  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    A fair coin is tossed independently four times. The probability of the event "the number of times heads show up is more than the number of times tails show up" is:

    Solution

    Sample space contains \(2^{4}=16\) elements.

    The favorable events are:

    \(\{ H , H , H , T \},\{ H , H , T , H \},\{ H , T , H , H \},\{ T , H , H , H \},\{ H , H , H , H \}\)

    There are 5 possibilities,

    \(\therefore\) The required probability is \(\frac{5}{16}\).

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    \(\left(\begin{array}{ll}2 & 3 \\ 4 & 1\end{array}\right) \times\left(\begin{array}{cc}5 & -2 \\ -3 & 1\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{cc}1 & -1 \\ 17 & \lambda\end{array}\right)\)  then what is λ equal to?

    Solution

    Given:

    \(\left(\begin{array}{ll}2 & 3 \\ 4 & 1\end{array}\right) \times\left(\begin{array}{cc}5 & -2 \\ -3 & 1\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{cc}1 & -1 \\ 17 & \lambda\end{array}\right)\)

    \(\mathrm{A}\) is in \(2\)nd row and \(2\)nd column, so, it will get by sum of multiplication of \(2\)nd row of first matrix and \(2\)nd column of the second matrix

    \(\therefore \lambda=4(-2)+1(1)\)

    \(=-8+1=-7\)

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    The area in the first quadrant bounded by,

    \(y=4 x^{2}, x=0, y=1\) and \(y=4\) is:

    Solution

     \(y=4 x^{2}, x=0\),

    \(y=1\) and \(y=4\)

    The curve can be drawn as:

    Now, \(y=4 x^{2}\)

    \( \Rightarrow x^{2}=\frac{y}{4}\)

    \( \Rightarrow x=\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{y}\)

    Required area \(=\int_{1}^{4} x d y\)

    \(=\frac{1}{2} \int_{1}^{4} \sqrt{y} d y\)

    \(=\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{y^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{3}{2}}\right]_{1}^{4}\)

    \(=\frac{1}{3}\left[y^{\frac{3}{2}}\right]_{1}^{4}\)

    \(=\frac{1}{3}\left[4^{\frac{3}{2}}-1^{\frac{3}{2}}\right]\)

    \(=\frac{1}{3}[8-1]\) \(=\frac{7}{3} \) sq. unit

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    If \(y=\frac{12 \tan x-4 \tan ^{3} x}{9-27 \tan ^{2} x}\), then find \(\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}\).

    Solution

    Given: 

    \(y=\frac{12 \tan x-4 \tan ^{3} x}{9-27 \tan ^{2} x}\)  

    \(\Rightarrow y=\frac{4\left(3 \tan x-\tan ^{3} x\right)}{9\left(1-3 \tan ^{2} x\right)}\)

    We know that, 

    \(\tan 3 x=\frac{3 \tan x-\tan ^{3} x}{1-3 \tan ^{2} x}\)

    \(\Rightarrow y=\frac{4}{9} \tan 3 x\)

    Differentiating both sides with respect to \(x\), we get:

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{4}{9} \sec ^{2} 3 x \times 3\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{4}{3} \sec ^{2} 3 x\)

    Again, differentiating with respect to \(x\), we get:

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}=\frac{4}{3} \times 2 \times \sec 3 x \times \tan 3 x \times \sec 3 x \times 3\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}}=8 \sec ^{2} 3 x \tan 3 x\)

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    Find the middle terms in the expansion of \(\left(2 \mathrm{x}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{x}}\right)^{8}\).

    Solution

    Given the exprission is \(\left(2 \mathrm{x}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{x}}\right)^{8}\).

    Here \(n=8(\mathrm{n}\) is even number)

    \(\therefore\) Middle term \(=\left(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}+1\right)=\left(\frac{8}{2}+1\right)=5\) th term

    General term in the expansion of \((x+y)^{n}\) is given by

    \(\mathrm{T}_{(\mathrm{r}+1)}={ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}} \times \mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{n}-\mathrm{r}} \times \mathrm{y}^{\mathrm{r}}\)

    \(\Rightarrow T_{5}=T_{(4+1)}={ }^{8} \mathrm{C}_{4} \times(2 \mathrm{x})^{(8-4) \times}\left(\frac{1}{\mathrm{x}}\right)^{4}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{~T}_{5}={ }^{8} \mathrm{C}_{4} \times 2^{4}\)

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    Two cards are drawn at random and without replacement from a pack of \(52\) playing cards. Find the probability that both the cards are black:

    Solution

    Given:

    A pack of \(52\) cards.

    As we know there are \(26\) cards in total which are black. Let A and B denote respectively the events that the first and second drawn cards are black.

    Now, \(P(A)=P(\) black card in first draw \()=\frac{26}{52}=\frac{1}{2}\)

    Because the second card is drawn without replacement so, now the total number of black cards will be \(25\) and the total cards will be \(51\) that is the conditional probability of B given that A has already occurred.

    Now, \(P\left(\frac{B}{A}\right)=\mathrm{P}(\) black card in second \(\mathrm{draw})=\frac{25}{51}\)

    Thus the probability that both the cards are black.

    \(=P(A \cap B)=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{25}{51}=\frac{25}{102}\)

    Therefore, the probability that both the cards are black is \(\frac{25}{102}\).

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    Find the equation of the plane which is at a distance of \(\frac{1}{ 3}\) unit from the origin and \(\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+2 \hat{k}\) is the normal vector from the origin to the plane?

    Solution

    Vector equation of a plane whose perpendicular distance from the origin is \(d\) and \(\hat{n}\) is the unit normal vector to the plane through origin is given by \(\vec{r} . \hat{n}=d\)

    Now,

    Let \(\vec{n}=\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+2 \hat{k}\) is the normal to the required plane from the origin and it is at a distance of \(\frac{1}{3}\) units from the origin.

    \(\Rightarrow|\vec{n}|=|\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+2 \hat{k}|=\sqrt{1^2+2^2+2^2}=3 \text {. }\)

    So, the unit normal vector \(\hat{n}=\frac{1}{3} \hat{i}+\frac{2}{3} \hat{j}+\frac{2}{3} \hat{k}\)

    As we know that, the equation of a plane whose perpendicular distance from the origin is \(d\) and \(\hat{n}\) is the unit normal vector to the plane through origin is given by \(\vec{r} . \hat{n}=d\)

    Here, \(d =\frac{1 }{ 3}, \hat{n}=\frac{1}{3} \hat{i}+\frac{2}{3} \hat{j}+\frac{2}{3} \hat{k}\) and let \(\vec{r}=x \hat{i}+y \hat{j}+z \hat{k}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{1}{3} x+\frac{2}{3} y+\frac{2}{3} z=\frac{1}{3} \)

    \(\Rightarrow x +2 y +2 z =1 \)

    So, the equation of the required plane is \(x+2 y+2 z=1\)

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    If A={1, 2, 4}, B={2, 4, 5}, C={2, 5}, then (A-C)×(B-C) is equal to:

    Solution

    A = {1, 2, 4}, B = {2, 4, 5}, C={2, 5}

    ⇒ A − C = {1, 4}

    ⇒ B − C = {4}

    ⇒ (A − C) × (B − C) = {1, 4} × {4}

    = {1, 4}, {4, 4}

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    An equilateral triangle is inscribed in the parabola \(y^2=4 a x\), where one vertex is at the vertex of the parabola. Find the length of the side of the triangle.

    Solution

    Let OAB be the equilateral triangle inscribed in parabola \(y^2=4 a x\)

    Let AB intersect the x-axis at point C. Let OC = k

    From the equation of the given parabola, we have \(y^2=4 a k \Rightarrow y=\) \(\pm 2 \sqrt{a k}\)

    \(\therefore\) The respective coordinates of points A and B are \((k, 2 \sqrt{a k})\), and \((k,-2 \sqrt{a k})\)

    \(A B=C A+C B=2 \sqrt{a k}+2 \sqrt{a k}=4 \sqrt{a k}\)


    Let AB intersect the x-axis at point C.

    Let OC = k

    From the equation of the given parabola, we have \(y^2=4 a k \Rightarrow y=\) \(\pm 2 \sqrt{a k}\)

    \(\therefore\) The respective coordinates of points A and B are

    \((k, 2 \sqrt{a k})\), and \((k,-2 \sqrt{a k})\)

    AB = CA + CB = \(2 \sqrt{a k}+2 \sqrt{a k}=4 \sqrt{a k}\)

    since OAB is an equilateral triangle, \(O A^2=A B^2\)

    \(\therefore k^2+(2 \sqrt{a k})^2=(4 \sqrt{a k})^2\)

    \(\Rightarrow k^2+4 a k=16 a k\)

    \(\Rightarrow k^2=12 a k\)

    \(\Rightarrow k=12 a\)

    \(\therefore A B=4 \sqrt{a k}=4 \sqrt{a \times 12 a}=4 \sqrt{12 a^2}=8 \sqrt{3} a\)

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    The mean of six numbers is 47. If one number is excluded, their mean becomes 41. The excluded number is:

    Solution

    Let the six numbers be a, b, c, d, e, f

    So, Mean \(=\frac{\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}+\mathrm{d}+\mathrm{e}+\mathrm{f}}{6}=47\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}+\mathrm{d}+\mathrm{e}+\mathrm{f}=282\)     .....(i)

    Let, the excluded number be a,

    So, mean of remaining five numbers \(=\frac{\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}+\mathrm{d}+\mathrm{e}+\mathrm{f}}{5}=41\)

    \(\Rightarrow b+c+d+e+f=205\)     .....(ii)

    ∴ a + 205 = 282              (from (i) and (ii))

    ⇒ a = 77
