  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    The equation of normal of $$x^2+y^2-2x+4y-5=0$$ at $$(2,\,1)$$ is
    Solution
    Given equation is $$x^2+y^2-2x+4y-5=0$$
    On differentiating, we get
    $$2x+2y\dfrac{dy}{dx}-2+4\dfrac{dy}{dx}=0$$
    $$\Rightarrow\;(y+2)\dfrac{dy}{dx}=1-x$$
    $$\Rightarrow\,\begin{pmatrix}\dfrac{dy}{dx}\end{pmatrix}_{(2,\,1)}=\dfrac{1-2}{1+2}=\dfrac{-1}{3}$$
    $$\Rightarrow\,-\begin{pmatrix}\dfrac{dx}{dy}\end{pmatrix}_{(2,\,1)}=3$$
    Now, equation of normal is
    $$(y-1)=3(x-2)$$
    $$y-1=3x-6$$
    $$\Rightarrow\;y=3x-5$$
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    The coordinates of the point P on the curve $$x = a(\theta + \sin \theta), y = a(1 - \cos \theta)$$ where the tangent is inclined at an angle $$\dfrac {\pi}{4}$$ to the x-axis, are
    Solution
    $$x = a(\theta + \sin \theta), y = a(1 - \cos \theta)$$
    $$\dfrac {dy}{d\theta} = a\sin \theta, \dfrac {dx}{d\theta} = a(1 + \cos \theta)$$
    $$\dfrac {dy}{dx} = \dfrac {\sin \theta}{1 + \cos \theta} = \tan \dfrac {\theta}{2}$$
    $$\Rightarrow \tan \dfrac {\theta}{2} = 1$$
    $$\Rightarrow \dfrac {\theta}{2} = \dfrac {\pi}{4} \Rightarrow \theta = \dfrac {\pi}{2}$$
    $$x = a(\theta + \sin \theta)$$
    $$y = a(1 - \cos \theta)$$
    $$x = a (\theta + \sin \theta)$$
    $$y = a(1 - \cos \theta)$$
    $$(x, y) \equiv \left (a \left (\dfrac {\pi}{2} + 1\right ), a\right )$$.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    The slope of the tangent to the curve $$x=3t^2+1, y=t^3-1$$ at $$x=1$$ is 
    Solution
    Given, $$x=3t^2+1, y=t^3-1$$
    Slope of the tangent to the given curve is $$\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{dy}{dt} \times \dfrac{dt}{dx}$$
    $$= 3t^2 \times \dfrac{1}{6t}$$
    $$=\dfrac{t}{2}$$
    Since the slope has to be calculated at $$x = 1, $$ i.e. at $$3t^2 + 1 = 1$$, we get $$t = 0$$
    Thus, the required slope is $$0.$$
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    The function $$f(x)=\frac{x}{3}+\frac{3}{x}$$ decreaes in the interval.
    Solution
    We have $$f(x)=\dfrac{x}{3}+\dfrac{3}{x}$$, Domain is $$R-\{0\}$$
    Differentiate it,
    $$f'(x)=\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{3}{x^2}$$
    Now for f to be decreasing $$f'(x)<0$$
    $$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{3}{x^2}<0$$
    $$\Rightarrow \dfrac{x^2-9}{3x^2}<0$$
    $$\Rightarrow x^2-9<0$$, since $$3x^2>0\forall x\in $$ Domain
    $$\Rightarrow (x+3)(x-3)<0$$
    $$\Rightarrow x\in (-3,3)-\{0\}$$, since $$0$$ is not in the domain 
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Find the equation of the quadratic function $$f$$ whose graph increases over the interval $$(-\infty, -2)$$ and decreases over the interval $$(-2,+\infty)$$, $$f(0)=23$$ and $$f(1)=8$$
    Solution
    Let the quadratic equation be $$f(x)=ax^{2}+bx+c$$
    Given $$f(0)=23$$ 
    Put $$x=0$$ in $$f(x)$$ we get $$c=23$$
    Given $$f(1)=8$$ 
    Put $$x=1$$ in $$f(x)$$, we get
    $$a+b+23=8$$ 
     
    $$a+b=-15$$     ......(i)  
    Now we can see from the interval that maximum value of quadratic equation is at $$x=-2$$
    So $$f'(x)=0$$ at $$x=-2$$
    $$f'(x)=2ax+b$$
    Put $$x=-2$$, we get
    $$2a(-2)+b=0$$
    $$b=4a$$
    Put it in equation (i), we get
    $$a+4a=-15$$
    $$a=-3$$
    So $$b=4a=4(-3)=-12$$
    So quadratic equation is
    $$=-3x^{2}-12x+23$$ 
    $$=-3(x^2+4x+4-4)+23$$
    $$=-3((x+2)^2-4)+23$$
    $$=-3(x+2)^2+12+23$$
    $$=-3(x+2)^2+35$$

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    The focal length of a mirror is given by $$\displaystyle \frac{2}{f}\, =\, \displaystyle \frac{1}{v}\, -\, \displaystyle \frac{1}{u}$$. In finding the values of u and v, the errors are equal and equal to 'p'. The the relative error in f is
    Solution
    $$\dfrac{2}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}$$
    $$-2\dfrac{\Delta f}{f^2}=\dfrac{-\Delta V}{v^2}+\dfrac{\Delta u}{u^2}$$
    $$\Rightarrow \dfrac{2\Delta f}{f^2}=\dfrac{\Delta v}{v^2}-\dfrac{\Delta v}{u^2}$$
    $$\Rightarrow \dfrac{\Delta f}{f}=\dfrac{f P}{2}[\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}][\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}]$$
    $$\dfrac{\Delta f}{f}=\dfrac{f p}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{f}[\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}]$$
    $$\dfrac{\Delta f}{f} = p[\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}]$$
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Suppose that $$f$$ is a polynomial of degree $$3$$ and that $$f''(x)\neq 0$$ at any of the stationary point. Then
    Solution
    The given information is a polynomial of degree $$3$$.

    Let the function be $$f(x)=ax^3 +bx^2 + cx +d$$.

    To find the stationary points we differentiate and equate it to zero. 

    $$f'(x) = 3ax^2 + 2bx + x$$

    The differentiated function is a quadratic equation which will give two real or two complex roots. If we get two real roots then we will have exactly $$2$$ stationary points. Now if the roots are complex as they always occur in pair then we have no stationary points. Thus f has exactly $$0$$ or $$2$$ stationary points.        .....Answer
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Let $$f:R\rightarrow R$$ be a differentiable function for all values of $$x$$ and has the peoperty that $$f(x)$$ and $$f'(x)$$ have opposite signs for all values of $$x$$. Then,
    Solution
    Given $$f(x) $$  and  $$f^{'} (x) $$ have opposite signs

    $$\Rightarrow f(x) f^{'} (x) <0$$

    We cannot say f(x) is increasing or decreasing because we don't know the sign of f(x) 

    Let us take option C;

    If $$f^{2}(x)$$ is increasing $$\Rightarrow \dfrac {d} {dx} (f^{2}(x))>0$$

    $$\Rightarrow 2f(x)f^{'}(x)>0$$

    $$\Rightarrow f(x) f^{'} (x) >0$$   which is the given condition 

    $$\therefore $$option C is correct 
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    The function $$f(x) = x^2$$ is decreasing in
    Solution
    $$f(x)=x^{2}$$,
    $$f'(x)=2x$$.
    $$f'(x)>0$$ implies $$2x>0$$ or $$x>0$$. Hence $$f(x)$$ is increasing in the interval of $$(0,\infty)$$ and decreasing in the interval $$(-\infty,0)$$.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Identify the correct statements
    (a) Every constant function is an increasing function.
    (b) Every constant function is a decreasing function.
    (c) Every identify function is an increasing function.
    (d) Every identify function is a decreasing function.
    Solution
    Increasing function means $$f'\left( x \right) \ge 0$$ and decreasing function means $$f'\left( x \right) \le 0$$
    For constant function , derivative will be zero. 
    Therefore constant function is both increasing and decreasing.
    Identity function means $$f(x)=x$$ , its derivative is always $$1 \ge 0$$
    Therefore identity function is increasing function
    So $$a,b,c$$ are correct
    Therefore the correct option is $$A$$
