Find the value of x, if the expression (2x−4)+yα(x−2)+2y is independent as y.
2
When x=2, the expression becomes α2, independent of y.
Another way of doing it is,
Let Z=(2x−4)+yα(x−2)+2y
Find dzdy and equate it to zero [We will learn it in XII th] i.e., dzdy = 0
and find the value of x. Both the ways we get the same value
