Let L be the length of the string ,AC = L cm, AE = x cm .

Where , CE = 151.5 – 1.5 = 150 cm
In triangle ACE, L2 = x2 + 1502 ( 1/ 2 mark)

By diff., 2L dL/dt = 2x dx/dt

dL/dt = 10x/L m/sec ( ½ mark)

when L = 250; L2 = x2 + 1502

2502 = x2 + 1502

x= 200m

therefore, dL/dt = 10(200)/250 = 8 m/sec (1/2 mark)

the string is being let out at the 8m/sec, when kite is 250 m away from the boy.

23. To prove ; the function f(x) = 5 – 3x + 3 x – x is decreasing on R.

f ’ (x) = - 3 x2 + 6x – 3 = -3(x - 1)2 ( ½ mark)

for f ‘(x) = o, we get x = 1 ( ½ mark)
In ( , f ‘ (x) < 0 and In [ 1, ], f ‘ (x) < 0. ( ½ + ½ mark)
Therefore, f(x) is decreasing on R.

24. maximum value is 3 and no minimum value. ( 1 + 1 Mark)

25. f(x) = sin x + √𝟑 cos x

f’ (x) = cos x - √𝟑 sin x

1 mark for graph, 1 mark for table,

The corner points are A and B.

A(6,0): Z = (6) + 2(0) = 6

B ( 0, 3) : Z = (0) + 2(3) = 6

Draw z – line (dotted) x + 2y < 6 .

Therefore, the minimum value of z is 6, occurs at all points of the line segment A (6, 0)

Given the relation n is R on Z defined by (a,b)∈R⇔|a−b|≤5.

This relation is reflexive as ∀a∈Z, (a,a)∈R since |a−a|=0≤5. ( 1 mark)

Also the relation is symmetric as |b−a|=|a−b|≤5 so (a,b)∈R (b,a)∈R,∀a,b∈Z (2 marks)

But the relation is not transitive as (1,2)∈R,(2,7)∈R but (1,7)∉R ( 2 marks)
