The equation of the normal to the curve $y=x^4-6 x^3+13 x^2-10 x+5$ at $x=1$ is :
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
$y=x^4-6 x^3+13 x^2-10 x+5$
at x = 1
$y=1-6+13-10+5=3$
point of intersection (1, 3)
$\frac{dy}{dx}=4x^3-18x^2+26x-10$
so $\left.\frac{dy}{dx}\right]_{x=1}=4-18+26-10=2$
so slope of normal = $\frac{-1}{2}$
equation → $(y-3)=\frac{-1}{2}(x-1)$
so $2y+x-7=0$
