MCQ
If $\int_0^1 {{e^{{x^2}}}(x - \alpha )\,dx = 0,} $ then
  • A
    $1 < \alpha < 2$
  • B
    $\alpha < 0$
  • $0 < \alpha < 1$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$0 < \alpha < 1$
c
(c) $\int_0^1 {{e^{{x^2}}}} (x - \alpha )\,dx = 0$

==> $\frac{1}{2}\int_0^1 {2x.{e^{{x^2}}}dx = \alpha \int_0^1 {{e^{{x^2}}}dx} } $

==> $\frac{1}{2}|{e^{{x^2}}}|_0^1 = \alpha \int_0^1 {{e^{{x^2}}}dx} $

==> $\frac{1}{2}(e - 1) = \alpha \,\int_0^1 {{e^{{x^2}}}dx} $

==> $\alpha = \frac{{\frac{1}{2}(e - 1)}}{{\int_0^1 {{e^{{x^2}}}dx} }} > 0$ and $\alpha < 1$.

So, $0 < \alpha < 1$.
