If (9a, 6a) is a point bounded in the region formed by parabola y 2 = 16x and x = 9, then
A
a 
(0,1)
(0,1)
B
a< 
C
a < 1
D
0 < a < 4
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
a 
(0,l)
Since, the point (9a, 6a) is bounded in the region formed by the parabola y 2 = 16 and x = 9, then
y 2 - 16x < 0, x - 9 < 0
36a 2 - 16 (9a) < 0, 9a - 9 < 0
36a (a - 4) < 0, 9a - 9 < 0
0<a<4, a<1 
0<a<l
