Position vector of the mid-point of line segment AB is 3i^+2j^−3k^. If position vector of the point A is 2i^+3j^−4k^, then position vector of the point B is
The corner points of the feasible region of a linear programming problem are (0, 4), (8, 0) and (320,34). If Z = 30x + 24y is the objective function, then (maximum value of Z − minimum value of Z) is equal to
Assertion (A) : If a line makes angles α,β,γ with positive direction of the coordinate axes, then sin2α+sin2β+sin2γ=2. Reason (R) : The sum of squares of the direction cosines of a line is 1.
(A)Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
(B)Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
(C)(A) is true, but (R) is false.
(D)(A) is false, but (R) is true.
Show answer & solution
Answer: (A) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
(R) is true: cos2α+cos2β+cos2γ=1.
Then sin2α+sin2β+sin2γ=3−(cos2α+cos2β+cos2γ)=3−1=2.

Two balls are drawn at random one by one with replacement from an urn containing equal number of red balls and green balls. Find the probability distribution of number of red balls. Also, find the mean of the random variable.
Show answer & solution
Answer: X = 0, 1, 2 with P = 41,21,41; mean = 1
P(red) =21 on each draw (with replacement). Let X = number of red balls: X = 0, 1, 2.
A and B throw a die alternately till one of them gets a ‘6’ and wins the game. Find their respective probabilities of wining, if A starts the game first.
Show answer & solution
Answer: P(A wins) =116, P(B wins) =115
P(six) =61, P(no six) =65; throws are independent.
A wins on throw 1, 3, 5, ...: P(A) =61+(65)261+(65)461+…
Find the equations of the diagonals of the parallelogram PQRS whose vertices are P(4, 2, −6), Q(5, −3, 1), R(12, 4, 5) and S(11, 9, −2). Use these equations to find the point of intersection of diagonals.
A line l passes through point (−1, 3, −2) and is perpendicular to both the lines 1x=2y=3z and −3x+2=2y−1=5z+1. Find the vector equation of the line l. Hence, obtain its distance from origin.
Show answer & solution
Answer:r=(−i^+3j^−2k^)+λ(2i^−7j^+4k^); distance =695 units
Direction of l∥(i^+2j^+3k^)×(−3i^+2j^+5k^)=4i^−14j^+8k^∥2i^−7j^+4k^.
l: r=(−i^+3j^−2k^)+λ(2i^−7j^+4k^).
Distance of O from l=∣b∣∣a×b∣ with a=−i^+3j^−2k^, b=2i^−7j^+4k^.
A function f: [−4, 4] → [0, 4] is given by f(x)=16−x2. Show that f is an onto function but not a one-one function. Further, find all possible values of ‘a’ for which f(a)=7.
Show answer & solution
Answer: f is onto, not one-one; a = ±3
Not one-one: f(−4)=0=f(4) but −4=4.
Onto: for any y∈[0,4], take x=16−y2∈[0,4]⊂[−4,4]; then f(x)=16−(16−y2)=y.
So every element of [0, 4] has a pre-image; f is onto.
Engine displacement is the measure of the cylinder volume swept by all the pistons of a piston engine. The piston moves inside the cylinder bore The cylinder bore in the form of circular cylinder open at the top is to be made from a metal sheet of area 75π cm2. Based on the above information, answer the following questions : (i) If the radius of cylinder is r cm and height is h cm, then write the volume V of cylinder in terms of radius r. (1) (ii) Find drdV. (1) (iii) Find the radius of cylinder when its volume is maximum. (2) OR For maximum volume, h > r. State true or false and justify. (2)
Show answer & solution
Answer: (i) V=2π(75r−r3) (ii) drdV=2π(75−3r2) (iii) r = 5 cm; OR False, h = r = 5 cm
Open cylinder: 2πrh+πr2=75π, so h=2r75−r2.
(i) V=πr2h=2πr(75−r2)=2π(75r−r3).
(ii) drdV=2π(75−3r2).
(iii) drdV=0 gives r2=25, r = 5; dr2d2V=−3πr<0, so V is maximum at r = 5 cm.
OR: at r = 5, h=1075−25=5, so h = r; the statement h > r is false.
Recent studies suggest that roughly 12% of the world population is left handed. Depending upon the parents, the chances of having a left handed child are as follows : A : When both father and mother are left handed : Chances of left handed child is 24%. B : When father is right handed and mother is left handed : Chances of left handed child is 22%. C : When father is left handed and mother is right handed : Chances of left handed child is 17%. D : When both father and mother are right handed : Chances of left handed child is 9%. Assuming that P(A) = P(B) = P(C) = P(D) = 41 and L denotes the event that child is left handed. Based on the above information, answer the following questions : (i) Find P(L/C) (1) (ii) Find P(L/A) (1) (iii) Find P(A/L) (2) OR Find the probability that a randomly selected child is left handed given that exactly one of the parents is left handed. (2)
Show answer & solution
Answer: (i) 0.17 (ii) 0.76 (iii) 31; OR 0.195
(i) P(L/C) = 17% = 0.17.
(ii) P(L/A) = 1 - 0.24 = 0.76.
(iii) P(L) =41(0.24+0.22+0.17+0.09)=40.72=0.18.
P(A/L) =0.1841×0.24=0.180.06=31.
OR: exactly one parent left handed is B ∪ C, with P(B) = P(C).
P(L/B ∪ C) =41+4141(0.22)+41(0.17)=20.39=0.195.
The use of electric vehicles will curb air pollution in the long run. The use of electric vehicles is increasing every year and estimated electric vehicles in use at any time t is given by the function V : V(t)=51t3−25t2+25t−2 where t represents the time and t = 1, 2, 3.... corresponds to year 2001, 2002, 2003, ....... respectively. Based on the above information, answer the following questions : (i) Can the above function be used to estimate number of vehicles in the year 2000 ? Justify. (2) (ii) Prove that the function V(t) is an increasing function. (2)
Show answer & solution
Answer: (i) No, the year 2000 corresponds to t = 0 and V(0) = −2 < 0, which is impossible for a number of vehicles (ii) Proved.
(i) Year 2000 corresponds to t = 0. V(0) = −2, a negative number of vehicles, which is not possible; so the function cannot be used for 2000.
(ii) V′(t)=53t2−5t+25.
Its discriminant is 25−4×53×25=25−60=−35<0 and the leading coefficient 53>0.
So V′(t)>0 for all t; hence V(t) is an increasing function.
