A straight line parallel to the line 2x - y + 5 = 0 is also a tangent to the curve y2 = 4x + 5. Then, the point of contact is
(2, 1)
(- 1, 1)
(1, 3)
(3, 4)
The radius of a cylinder is increasing at the rate of 5 cm/min so that its volume is constant. When its radius is 5 cm and height is 3 cm, then the rate of decreasing of its height is
6 cm/min
3 cm/min
4 cm/min
5 cm/min
The chord joining the points (5, 5) and (11, 227) on the curve y = 3x2 - 11x - 15 is parallel to tangent at a point on the curve. Then, the abscissa of the point is

Let the required point be P (x1 , y1). The equation of the given curve is,
y = 3x2 - 11x - 15
Since, the tangent at P is parallel to the line joining (5, 5) and (11, 227).
Slope of the tangent at P = Slope of the line joining (5, 5) and (11, 227).
The function f(x) = sin(x) - kx - c, where k and c are constants, decreases always when
k > 1
k < 1
If y = mlog(x) + nx2 + x has its extreme values at x = 2 and x = 1, then 2m + 10n is equal to
- 1
- 4
- 2
