1)

The elementary transformation is called a row transformation according as it is applied to

rows only.

2) =

=
On comparing the elements, we have
3y – 2x = 3 ......(i)
2y + 4x = 10 ......(ii)
On solving eqs (i) and (ii), we get

and y = 2

3)

Given that 2X + 3Y = O and X + 2Y = I, where

and
On solving
2X + 3Y = O and X + 2Y = I for X,
We get
4X + 6Y = O and 3X + 6Y = 3I
On subtracting these two equations, we have,
X = –3I

4)

Since, f(x) is a sum of a polynomial function (x2–5) and sin x, both of which are continuous
functions everywhere. Thus f(x) is continuous everywhere.

5)

We have,
f(x) = x3 – 3x2 + 4x, x R
∴ f'(x) = 3x2 – 6x + 4
= 3(x2 – 2x + 1) + 1
= 3(x – 1)2 + 1 > 0, in every interval of R.
Therefore, the function f is strictly increasing on R.

6)

7)

[by division]

8)

9)

The given differential equation is not a polynomial equation in .

Therefore, its degree is not defined.

10)

The highest order derivative present in the given differential equation is . Therefore, its
order is two.

11)

Given, differential equation can be written as

=
 =
Here, we see that order of highest derivative is 2 and degree is 4.

12)

On putting sin2x + 3 sin x + 5 = t

⇒ (2 sinx cosx + 3cosx)dx = dt
⇒ (2sin 2x + 3 cos x) dx = dt,

13)

The sample space S is

S = {HH, TH, (HT,1) (HT,2), (HT,3), (HT,4) (HT, 5), (HT, 6), (TT,1), (TT,2), (TT,3), (TT, 4), (TT,
5), (TT, 6)}
Hence, the total number of outcomes = 14

14)

There are 26 red cards and 26 black cards i.e. total number of cards = 52
P(both cards of different colours)
= P(B) P(R) + P(R) P(B)

15)

The given LPP is

Maximise Z = 4x + 2y
Subject to the constraints are
2x + 3y ≤ 18
x + y ≥ 10
x, y ≥ 0
The graph of the above LPP is
From the above graph, we see that for the feasible solution, there is no common area in the
first quadrant.
Hence, the objective function Z cannot be maximised.

16)

Given, sin–1(1–x) –2 sin–1 x =

⇒ –2 sin–1 x = – sin–1 (1–x)

⇒ –2sin–1x = cos–1(1 – x)
⇒ cos (–2sin–1 x) = 1 – x [ on multiplying both sides by cos x]
⇒ cos (2sin–1 x) = 1 – x [ cos(–x) = + cos x]
⇒ [1–2 sin2 (sin–1 x)] = 1 – x [ cos 2x = 1 – 2sin2x]
⇒ 1–2[sin (sin–1x)]2 = 1– x [ sin2x = (sin x)2]
⇒ 1 – 2x2 = 1 –x ⇒ 2x2 –x = 0
⇒ x(2x–1) = 0 ⇒ x = 0

x = 0 or

But x= does not satisfy the given equation, so x = 0,

Hence , option (c) is correct.

17)

We have , A = {1,2}, B = {3,4,5}

Here, n (A) = 2, n (B) = 3
A. n(A×A) = n(A) × n(A) =2 × 2 = 4
∴ Number of relation from A to A
= 2n(A×A) = 24 = 16
B. n(B × B) = n(B) × n(B) = 3 × 3 = 9
∴ Number of relation from B to B
= 2n(B×B) = 29 = 512)
C. n(A×B)= n(A) × n(B) = 2×3 = 6
∴ Number of relation from A to B
= 2n(A×B) = 26 = 64
D. n(B×A) = n (B) × n(A) = 3 × 2 = 6
∴ Number of relation from B to A
= 2n(B×A) = 26 = 64

18)

Given , A = and B =

Now, AB =
∴ |AB| = 2 –3 = –1

Thus, B–1 A–1 = (AB)–1 =

19)

Let A =
Cofactors of elements of first row are

A11 = = 3 – 0 = 3,

A12 = – = –(2+10) = – 12,

and A13 = = 0 –(–6) = 6

Cofactors of elements of second row are

and A23 = – = – (0 – 2) = 2
Cofactors of elements of third row are

,
and A33 = =3+2=5

Hence, adj (A) =

20)

A and B are square matrices of order 2.

We know that |kA| = kn |A|, where n is order of matrix A.
∴ |3AB| = 32 |A| |B| [ |AB| = |A| |B|]
= 9(–1) (3) = – 27 [ |A| = – 1, |B| = 3]

21)

Here, f(x) =
(i) At x = 0,

LHL =
On putting x = 0 – h as x → 0, h → 0

= (0 – h) = 0 – 0 = 0

RHL =
On putting x = 0 + h as x → 0, h → 0

=
Also, f(0) = 0 [ f(x) = x]
∴ LHL = RHL = f(0)
Thus , f(x) is continuous at x = 0.
(ii) At x = 1,

LHL =
On putting x = 1 – h as x → 1– , h → 0

(1– h) = 1 – 0 = 1

RHL = f(x) = 5
∴ LHL ≠ RHL
Thus, f(x) is discontinuous at x = 1.

(iii) at x = 2,
Also, f(2) = 5
∴ LHL = RHL = f (2)
Thus , f(x) is continuous at x = 2

22)

To check the continuity at x = 0

LHL =

( –1 ≤ cos x ≤ 1 x ∈ R )
= 0 (an oscillating value between –1 and 1)

RHL =

= 0 (an oscillating number between –1 and 1)

and f(0) = 0
Thus, LHL = RHL = f(0) = 0
Hence, function is continuous at x = 0.

23)

x – [X] = 0 , when x is an integer, so that f(x) is discontinuous for all x ∈ I i.e. f(x) is
discontinuous at infinite number of points.

24)

A. Let y = sin (x2 + 5)

On differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get

(sin(x2 + 5)) = cos (x2 +5) (x2 + 5) [by chain rule]

= cos (x2 + 5) (2x + 0)
=2x cos (x2 + 5)
B. Let y = cos (sin x)
On differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get

(cos (sin x))= – sin (sin x) (sin x) [by chain rule]

= –sin (sin x) cos x
= –cos x sin (sin x)
C. let y = sin (ax + b)
On differentiating both sides w.r.t.x, we get

sin (ax + b) = cos (ax + b) (ax + b) [by chain rule]

= cos (ax + b){a × 1 + 0}
= a cos (ax + b)
D. Let y = sec (tan )
On differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get
 (sec(tan ))

= sec (tan ) tan (tan ) (tan ) [by chain rule]

= sec (tan ) tan (tan )

= sec (tan ) tan (tan ) (sec2 )

sec (tan ) tan (tan ) (sec2 )

Given curve is y = x3
On putting, x = – x and y = –y, we get y = x3
Therefore, the curve is symmetrical in opposite quadrant and passes through (0,0).

27)

The given differential equation is .........(i)

On dividing both sides of Eq. (i) by x, we get

y = x.

Which is a linear differential equation of the type + Py = Q, where P = and Q = x

So, IF =

Therefore, solution of the given equation is given by

y. x2 = ⎰ (x) (x2) dx + C
= ⎰ x3 dx + C

⇒ yx2

⇒y= + Cx–2,
which is the general solution of the given differential equation

Equation of the given lines can be written as standard form

and

Direction ratios of these lines are and respectively.

Two lines with direction ratios a1,b1,c1 and a2,b2,c2 are perpendicular to each other, if
a1a2+b2b2+c1c2 = 0

Thus , the value of p is .

31)

Any point on the given line is (5r – 3, 2r +1, 3r – 4). If it is the foot of the perpendicular from
(0,2,3), then
5(5r–3–0) + 2 (2r + 1 – 2) +3(3r –4 – 3) = 0
25r – 15 + 4r – 2 + 9r – 21 = 0
⇒ 38r = 38 ⇒ r = 1
So , foot of the perpendicular is (2,3,–1). [on putting r = 1 in point]

32)

Given line is

Direction ratios of the line are 3,1,0.

Direction ratios of Z- axis are 0,0,1
Now , a1a2 + b1b2+c1c2
=(3)(0) + (1) (0) + (0) (1) = 0
Hence, given line is perpendicular to Z- axis.

∴ θ = cos–1 1 = 0, which is incorrect.

(2) Given , a1 = 1, b1 = 2 and c1 = 3 and

a2 =2 , b2 = 2 and c2 = –2

Hence, given lines are not parallel, which is incorrect.

34)

We have
I =⎰ex (cos x – sin x) dx
Here, f(x) = cos x, f' (x) = – sin x
∴ By using ⎰ex [f(x) + f'(x)] dx
= exf (x) + C, we get
I=ex cos x + C

Let P (1,6,3) be the given point and Let L be the foot of perpendicular from P to the given line.

The coordinates of a general point on the given line are

i.e. x = λ , y = 2λ + 1, z = 3λ + 2.
If the coordinates of L are (λ, 2λ +1 3λ +2), then the direction ratios of P L are λ –1, 2λ–5,
3λ–1.
But the direction ratios of given line which is perpendicular to PL are (1,2,3).
Therefore
(λ–1) + (2λ-5) 2 + (3λ-1) 3 = 0
14λ – 14 = 0
⇒ λ=1
Hence, coordinates of L are (1,3,5).
Let Q (x1,y2,z1) be the image of P (1,6,3) in the given line.
Then , L is the mid -point of PQ.
Therefore

and
⇒ x1 = 1, y1 = 0 and z1 = 7
Hence, the image of (1,6,3) in the given line is (1,0,7)

To create a garden using 200ft fencing , we need to maximise its perimeter.

42)

Required relation is given by 2x + y = 200

43)

Area of garden as a function of x can be represented as

A(x) = x. y = x (200 –2x) = 200x – 2x2

44)

A(x) = 200x – 2x2

⇒ A' (x) = 200 – 4x
For the area to be maximum A'(x) = 0
⇒ 200 – 4x = 0 ⇒ x = 50 ft

45)

Maximum area of the garden

= 200(50) – 2(50)2
= 10000 – 5000
= 5000 sq ft
