Solution:
(d) Given, |A| = -2
|adj (2A)| = |(2A)|3-1= |2A|² = (2³|A|)² [∵ |adj A| = |A|m-1]
= 26 |A|² = 26 × (-2)² = 28

(a) xy = c
(b) x = cy2²
(c) y =cx
(d) y = cx²

For x ≥ 0, f(x) = 2x, which is a linear function, and when x < 0, f(x) = 0 which is a constant
function.
∴ f(x) is differentiable when x ∈ (- ∞, 0) ∪ (0, ∞).

Assertion-Reason Based Questions


In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R).
Choose the correct answer out of the following choices.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A
(c) A is true but R is false
(d) A is false but R is true

Question 19.
Let f(x) be a polynomial function of degree 6 such that
ddx[f(x)] = (x- 1)³ (x – 3)², then
Assertion (A) fix) has a minimum at x = 1.
Reason (R) When ddx [f(x)] < 0,
∀ x ∈ (a – h, a) and ddx[f(x)] > 0,
∀ x ∈ (a, a + h)’, where h is an infinitesimally small positive quantity, then f(x) has a minimum at
x = a, provided fix) is continuous at x- a.
Solution:
(a) Given, ddx [f(x)] = (x – 1)³(x – 3)²
On putting ddx f(x) = 0 ⇒ (x – 1)³ (x – 3)² = 0
∴ x = 1 and x = 3
∵ ddx [f(x)] < 0, ∀ x ∈ (1 – h, 1) and ddx [/(x)] > 0, ∀ x ∈ (1, 1 + h)
∴ f(x) has a minimum at x = 1
∴ Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
Question 20.
Assertion (A) The relation
f : (1, 2, 3, 4} → {x, y, z, p} defined by f = {(1, x), (2, y), (3, z)} is a bijective function.
Reason (R) The function
f : (1, 2, 3} → {x, y, z, p} such that
f = {(1, x), (2, y), (3, z)} is one-one.
Solution:
(d) Given relation, f:{1,2, 3, 4} → {x, y, z, p}
and f = {(1, x), (2, y), (3, z)}
Since, 4 has no image under f, so relation f is not a function.
∴ Assertion is false.
Now, f: {1,2, 3} → {x, y, z, p}
and f = {(1, x), (2, y),(3,z)}
Since, every element {1,2, 3} has different image in {x, y, z, p} underf, so the given relation f is
one-one.
∴ Reason is true.

Section B
(This section comprises of very short answer type questions (VSA) of 2 marks each)
Question 21.
Find the value of sin-1[cos(33π5)]
Or
Find the domain of sin-1(x² – 4).
Solution:

Or
Let y = sin-1(x² – 4) ⇒ sin y = x² – 4
i.e. -1 ≤ x² – 4 ≤ 1 [∵ -1 ≤ sin y ≤ 1]
⇒ 3 ≤ x² ≤ 5
⇒ x ∈ [-√5, – √3] u [√3, √5]

Question 22.
Find the interval/s in which the function
f : R → R defined by f(x) = xex, is increasing.
Solution:
Given, f(x) = xex
On differentiating w.r.t, x, we get
f'(x) = xex + ex = ex(x + 1)
For f(x) to be increasing, we have
f'(x) = ex(x + 1) ≥ 0
⇒ x ≥ -1 as ex > 0, ∀ x ∈ R
Hence, the required interval, where f(x) increases is [-1, ∞)

Question 23.
If f(x) = 14x2+2x+1, x ∈ R, then find the maximum value of f(x).
Or
Find the maximum profit that a company can make, if the profit function is given by P(x) = 72
+42x – x², where x is the number of units and P is the profit in rupees.
Solution:
Or
Given, P(x) = 72 + 42x + x²
On differentiating w.r.t. x, we get
P'(x) = 42 – 2x
For maximum profit, we put P’ (x) = 0
⇒ 42 – 2x = 0
⇒ x = 21
∴ The maximum value of P(x) is at x = 21
⇒ P(21) = 72+ 42(21) – 21²
= 72 + 882 – 441
= 513
Thus, the maximum profit is ₹ 513.
Question 24.
Evaluate ∫1−1loge(2−x2+x)
Solution:

Question 25.
Check whether the function f: R → R defined by f(x) = x³ + x, has any critical point/s or not? If
yes, then find the point/s.
Solution:
Given, f(x) = x³ +x, ∀ x ∈ R
On differentiating w.r.t. x, we get
f'(x)= 3x² + 1
∵ x² > 0, ∀ x ∈ R
∴ f'(x) can never be zero or undefined, ∀ x ∈ R
⇒ f'(x) = 0
Hence, no critical point exists.

This section comprises of short answer type questions (SA) of 3 marks each

Question 26.
Evaluate 2x2+3x2(x2+9) dx, x ≠ 0.
Solution:

Question 27.
The random variable X has a probability distribution P(X) of the following form, where ‘k ‘is some
real number.

(i) Determine the value of k.


(ii) Find P(X < 2).
(iii) Find P(X > 2).
Solution:
(i) ∑ P(Xi) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(otherwise) = 1
⇒ k + 2k + 3k + 0 =
⇒ 6k = 1 ⇒ k = 16
(ii) P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) ⇒ k + 2k = 3k = 3(16) = 12
(iii) P(X > 2) = 0

Question 28.
Evaluate ∫x1−x3 dx , x ∈ (0, 1).
Or
Evaluate ∫π40log<sub>e</sub> (1 + tan x)dx
Solution:

Or
Question 29.
Solve the differential equation

Or
Solve the differential equation
(cos² x)dydx + y = tan x; (0 ≤ x < 33π5)
Solution:
Given, differential equation is

On comparing with dydx + Py = Q, we get


P = sec² x, Q = (sec² x) tan x
Integrating Factor, IF = e∫Pdx
= e∫sec² x dx
= etan x
∴ Solution of the differential equation is
y × IF = ∫ (0 × IF)dx + C
y × etan x = ∫ (sec² x) tan x etan x dx + C
Let l1 = ∫ sec² x tan x etan xdx
Let tan x = t
On differentiating w.r.t. x,
sec² x = dtdx
⇒ sec² x dx = dt

Using integration by parts, we get


l1 = tet – et
= tan xetan x – etan x + C1
= etan x(tan x – 1) + C1
From Eq. (i),
y × etan x = etan x(tan x – 1) + C1
⇒ y = tan x – 1 + (C1 + C)e-tan x
Question 30.
Solve the following Linear Programming Problem graphically
Minimize Z = x + 2 y
subject to the constraints, x + 2 y ≥ 100
2x – y ≤ 0, 2x + y ≤ 200, x, y ≥ 0.
Or
Solve the following Linear Programming
Problem graphically
Maximize Z = – x + 2 y,
subject to the constraints, x ≥ 3, x + y ≥ 5, x + 2y ≥ 6, y ≥ 0.
Solution:
We have, minimize Z = x + 2y ……(i)
and constraints are x + 2y > 100 ……(ii)
2x – y ≤ 0 ……(iii)
2x + y ≤ 200 ……(iv)
x, y ≥ 0 ……(v)
The shaded region is the feasible region ABCD determined by the system of constraints (ii) to
(v), which is bounded.

The coordinates of comer points A, B, C and D are (0, 50), (0, 200), (50, 100) and (20, 40),
respectively.

Corner Point Corresponding value of Z = x + 2y


A(0, 50) Z = 0 + 2(50) = 100 (Minimum)

B(0, 200) Z = 0 + 2(200) = 400

C(50, 100) Z = 50+ 2(100) = 250

D(20, 40) Z = 20 + 2(40) = 100 (Minimum)

The minimum value of Z is 100 at all the points on the line segment joining the points (0, 50)
and (20, 40).
Or
We have, maximize Z = – x + 2y ….(i)
and the constraints x ≥ 3 ….(ii)
x + y ≥ 5 ….(iii)
x + 2y ≥ 6 ….(iv)
y ≥ 0 ….(v)
The shaded region is the feasible region determined by the system of constraints (ii) to (v) which
is unbounded.

The coordinates of corner points A, B and C are (3, 2) (4, 1) and (6, 0), respectively.

Corner Point Corresponding value of Z = -x + 2y


A( 3, 2) Z = -3 + 2(2) = 1

B(4, 1) Z = -4 + 2(1) = -2

C(6, 0) Z = -6 + 2(0) = -6

Here, Z = 1 may or may not be the maximum value.

Now, we draw the graph of the inequality – x + 2y > 1 and we check whether the resulting open
half-plane has any point in common with the feasible region or not.
Here, the resulting open half plane has points in common with the feasible region.
Hence, Z = 1 is not the maximum value.
∴ Z has no maximum value.

Question 31.
If (a + bx) ey/x = x, then prove that
xd2ydx2 = (xaa+bx)²
Solution:
Given, (a + bx) ey/x = x
⇒ ey/x = xa+bx
Taking loge both sides, we get

Question 32.
Make a rough sketch of the region
{(x, y):0 < y ≤ x² +1,
0 ≤ y ≤ x + 1, 0 ≤ x ≤ 2} and find the area of the region, using the method of integration.
Solution:

Question 33.
Let N be the set of all natural numbers and R be a relation on N × N defined by (a, b)R(c, d) ⇔
ad = be for all.
(a, b), (c, d) ∈ N × N. Show that R is an equivalence relation on N × N. Also, find the
equivalence class of (2, 6) i.e. [(2, 6)].
Or
Show that the function f : R-+ {x ∈ R: -1 < x < 1} defined by
f(x) = x1+|x|, x ∈ R is one-one and onto function.
Solution:
We know that a relation R is an equivalence relation if it is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
For reflexive
For any (a,b) ∈ N × N
ab = ba [∵ multiplication is commutative on N]
⇒ (a, b) R(a, b) [from definition of relation R on N × N]
Thus, R is reflexive.
For symmetric
Let (a, b), (c, d) be arbitrary elements of N × N
(a,b) R(c,d)
⇒ ad = be
⇒ bc = ad
⇒ cb = da [as a,b,c,d ∈ N and multiplication is commutative on N]
⇒ (c, d) R(a, b)
∴ R is symmetric.

For transitive
Let (a, b), (c, d), (e, f) be arbitrary elements of N × N such that (a, b) R(c, d) and (c, d) R(e, f).
Then, ad = bc and cf = de
⇒ (ad)(cf) = (bc)(de)
⇒ af = be
⇒ (a, b) R(e, f)
∴ R is transitive.
Hence, R is an equivalence relation.

Now, [(2, 6)] = {(x, y) ∈ N × N: (x, y) R(2, 6)}


⇒ 6x = 2y ⇒ 3x = y
∴ [(2, 6)] = {(x, y) ∈ N × N 3x = y}
= {(x, 3x): x ∈ N}
= {(1, 3), (2, 6), (3, 9)…}
Or

⇒ x1 + x1x2 = x2 + x1x2 ⇒ x1 = x2
∴ f(x) is one-one.
Checking onto:
Let f(x) = y, such that y ∈ (-1, 1)
∴ y = x1+x
⇒ y + xy = x ⇒ x – xy = y
⇒ x(1 – y) = y ⇒ x = x1−y
∵ x is defined at ∀ y ∈ (-1, 1)
∴ f(x) is onto.
Case II When x < 0, we have
f(x) = x1−x
Checking one-one :
Let x1, x2 ∈ R
f(x1) = f(x2)
⇒ x11−x1=x21−x2
⇒ x1 – x2x1 = x2 – x2x1 ⇒ x1 = x2
∴ f(x) is one-one.
Checking onto
Let y = f(x) such that y ∈ (-1, 1)
⇒ y = x1−x ⇒ y – yx = x ⇒ x = x1+y
∴ ∀ y ∈ (-1, 1), x is defined.
∴ f(x) is onto.
Hence, f(x) is one-one and onto function.

Question 34.
Using the matrix method, solve the following system of linear equations.

Solution:
The given system of equations can be written in the form AX = B.

Question 35.
Find the coordinates of the image of the point (1, 6, 3) with respect to the
line r⃗ =(j^+2k^)+λ(i^+2j^+3k^), where λ. is a scalar. Also, find the distance of the image
from the F-axis.
Or
An aeroplane is flying along the line
r⃗ =λ(i^−j^+k^), where λ is a scalar and another aeroplane is flying along the line
r⃗ =i^−j^+μ(−2j^+k^), where µ is a scalar. At what points on the lines should they reach, so
that the distance between them is the shortest? Find the shortest possible distance between
them.
Solution:
Given, r⃗ =(j^+2k^)+λ(i^+2j^+3k^)
The coordinates of a general point on the given line are given by
x−01=y−12=z−23 = λ
where λ is some real number.

∴ x = λ, y = 2λ + 1, z = 3λ + 2
Let Q(1, 6, 3) be the given point and let P(x, y, z) be a point on the given line AB such that QP ⊥
AB.
Also, let R(x1, y1, z1) be the image of Q(1, 6, 3).
∴ The coordinates of P are (λ, 2λ + 1, 3λ + 2)
Direction ratios of QP are λ – 1, 2λ – 5, 3λ – 1
Direction ratios of given line are 1,2 and 3.
∴ (λ – 1)1 + (2λ – 5)2 + (3λ – 1)3 = 0 [∵ QP ⊥ AB]
⇒ λ – 1 + 4λ – 10 + 9λ – 3 = 0 ⇒ λ = 1
So, coordinates of P are (1, 3, 5). (1)
Now, since P is the mid-point of QR.
∴ (x1+12,y1+62,z1+32) = (1, 3, 5)
On comparing, we get
x1 = 1, y1 = 0 and z1 = 7
The coordinates of the image of the point (1,6, 3) ,w.r.t. the line AB = (1, 0, 7)
Now, the distance of the point (1, 0, 7) from Y-axis

Let AB be the shortest distance between the lines such that AS makes right angle with both the
lines.
Let the position vector of the point A lying on the line
r⃗ =λ(i^−j^+k^) ….(i)
and let the position vector of the point 6 lying on the line

⇒ 2 + 3µ – 3λ = 0 … (iii)
and 0(1 – λ) – 2(-1 – 2µ + λ) + 1(µ – λ) = 0
⇒ 2 + 5µ – 3λ = 0 … (iv)
From Eqs. (iii) and (iv),
2 + 3µ =2 + 5µ
⇒ 2µ =0
⇒µ=0
∴ λ = 23
So, the position vector of the points at which they should be so that the distance between them
is the shortest are

error, then find the probability that the form is not processed by James.
Or
Let E be the event of committing an error in processing the form and let E1, E2 and E3 be the
events that James,
Sophia and Oliver processed the form.

Solution:

(ii) The total probability of committing an error
= P(E) = P(E1) – P(E/E1) + P(E2)
P(E/E2) + P(E3) P(E/E3)
= 12 × 0.06 + 15 × 0.04 + 310 × 0.03
= 0.047
[∵ P(E/E1) = 0.06, P(E/E2) = 0.04, P(E/E3) = 0.03]
(iii) The probability that the form is processed by James given that the form has an error

is governed by the following equation y = 4x – 12x²,
where x is the number of days exposed to the sunlight, for x ≤ 3.

(i) Find the rate of growth of the plant with respect to the number of days exposed to the sunlight.
(ii) Does the rate of growth of the plant increase or decrease in the first three days? What will be
the height of the plant after 2 days?
Solution:
(i) Given, y = 4x – 12x²
On differentiating w.r.t. x,
dydx = 4-x
∴ Rate of growth of the plant with respect to the number of days exposed to the sunlight is 4 – x.
(ii) dydx = 4 – x
On differentiating again w.r.t. x,
d2ydx2 = -1 < 0
⇒ dydxdecreases
So, the rate of growth of the plant decreases for the first three days.
Height of the plant after 2 days
= y(2) = 4 × 2 – 12 × 2²
= 8 – 2 = 6cm
