  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    If \(A\) and \(B\) are two events such that \(P ( A \cup B )\)= \(\frac{5}{6}\) , \(P ( A \cap B )\) = \(\frac{1} {3}\), \(P ( B )\) = \(\frac{1}2\), then the events \(A\) and \(B\) are:

    Solution

    Given, \(P ( A \cup B )\)= \(\frac{5}{6}\) 

     \(P ( A \cap B )\) = \(\frac{1} {3}\), \(P ( B )\) = \(\frac{1}2\)

    We know that, \(P(A \cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A \cap B)\)

    \(\frac{5}{6}=P(A)+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}\)

    \(\Rightarrow P(A)=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}\)

    \(\Rightarrow P(A)=\frac{5-3+2}{6}\)

    \(\Rightarrow P(A)=\frac{2}{3}\)

    We know that for independent events,

    \(P(A) \cdot P(B)\) = \(P(A \cap B)\)

    \(P(A \cap B)\) = \((\frac{2}{3}) \times(\frac{1}{2})\) =\(\frac{1}{3}\)

    This is equal to \(P ( A \cap B )\).

    Thus events \(A\) and \(B\) are independent events.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    The point(s) on the curve \(y=x^3-11 x+5\) at which the tangent is \(y=x-11\) is/are:

    Solution

    Given, the curve \(y=x^3-11 x+5---(1)\)

    The slope of the tangent \(=\frac{d y}{d x}--(2)\)

    Differentiate equation (1) w.r.t. x, we have

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=3 x^2-11\)

    The tangent to the curves is \(y=x-11--(3)\)

    The slope of the tangent \(=1\)

    From equation (2),

    \(\therefore \frac{d y}{d x}=1\)

    \(\Rightarrow 3 x^2-11=1\)

    \(\Rightarrow 3 x^2=12\)

    \(\Rightarrow x^2=4\)

    \(\Rightarrow x= \pm 2\)

    From equation (1), at \(x=2, y=2^3-11 \times 2+5=-9\) and at \(x=-2, y=(-2)^3-11 \times(-2)+5=19\)

    The points are \((2,-9)\) and \((-2,19)\).

    These points should satisfy the equation of tangent also.

    Substitute \(x=2\) and \(y=-9\) in the equation (3), we have

    \(\Rightarrow-9=2-11\)

    \(\Rightarrow-9=-9\)

    Therefore, the point \((2,-9)\) lies on the tangent.

    Now, substitute \(x=-2\) and \(y=19\) in the equation (3), we have

    \(\Rightarrow 19 \neq-2-11\)

    \(\Rightarrow 19 \neq-13\)

    The point \((-2,19)\) does not lie on the tangent.

    Therefore, the point is \((2,-9)\).

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    If \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) are the roots of the equation \(x^{2}+p x+q=0\), then the value of \((\alpha+\beta) x-\left(\frac{\alpha^{2}+\beta^{2}}{2}\right) x^{2}+\left(\frac{\alpha^{3}+\beta^{3}}{3}\right) x^{3}+\ldots\), is:

    Solution

    Given series:

    \(\left[\alpha x-\frac{1}{2}(\alpha x)^{2}+\frac{1}{3}(\alpha x)^{3}-\ldots\right]+\left[\beta x-\frac{1}{2}(\beta x)^{2}+\frac{1}{3}(\beta x)^{3}-\ldots\right]\)

    \(=\log (1+\alpha x)+\log (1+\beta x)\)

    \(=\log \left[1+(\alpha+\beta) x+\alpha \beta x^{2}\right]\)

    Now, \(\alpha+\beta=p\) and \(\alpha \beta=q\)

    Given series \(=\log \left(1-p x+q x^{2}\right)\)

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    If \({ }^{{n}} {P}_{{r}}=2760,{ }^{{n}} {C}_{{r}}=23\), then the value of \({r}\) is:

    Solution

    Given that:

    \({ }^{{n}} {P}_{{r}}=2760,{ }^{{n}} {C}_{{r}}=23\)

    We know that,

    \({ }^{{n}} {C}_{{r}}=\frac{{ }^{{n}} {P}_{{r}}}{{r} !}\)

    \(\Rightarrow 23=\frac{2760}{r !}\)

    \(\Rightarrow {r} !=\frac{2760}{23}=120\)

    \(\Rightarrow {r} !=5 \times 24\)

    \(\Rightarrow {r} !=5 \times 4 \times 6\)

    \(\Rightarrow {r} !=5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1\)

    \(\Rightarrow {r!}=5!\)

    \(\therefore r=5\)

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    The mean of \(8\) observations is \(25\). The \(7\) observations are \(30, 24, 27, 22, 18, 26, 32\). What is the \(8\)th observation?

    Solution

    Let the missing number be \(x\).

    Given:

    Mean = \(25\), Total elements = \(8\)

    Mean of n elements \(=\frac{\text { Sum of all n elements }}{\text { Total number of elements (n) }}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{30+24+27+22+18+26+32+x}{8}=25\)

    \(\Rightarrow 179+x=200\)

    \(x=21\)

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    If \(\omega \neq 1\) is a cube root of unity, then \(A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1+2 \omega^{100}+\omega^{200} & \omega^{2} & 1 \\ 1 & 1+2 \omega^{100}+\omega^{200} & \omega \\ \omega & \omega^{2} & 2+\omega^{100}+2 \omega^{200}\end{array}\right]\)

    Solution

    Since \(\omega^{3}=1\) given determinant can be rewritten as:

    \(A=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}1+2 \omega+\omega^{2} & \omega^{2} & 1 \\ 1 & 1+\omega^{2}+2 \omega & \omega \\ \omega & \omega^{2} & 2+\omega+2 \omega^{2}\end{array}\right|\)

    \(\therefore |A|=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}\omega & \omega^{2} & 1 \\ 1 & \omega & \omega \\ \omega & \omega^{2} & 1+\omega^{2}\end{array}\right|\left(\because 1+\omega+\omega^{2}=0\right)\)

    \(=\omega\left|\begin{array}{ccc}\omega & \omega & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & \omega \\ \omega & \omega & -\omega\end{array}\right|\left(\because 1+\omega+\omega^{2}=0\right)\)

    \(\Rightarrow \omega(0)=0\)

    Thus, A is singular.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    Consider the following Linear Programming Problem (LPP):

    Maximize Z = 3x1 + 2x2 Subject to       

    x1 ≤ 4

    x2 ≤ 6

    3x1 + 2x2 ≤ 18

    x1 ≥ 0, x2 ≥ 0

    Solution


  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    If \(|x|<-5\) then the value of \(x\) lies in the interval:

    Solution

    Given,

    \(|{x}|<-5\)

    Now, LHS \(\geq 0\) and RHS \(<0\)

    Since LHS is non-negative and RHS is negative So, \(|x|<-5\) does not posses any solution.

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    In the following trigonometry expression, find the value of (MN).

    \(\frac{(1+\cos x)}{(1-\sin x)}(\sin x+\cos x-1)^{2}=M \sin ^{N} x\)

    Solution

    Given,

    \(\frac{(1+\cos x)}{(1-\sin x)}(\sin x+\cos x-1)^{2}=M \sin ^{N} x\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{(1+\cos x)}{(1-\sin x)}(\sin x+\cos x-1)^{2}=M \sin ^{N} x\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{(1+\cos x)}{(1-\sin x)} \times 2(1-\sin x)(1-\cos x)=M \sin ^{N} x\)

    \(\Rightarrow 2(1+\cos x)(1-\cos x)=\mathrm{M} \sin ^{N} x\)

    \(\Rightarrow 2\left(1-\cos ^{2} x\right)=M \sin ^{N} x\)

    \(\Rightarrow 2 \sin ^{2} x=M \sin ^{N} x\)

    \(\text { Comparing both sides, we have- }\)

    \(\Rightarrow M N=(2 \times 2)=4\)

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    What is the number of possible values of k for which the line joining the points (k, 1,3) and (1,-2, k+1) also passes through the point (15,2,-4)?

    Solution

    The direction ratios of the line joining the points \(\left(x_1, y_1, z_1\right)\) and \(\left(x_2, y_2, z_2\right)\) is given by: \(a=x_2-x_1, b=y_2-y_1\) and \(c=z_2-z_1\)

    The direction ratios of the line joining the points (k, 1, 3) and (1,-2, k+1) is: a=1-k, b=-3 and c=k-2

    If a, b, and c are the direction ratio ratios of a line passing through the point \(\left(x_1, y_1, z_1\right)\), then the equation of a line is given by: \(\frac{x-x_1}{a}=\) \(\frac{y-y_1}{b}=\frac{z-z_1}{c}\)

    The equation of the line with direction ratios a, b, c and passing through the point (k, 1, 3) is given by: \(\frac{z-k}{1-k}=\frac{y-1}{-3}=\frac{z-3}{k-2}\)

    \(\because\) It is given that, the line represented by \(\frac{x-k}{1-k}=\frac{y-1}{-3}=\frac{z-3}{k-2}\) alsopasses through the point \((15,2,-4)\)

    So, substitute \(x=15, y=2\) and \(z=-4\) in the equation \(\frac{x-k}{1-k}=\) \(\frac{y-1}{-3}=\frac{z-3}{k-2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{15-k}{1-k}=\frac{2-1}{-3}=\frac{-4-3}{k-2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{15-k}{1-k}=\frac{1}{-3}\)

    \(\Rightarrow-45+3 \mathrm{k}=1-\mathrm{k}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{k}=\frac{23}{2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{1}{-3}=\frac{-7}{k-2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{k}-2=21\)

    \(\Rightarrow \mathrm{k}=23\)

    Therefore, there are two possible values of k.
