JEE Advanced 2014 · Paper 2, Mathematics question 44

Let f:[0,2]→Rf:[0,2]\to\mathbb R be a function which is continuous on [0,2][0,2] and is differentiable on (0,2)(0,2) with f(0)=1f(0)=1. Let
F(x)=∫0x2f(t) dtF(x)=\int_0^{x^2}f(\sqrt t)\,dt
for x∈[0,2]x\in[0,2]. If F′(x)=f′(x)F'(x)=f'(x) for all x∈(0,2)x\in(0,2), then F(2)F(2) equals

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: B

Differentiate FF. F′(x)=f(x2)⋅2x=2xf(x)F'(x)=f(\sqrt{x^2})\cdot2x=2xf(x) for x≥0x\ge0.

The condition F′=f′F'=f' gives f′(x)=2xf(x)f'(x)=2xf(x), so f(x)=Cex2f(x)=Ce^{x^2}, and f(0)=1f(0)=1 gives f(x)=ex2f(x)=e^{x^2}.

Evaluate.
F(2)=∫04f(t) dt=∫04et dt=e4−1.F(2)=\int_0^4f(\sqrt t)\,dt=\int_0^4e^t\,dt=e^4-1.
