Question Explanation:
The ques asks for the relationship between the distances traveled by a particle under constant
acceleration in the first 10 s (s1) and the next 10 s (s2), starting from rest.

Concept:
For constant acceleration, distance traveled is s = ½ a t2 when starting from rest.

Solution:
Distance in the first 10 s: s1 = ½ a (10)2 = 50 a.
Distance in 20 s: stotal = ½ a (20)2 = 200 a.
Distance in the next 10 s (from t = 10 s to t = 20 s): s2 = stotal – s1 = 200 a – 50 a = 150 a.
Ratio: s1 : s2 = 50 a : 150 a = 1 : 3 → s1 = s2 / 3.

Final Answer:
s1 = s2 / 3

n(A) = 17
(B)

52) y = |x – 3| + |x + 1| =
53)

or

x ∈ (–1, 1] ∪ [3, ∞) ∪ {2}

54)

a2 – 2a + 1 + b2 + 2b + 1 + c2 + 2c + 1 = 0

⇒ 2a – 3b + 4c = 2(1) – 3(–1) + 4(–1) = 5 – 4 = 1

55) A : x ∈ (–3, 1) B : x ∈ (–∞, –1] ∪ [3, ∞)

B – A = (–∞, –3] [3, ∞) = R – (–3, 3)

56)

x∈[–3, 0) ∪(0, 1] ∪(3, ∞)

57) Explain question : In this question we have to find solution set of given inequality.
Concept : This question is based on modulus inequalities.
Solution :

Case-1
When x–3≥0⇒x≥3

(x – 3 ≠ 0)

No common sol.
Case-2
When x – 3 < 0 ⇒ x < 3

Common solution is

Final answer : Option (4).

58) put
6x + 2a = A ;
3b + c = B ;
2x + 6a = C ;
b + 3c = D
 ⇒ = .
Now add unity on both sides ; subtract unity from both sides and divide to get
A/B = C/D ⇒ x = ab/c

59) N is divisible by 4 if Q =1,3,5,7,9 and P can be any digit, P = 0,1,2,....,9

number of possible pairs (P ,Q) = 10. 5 = 50

60)

Use a3 + b3 + c3 = 3abc
a+b+c=0
(x)3 + (2y)3 + (–4)3 – 3.x.2y(–4) = 0,
x + 2y – 4 = 0, x + 2y = 4

61) Question Explanation:

We have to find value of the given expression.

Concept:
This question is based on rule of exponent.

Solution:

Final Answer:
The correct option is (2).

62)

Case I
x < –1
–(x + 1) – 3(x – 2) – 5(x – 4) = 20

–9x = –5 ∴ (rejected)
Case II
–1 ≤ x < 2
x + 1 – 3(x – 2) – 5(x – 4) = 20
–7x = –7 ∴ x = 1
Case III
2≤x<4
(x + 1) + 3(x – 2) – 5(x – 4) = 20
–x = 5 (rejected)
Case IV
4≤x
(x + 1) + 3(x – 2) + 5(x – 4) = 20
9x = 45

x=5

x + 1 = 51/16
(x + 1)48 = 53 = 125

64) Question Explanation: Finding all integer values of x that satisfy the exponential
equation.
Concept: Solving Exponential Equations of type
Case-I x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = –5
∵ At x = –5, x2 – 5x + 5 ≠ 0
∴ x = –5 is accepted
Case-II x2 – 5x + 5 = 1 ⇒ x = 1, 4
Case-III x2 – 5x + 5 = –1 and x + 5 = even
x2 – 5x + 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 2, 3
If x = 2, 2 + 5 = odd number (Reject)
If x = 3, 3 + 5 = even number (Accept)
So, Integral x = –5, 1, 4, 3
So number of integral solutions = 4
Final Answer : Option (1)

67) P(1) = 10, P(2) = 20 and P(3) = 30

we can write these information as
P(x) = 10x for x = 1, 2, 3
P(x) - 10x = 0 has roots x = 1, 2 and 3
By factor theorem
P(x) - 10x = (x — α) (x - 1) (x - 2) (x -3)
P(x) = (x - α)(x - 1)(x - 2)(x -3) +10x
P(4) + P(0) = (4 - α) (3)(2)(1)+40+ (–α)(−1)(-2)(-3) +0
= 24-6α + 40 + 6α

68) Conceptual

69) No real value of x

70)
= 12 – 1
= 11

71)

72) Let

⇒A+B=1

73) The equation (1) is defined when x ≠ 2. We can cancel 5/(x – 2) from bothe the side of (1)
to obtain x = 2
Thus, (1) has no solution.

74) f(x) = x5 – 4x3 + k

As x – 1 is a factor of f(x)
f(1) = 0
⇒1–4+k=0
⇒k=3
