x and y are the sides of two squares such that y=x−x2. The rate of change of area of the second square with respect to that of the first square is

The correct option is C 2x2−3x+1Let A=x2 and B=y2=(x−x2)2 ∴dBdxdAdx=2(x−x2)(1−2x)2x=(1−x)(1−2x)=2x2−3x+1.

x and y are the sides of two squares such that $y = x - x^{2}$ . The rate of change of area of the second square with respect to that of the first square is

The correct option is C $2 x^{2} - 3 x + 1$
Let $A = x^{2}$ and $B = y^{2} = (x - x^{2})^{2}$
$∴ \frac{\frac{d B}{d x}}{\frac{d A}{d x}} = \frac{2 (x - x^{2}) (1 - 2 x)}{2 x} = (1 - x) (1 - 2 x) = 2 x^{2} - 3 x + 1$ .
