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
