36 Case Study-1

Sherlin and Danju are playing Ludo at home during Covid - 19. While rolling the dice, Sherlin’s
sister Raji observed and noted the possible outcomes of the throw every time belongs to set 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6. Let A be the set of players while B be the set of all possible outcomes.

A = S, D, B = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

i. Let R ∶ B→ B be defined by R = (x, y): y is divisible by x. Determine whether R is Reflexive,

symmetric or transitive. (1)
ii. Raji wants to know the number of functions from A to B. How many number of functions are
possible? (1)
iii. Let R be a relation on B defined by R = (1, 2), (2, 2), (1, 3), (3, 4), (3, 1), (4, 3), (5, 5). Then
describe R . (2)
OR

Raji wants to know the number of relations possible from A to B. How many numbers of
relations are possible? (2)
37 Case Study-2:

Naina is creative she wants to prepare a sweet box for Diwali at home. She took a square piece of
cardboard of side 18 cm which is to be made into an open box, by cutting a square from each corner
and folding up the flaps to form the box. She wants to cover the top of the box with some decorative
paper. Naina is interested in maximizing the volume of the box.

i. Find the volume of the open box formed by folding up the cutting each corner with x cm. (1)
ii. Naina is interested in maximizing the volume of the box. So, what should be the side of the
square to be cut off so that the volume of the box is maximum? (1)
iii. Verify that volume of the box is maximum at x = 3 cm by second derivative test? (2)
OR
Find the maximum volume of the box. (2)
38 Case Study-3:
Akshat and his friend Aditya were playing the snake and ladder game. They had their own dice to
play the game. Akshat was having red dice whereas Aditya had black dice. In the beginning, they
were using their own dice to play the game. But then they decided to make it faster and started
playing with two dice together.

Page 5 of 6
Aditya rolled down both black and red die together.
First die is black and second is red.
i. Find the conditional probability of obtaining the sum 10, given that the black die resulted in
even number. (2)
ii. Find the conditional probability of obtaining the doublet, given that the red die resulted in a
number more than 4. (2)
