 12 = 11\). Point: \((-1, 11)\)
