Solution

The curves y = 4x2 + 2x – 8 and y = x3 – x + 13 touch each other at the point `(- 1/3, (-74)/9)`.

Explanation:

We have y = 4x2 + 2x – 8   .....(i)

And y = x3 – x + 13    .....(ii)

Differentiating eq. (i) w.r.t. x, we have

`"dy"/'dx"` = 8x + 2

⇒ m1 = 8x + 2  .....[m is the slope of curve (i)]

Differentiating eq. (ii) w.r.t. x, we get

`"dy"/"dx"` = 3x2 – 1

⇒ m2 = 3x2 – 1  ......[m2 is the slope of curve (ii)]

If the two curves touch each other, then m1 = m2

∴ 8x + 2 = 3x2 – 1

⇒ 3x2 – 8x – 3 = 0

⇒ 3x2 – 9x + x – 3 = 0

⇒ 3x(x – 3) + 1(x – 3) = 0

⇒ (x – 3)(3x + 1) = 0

∴ x = 3, `(-1)/3`

Putting x = 3 in equation (i), we get

y = 4(3)2 + 2(3) – 8

= 36 + 6 – 8

= 34

So, the required point is (3, 34)

Now for x = `- 1/3`

y = `4((-1)/3)^2 + 2((-1)/3) - 8`

= `4 xx 1/9 - 2/3 - 8`

= `4/9 - 2/3 - 8`

= `(4 - 6 - 72)/9`

= `(-74)/9`

∴ Other required point is `(- 1/3, (-74)/9)`.
