If the curves \(y^2=6 x\) and \(9 x^2+\) by \(^2=16\) intersect each other at right angles, then the value of b is

  1. A \(4\)
  2. B \(\frac{7}{2}\)
  3. C \(6\)
  4. D \(\frac{9}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\frac{9}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(y^2=6x \implies 2y\frac{dy}{dx} = 6 \implies m_1 = \frac{3}{y}\) \(9x^2+by^2=16 \implies 18x+2by\frac{dy}{dx}=0 \implies m_2 = -\frac{9x}{by}\)
