Vedclass · Answer

(D) Given $y = a \log x + bx^2 + x$. Taking the derivative with respect to $x$: $\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{a}{x} + 2bx + 1$. Since the function has extreme values at $x = 1$ and $x = 2$,the derivative must be zero at these points. For $x = 1$: $\frac{a}{1} + 2b(1) + 1 = 0 \implies a + 2b = -1$. For $x = 2$: $\frac{a}{2} + 2b(2) + 1 = 0 \implies \frac{a}{2} + 4b = -1 \implies a + 8b = -2$. Subtracting the first equation from the second: $(a + 8b) - (a + 2b) = -2 - (-1) \implies 6b = -1 \implies b = -\frac{1}{6}$. Substituting $b = -\frac{1}{6}$ into $a + 2b = -1$: $a + 2(-\frac{1}{6}) = -1 \implies a - \frac{1}{3} = -1 \implies a = -1 + \frac{1}{3} = -\frac{2}{3}$. Thus,$(a, b) = \left( -\frac{2}{3}, -\frac{1}{6} \right)$.

If $y = a \log x + bx^2 + x$ has extreme values at $x = 1$ and $x = 2$,then $(a, b) = \dots$
