The Correct Option is A

Approach Solution - 1

To solve the given differential equation and find the line on which the vertex of the resulting conic lies, let's start by simplifying and solving the given differential equation:

The differential equation provided is: \(2y \frac{dy}{dx} + 3 = 5 \frac{dy}{dx}\)

Rearrange the terms to separate the variables:

\(2y \frac{dy}{dx} - 5 \frac{dy}{dx} = -3\)

Factor out \(\frac{dy}{dx}\):

\(\left( 2y - 5 \right) \frac{dy}{dx} = -3\)

Solve for \(\frac{dy}{dx}\):

\(\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-3}{2y - 5}\)

This is a separable differential equation. To solve this, separate the variables:

\((2y - 5) \, dy = -3 \, dx\)

Integrate both sides:

\(\int (2y - 5) \, dy = -\int 3 \, dx\)

This gives:

\(y^2 - 5y = -3x + C\)

Rearrange to get the equation of the conic:

\(y^2 - 5y + 3x = C\)

Use the initial condition that the curve passes through the point \((0, 1)\) to find the constant:

Substitute \((x, y) = (0, 1)\) in the equation:

\(1^2 - 5 \times 1 + 3 \times 0 = C\)

Calculate:

\(1 - 5 = C \Rightarrow C = -4\)

Thus, the equation of the conic becomes:

\(y^2 - 5y + 3x = -4\)

This is the equation of a conic. To find the vertex, consider completing the square for the equation in terms of \(y\):

\(y^2 - 5y = -(3x + 4)\)

Complete the square for the \(y\) terms:

\(y^2 - 5y + \left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^2 = \left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^2 - (3x + 4)\)

Which simplifies to:

\(\left(y - \frac{5}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{25}{4} - 3x - 4\)

Further simplify:

\(\left(y - \frac{5}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{9}{4} - 3x\)

The vertex of this conic section is at \((x, y) = (h, \frac{5}{2})\). For the equation to be zero at the vertex:

\(\frac{9}{4} = 3h\)

Solve for \(h\):

\(h = \frac{3}{4}\)

Thus, the vertex lies on the line \(y = \frac{5}{2}\).

Plug known values into the equation of the line to cross-check:

  1. \(2x + 3y = 9\) is tested for \((x, y) = \left(\frac{3}{4}, \frac{5}{2}\right)

Substitute \(x = \frac{3}{4}, y = \frac{5}{2}\):

\(2 \times \frac{3}{4} + 3 \times \frac{5}{2} = 9\)

Calculate:

\(\frac{3}{2} + \frac{15}{2} = 9\)

\(9 = 9\)

Thus, the correct line on which the vertex lies is \(2x + 3y = 9\).

Approach Solution -2

Solution:

\((2y - 5)\frac{dy}{dx} = -3\) 

\((2y - 5)dy = -3dx\) 

\(2\cdot\frac{y^2}{2} - 5y = -3x + \lambda\) 

Given: Curve passes through \((0, 1)\)

\(\implies \lambda = -4\) 

Curve Equation: 

\(\left(\frac{y - 5}{2}\right)^2 = -3\left(x - \frac{3}{4}\right)\) 

Vertex of the Parabola: 

\(\left(\frac{3}{4}, \frac{5}{2}\right)\) 

Final Equation:  \(2x + 3y = 9\)
