  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    If 2sin2A + 3cos2A = 2, find the value of (tanA – cotA)2 where sinA > 0.

    Solution

    Given:

    2sin2A + 3cos2A = 2

    2sin2A + 3cos2A = 2

    ⇒ 2sin2A + 3(1 – sin2A) = 2

    ⇒ sin2A = 1

    ⇒ sinA = 1

    ⇒ A = 90°

    (tanA – cotA)2 = (tan90° - cot90°)2

    ⇒ (tanA – cotA)2 = (∞ - 0)2

    ⇒ (tanA – cotA)2 = ∞

    ∴ Value of (tanA – cotA)2 is ∞.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    If \(A=\left|\begin{array}{lll}2 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 2\end{array}\right|\) and \(B=\left|\begin{array}{lll}1 & 2 & 3 \\ 0 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 0 & 2\end{array}\right|\). Then the determinant \(A B\) has the value:

    Solution

    Given, \(\mathrm{A}=\left|\begin{array}{lll}2 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 2\end{array}\right|=2\left|\begin{array}{lll}1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right|=2 \mathrm{I}\) and \(\mathrm{B}\) is a square matrix given as,

    \(\mathrm{B}=\left|\begin{array}{lll}1 & 2 & 3 \\ 0 & 1 & 3 \\ 0 & 0 & 2\end{array}\right|\)

    So, applying the first concept we get, \(A \cdot B=21 . B \equiv\) Multiplying each term of \(B\) by \(2\).

    \(\therefore \mathrm{A} . \mathrm{B}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}2 & 4 & 6 \\ 0 & 2 & 6 \\ 0 & 0 & 4\end{array}\right|\)Now A.B is upper triangular matrix. So, applying the second concept we get,

    \(\operatorname{det}\{A \cdot B\}=\) product of diagonal terms of \(A \cdot B=2 \times 2 \times 4=16\)

  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    The function \(f(x)\) is defined as:
    \(f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{c}
    b x^{2}-a, \text { if } x<-1 \\
    a x^{2}-b x-2, \text { if } x \geq-1
    \end{array}\right.\)
    If \({f}^{\prime}({x})\) is differentiable everywhere, the equation whose roots are \({a}\) and \({b}\) is:
    Solution

    Since the given function is differentiable, we can write:

    \(\lim _{x \rightarrow-1^{-}} f^{\prime}(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow-1^{+}} f^{\prime}(x)\)

    \(\Rightarrow \lim _{x \rightarrow-1^{-}}(2 b x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow-1^{+}}(2 a x-b)\)

    \(\Rightarrow -2 b=-2 a-b\)

    \(\Rightarrow -b=-2 a\)

    \(\Rightarrow 2 a=b\quad....(i)\)

    Since \(f(x)\) will also be continuous, we can write:

    \(\lim _{x \rightarrow-1^{-}}\left(b x^{2}-a\right)=\lim _{x \rightarrow-1^{+}}\left(a x^{2}-b x-2\right)\)

    \(\Rightarrow {b}-{a}={a}+{b}-2\)

    \(\Rightarrow 2 {a}=2\)

    \(\Rightarrow {a}=1\)

    Using Equation \((i)\):

    \(2 a=b\)

    \(\Rightarrow 2 ×1=b\)

    \(\Rightarrow b=2\)

    These are the roots of the equation:

    \(x^{2}-3 x+2=0\)

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    If \(\mathrm{A}=\left(\begin{array}{cc}-2 & 2 \\ 2 & -2\end{array}\right)\), then which one of the following is correct?

    Solution

    Given: \(A=\left(\begin{array}{cc}-2 & 2 \\ 2 & -2\end{array}\right)\)

    \(A^{2}=\left(\begin{array}{cc}-2 & 2 \\ 2 & -2\end{array}\right) \times\left(\begin{array}{cc}-2 & 2 \\ 2 & -2\end{array}\right)\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{A}^{2}=\left(\begin{array}{ll}\{(-2) \times(-2)+2 \times 2\} & \{(-2) \times 2+2 \times(-2)\} \\ \{2 \times(-2)+(-2) \times 2\} & \{2 \times 2+(-2) \times(-2)\}\end{array}\right)\)

    \(\Rightarrow A^{2}=\left(\begin{array}{cc}8 & -8 \\ -8 & 8\end{array}\right)\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{A}^{2}=-4 \times\left(\begin{array}{cc}-2 & 2 \\ 2 & -2\end{array}\right)\)

    \(\Rightarrow A^{2}=-4 A\)

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    The problem of maximizing \(z=x_{1}-x_{2}\) subject to constraints \(x_{1}+x_{2} \leq 10, x_{1} \geq 0, x_{2} \geq\) 0 and \(x_{2} \leq 5\) has:

    Solution

    Maximizing \(z=x_{1}-x_{2}\)

    Constraints \(x_{1}+x_{2} \leq 10\)

    \(x_{1} \geq 0 \)

    \(x_{2} \geq 0 \)

    \(x_{2} \leq 5\)

    \(\text { Corner points are: }(0,0)(5,0),(5,5),(0,10)\).

    \(Z(0,0)=0-0=0 \)

    \(Z(0,5)=0-5=-5 \)

    \(Z(5,5)=5-5=0 \)

    \(Z(10,0)=10-0=10\)

    Maximum \(\mathrm{Z}=\mathrm{Z}(10,0)=10\)

    Thus, problem has one optimum solution.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    Which of the following is not negation of statement “Sum of 2 and 3 is greater than 4”?

    Solution

    Negation of greater is ‘not greater’. ‘Not greater’ means either smaller than or equal to. So, “Sum of 2 and 3 is smaller than or equal to 4”, “Sum of 2 and 3 is not greater than 4”, “Sum of 2 and 3 is not greater than 4” are negation of the given statement. And “Sum of 2 and 3 is smaller than 4” is not the negation of given statement as it should include equal to also.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    A box contains \(100\) round discs, \(50\) square - shaped discs and \(30\) triangular discs. All the discs are made up of iron and have an equal probability of getting attracted by a magnet. If a magnet which can attract only one disc in one pass and the disc is passed over them twice. What is the probability that both times a triangular disc is attracted? The disc attracted in one pass does not fall into box again, however each time a square shaped disc is kept into the box:

    Solution

    A box contains \(100\) round discs, \(50\) square-shaped discs and \(30\) triangular discs.

    Probability \(=\frac{\text { Number of observation }}{\text { Total number of observation }}\)

    Total number of discs \(=180\)

    Total number of triangular discs \(=30\)

    The probability that in first pass a triangular disc is attracted \(=\frac{30}{180}\) \(=\frac{1}{6}\)

    The first disc is kept aside and one square disc is kept inside.

    The probability that in second pass a triangular disc is attracted \(=\frac{29}{180}\)

    Required Probability \(=\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{29}{180}\) \(=\frac{29}{1080}\)

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    The number of integral values of \(m\) for which the quadratic expression, \((1+2 m) x^{2}\) \(-2(1+3 m) x+4(1+m), x \in R\), is always positive, is:

    Solution

    The quadratic expression \(a x^{2}+b x+c, x \in R\) is always positive, if \(a>0\) and \(D<0\)

    So, the quadratic expression

    \((1+2 m) x^{2}-2(1+3 m) x+4(1+m), x \in R\) will be always positive,

    if \(1+2 m>0\) .....(i)

    and \(D=4(1+3 m)^{2}-4(2 m+1) 4(1+m)<0\) .....(ii)

    From inequality Eq. (i), we get

    \(m>-\frac{1}{2}\) .....(iii)

    From in equality Eq. (ii), we get

    \(1+9 m^{2}+6 m-4\left(2 m^{2}+3 m+1\right)<0\)

    \(\Rightarrow m^{2}-6 m-3<0\)

    \(\Rightarrow[\mathrm{m}-(3+\sqrt{12})][\mathrm{m}-(3-\sqrt{12})]<0\)

    \({\left[\because m^{2}-6 m-3=0\right] }\)

    \(\Rightarrow m=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36+12}}{2}=3 \pm \sqrt{12}\)

    \(\Rightarrow 3-\sqrt{12}<\mathrm{m}<3+\sqrt{12}\) .....(iv)

    From in equalities Eqs. (iii) and (iv), the integral values of \(m\) are \(0,1,2,3,4,5,6\)

    So, the number of integral values of \(\mathrm{m}\) is \(7\).

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    If \(-2<2 x-1<2\) then the value of \(x\) lies in the interval:

    Solution

    Given,

    \(-2<2 x-1<2\)

    \(\Rightarrow-2+1<2 x<2+1 \)

    \(\Rightarrow-1<2 x<3 \)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{-1}{2}

    \(\Rightarrow x \in\left(\frac{-1}{2}, \frac{3}{2}\right)\)

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    Approximately, the coefficient of variation for the given data where Pearson's second measure of skewness = 0.42, arithmetic mean = 86 and median = 80, is:

    Solution

    Given:

    Pearsaons measure of skewness \(=0.42\)

    Mean \(=\bar{x}=86\)

    Median \(=M_{d}=80\)

    We know that:

    Skewness \((Sk_{p})=\) \(\frac{3(\text{Mean}-\text{median})}{\text{standard deviation}}\)

    \(0.42=\frac{3\left(\overline{ x }- M _{ d }\right)}{ \sigma}\)

    \(\Rightarrow 0.42=\frac{3(86-80)}{\sigma}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \sigma=\frac{18}{0.42}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \sigma=\frac{300}{7}\)

    Coefficient of variation \(=\) standard

    CV \(=\left(\frac{\frac{300}{7}}{86}\right) \times 100\)

    \(\Rightarrow \left(\frac{300}{7} \times 86\right) \times 100\)

    \(\therefore\) Coefficient of variation is 50.
