Solution

The correct option is A

7


Explanation for the correct option.

Finding the value of 9 (b+c) :

Given that,

01P (x)dx=1

So,

01x2+bx+cdx=1 [Given Px=x2+bx+c] 13+b2+c=1 b2+c=23 3b+6c=4 ...1

Now, given that P2=5

P2=522+2b+c=5 4+2b+c=5 2b+c=1 ...2

Now from the equation 1 and 2 we get,

b=29 and c=59

Now substituting these values in 9 (b+c) we get,

9 (b+c)=929+59=979=7

Therefore, the correct answer is option (A).
