The slope of the normal to the curve y = x21x2 at (- 1, 0) is

  • 14

  • - 14

  • 4

  • - 4


A.

14

Given curve is y = x21x2

On differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get

     dydx = 2x + 2x3

At point (- 1, 0),

   dydx = 2- 1 + 2- 13 = - 4

 Slope of normal to the curve          = - 1dydx          = - 1- 4 = 14
