Continuity and Differentiability

Question:

The value of k for which $k\frac{dy}{dx}=\sqrt{x}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}},$ where $y=\sqrt{x}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}};$ is :

Options:

$2x$

2

$x$

$\sqrt{x}$

Correct Answer:

$2x$

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → $2x$

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}-\frac{1}{2x\sqrt{x}}$

so $2x\frac{dy}{dx}=\sqrt{x}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}$

on comparison $k=2x$
