The gradient of a curve is 2x + 7 and the curve passes through point (2, 0). find the equation of the curve.

A
y = x2 + 7x + 9
B
y = x2 + 7x - 18
C
y = x2 + 7x + 18
D
y = x2 + 14x + 11

Correct Option: B

dy/dx = 2x + 7

y = ∫2x + 7

y = x2 + 7x + C at (2,0)

0 = 22 + 7(2) + C

0 = 4 + 14 + C

0 = 18 + C

C = -18

∴ The equation is y = x2 + 7x - 18
