Q3 Detailed Solution

Given: P(x)=2x^3 + x^2 -13x + 6

Step 1: Verify (x+3) is factor → put x = -3

P(-3)=2(-27)+9+39+6=0 → hence (x+3) is a factor

Step 2: Divide polynomial by (x+3)

Result: 2x^2 -5x +2

Step 3: Factor quadratic

2x^2 -5x +2 = (2x-1)(x-2)

Final Factorization: (x+3)(2x-1)(x-2)

Roots: x = -3, 1/2, 2

Q4 Detailed Solution

Use approximations for small x:

(1+x)^n ≈ 1 + nx

Apply to each part and simplify step-by-step

Final result: 2/3 + 13x/72

Q5 Detailed Gaussian Elimination

Equations:

1) x+2y-3z=4

2) 2x-3y+4z=5

3) 3x+4y-5z=6

Step 1: Eliminate x from (2) and (3)

Step 2: Solve resulting 2 equations

Step 3: Back substitute

Final Answer: x=1, y=1, z=1

Q6 Detailed AG Series

Series: 1 + 5(1/2) + 9(1/2)^2 + ...

Arithmetic part: 1,5,9,... → nth term = 4n-3

Geometric part: (1/2)^(n-1)

General term: Tn = (4n-3)(1/2)^(n-1)


Sum to infinity exists since |r|<1 → r=1/2

Vector Detailed

a = 3i -2j +4k, b = i +2j -k

a × b = determinant method:

|i j k|

|3 -2 4|

|1 2 -1|

Result: (-6i +7j +8k)

Dot product with a and b gives 0 → perpendicular verified

Trigonometry Detailed

Using identity:

cos(α-β)=cosαcosβ+sinαsinβ (proved using expansion formulas)

Graph Explanation

y=3cos2x

Amplitude = 3, Period = π

Key points calculated in interval [-π/2, π/2]

Combinatorics Detailed

Total engineers=7, managers=5

a) C(7,3)*C(5,2)

b) C(7,4)*C(5,1)

c) At least 4 engineers → cases (4E,1M) and (5E,0M)

d) At most 1 manager → (5E,0M) and (4E,1M)
