Since, f(x) is dfferentiable, hence, use L'Hosptials Rule in the limit.
 
 
[ t][x ] t2.f(x)-x2.f(t)/t-x =1
Differentiating w.r.t t, we get
 
 
[t ][ x] 2t. f(x) -x2.f '(t) =1
 
Now apply the limit, and u'll get
 
2x.f(x) -x2.f '(x) =1
 
Now i'm writing f(x)=y, it'll be easier to mention.
 
Now,
2xy -x2.dy/dx =1
 
x2dy/dx -2xy =-1
 
dy/dx -2y/x = -1/x2
 
U can compare this with the form,
dy/dx +Py =Q
where integrating factor (I.F) can be found by
 
I.F= e^ P dx
 
Hence, for the above differential equation,
I.F = e^ (-2/x) dx
    = 1/x2
 
We know,
 
y(I.F.) = Q. (I.F.) dx
    
y(1/x2) = (-1/x2)*(1/x2) dx
 
Hence,
y (1/x2) = 1/3x3 +c
where c is the const. of integration.
 
y = 1/3x +cx2
 
Given that, for x=1, y=1
Hence,
1= 1/3(1) +c(1)
Therefore, c=2/3
 
Hence the function,
y=f(x) = 1/3x+2x2/3
 
Answer is (a)
 
Hope this helps!
Cheerrsss!!!
