Solution
Given,
f(x)=32∫03f(3λ2x)dλ
Now let 3λ2x=t
⇒32λxdλ=dt
⇒dλ=23⋅x⋅3t1xdt
⇒dλ=23⋅x1⋅tdt
So, f(x)=x1∫0xtf(t)dt
xf(x)=∫0xtf(t)dt
Now differentiating both side we get,
⇒x⋅f′(x)+2xf(x)=xf(x)
⇒x⋅f′(x)=2xf(x)
⇒ydy=2xdx
Now integrating both side we get,
⇒∫ydy=∫2xdx
⇒lny=21lnx+lnc
Given f(1)=3, so ⇒ln3=0+lnc
⇒c=3
So, f(x)=3x
Now given f(x) is passing through (α,6),
So f(α)=6⇒36=3α
⇒α=12
