Question 21. Show that the function f: R→ R, defined as f(x) = x², is neither one-
one nor onto.
Solution: f(x) = x²
Checking for ONE-ONE
let x1 and x2 are be any two real numbers.
f(x1) = x1² and f(x2) = x2²
Now f(x1) = f(x2)
 x1² = x2²
 x1 = x2, x1 = − x2
 Since x1 does not have a unique image so f(x) is not one-one. 1
Checking for ONTO
Let f(x) = y such that y ∈ R
 x2 = y
 x = ±√y
Note that y is a real number, so it can be negative also
 f(x) is not an onto function. 1
(Note: Students can also use some illustrations to show f(x) neither
one-one nor onto.)
OR Find the value of: tan-1√3 − sec-1(−2)

 We know that the range of the principal value branch of tan-1 is
−π π 𝟏
( 2 , 2)

⸫ tan-1√3 = /3

Let sec-1(−2) = y. Then, sec y = −2 = −sec(/3)

We know that the range of the principal value branch of sec-1 is 𝟐
π
[0, π] − { }

Question 22. 1
Construct a 3 × 2 matrix whose elements are given by aij = 2 | i – 3j | .

Where A = [a21 a22 ]

Now it is given that aij = 2 | i – 3j | 𝟐

Hence the required matrix is

a11 = 1 a12 = 5/2

1 5/2
a21 = ½ a22 = 2 => A = [1/2 2 ]
0 3/2 1
a31 = 0 a32 = 3/2

Question 24. Verify that the function y = a cosx + b sinx , where a,b ∈ R is a
d2 y
solution of the differential equation dx2 + y = 0
Solution: Given: y = a cosx + b sinx …(1)
Diff. w.r.t. ‘x’ , and we get
dy
= − a sinx + b cosx
dx 𝟏
𝟐
Again differentiate (1) w.r.t. ‘x’, we get
d2 y
= −a cosx − b sinx …..(2)

𝟏
𝟐
Now, substitute (1) and (2) in the given differential equation, and we
get the following:

d2 y
L.H.S = + yx
dx2
= (−a cosx − b sinx) + (a cosx + b sinx)
= −a cosx − b sinx + a cosx + b sinx
= 0 = R.H.S 1
As L.H.S = R.H.S, the given function is the solution of the
corresponding differential equation.
OR Find the general solution of the differential equation
Question 24. y log y dx – x dy = 0
Solution: Since y log y dx – x dy = 0,
therefore separating the variables, the given differential equation can
be written as
 dy dy

Question 25. An urn contains 10 black and 5 white balls. Two balls are drawn from
the urn one after the other without replacement. What is the
probability that both drawn balls are black?
Solution:
Total number of balls = 10 black balls + 5 red balls = 15 balls

Let A be the event of drawing a black ball in first draw and B be the
events of drawing a black ball in second draw.
𝟏
10 2
P(A) = Probability of getting a black ball in the first draw = 15 = 3 𝟐

As the ball is not replaced after the first throw,

⸫ P(B/A) = Probability of getting another black ball in the second 𝟏

8 4
draw = 14 = 7 𝟐
Since the two balls are drawn without replacement, the two draws are
not independent.

P(both balls are black) = P(A) × P(B/A)

2 4 8
Now, the probability of getting both balls red = × = 1

Question 26. Let R be a relation on the set A of ordered pairs of positive integers
defined by (x, y) R (u, v) if and only if xv = yu. Show that R is an
equivalence relation.
Solution:
Clearly, (x, y) R (x, y), ∀ (x, y) ∈ A
 Since xy = yx 1
This shows that R is reflexive.

Further, (x, y) R (u, v)

=> xv = yu
=> uy = vx 1
=> (u, v) R (x, y) ∀ (x, y), (u, v) ∈ A
This shows that R is symmetric.

Similarly, (x, y) R (u, v) and (u, v) R (a, b)

 xv = yu and ub = va
x u u a
 = v and = b
y v
x a
 y
= b
 xb = ya 1
Hence (x, y) R (a, b) ∀ (x, y), (u, v) (a, b) ∈ A
Thus, R is transitive.
Thus, R is an equivalence relation.

Question 29. Find the intervals in which the function 𝑓 is given by (𝑥)=
–2x3 –9x2 –12x +1 is strictly increasing or strictly decreasing.
Solution: Given function: f(x) = –2x3 –9x2 –12x +1

f'(x) = –6x2 –18x – 12 = –6(x2 + 3x + 2)

𝟏
f'(x) = –6(x + 2)(x + 1) ,.......(1) 𝟐

Now for increasing or decreasing, f'(x) = 0

–6(x + 2)(x + 1) =0 1
x + 2 = 0 or x + 1 = 0
x = –2 or x = –1
Therefore, we have sub-intervals are (–∞,–2), (–2, –1) and (–1, ∞)

For interval (–∞,–2), picking x = –3, from equation (1),

f' (x) = (–ve)(–ve)(–ve) = (–ve) < 0
Therefore, f is strictly decreasing in (–∞,–2) 𝟏
𝟐
For interval (–2, –1), picking x = –1.5 , from equation (1),
f'(x) = (–ve)(+ve)( –ve) = (+ve) > 0
𝟏
Therefore, f is strictly increasing in (–2, –1).
𝟐
For interval (–1, ∞), picking x = 4 , from equation (1),
f' (x) = (–ve)(+ve)(+ve) = (–ve) < 0
Therefore, is strictly decreasing in (–1, ∞). 𝟏
So, f is strictly decreasing in (–∞, –2) and (–1, ∞). 𝟐
f is strictly increasing in (–2, –1).

Question 35. Solve the following problem graphically:
Minimise and Maximise Z = 5x + 10y
Subject to the constraints: x + 2y ≤ 120
x + y ≥ 60
x – 2y ≥ 0
x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
Solution: Z = 5x + 10y. …(1)
x + 2y  120 …(2)
x + y  60. …(3)
x – 2y  0 …(4)
x0,y0 …(5)

First of all, let us graph the feasible region of the system of linear
inequalities (2) to (5).
Let Z= 5x + 10y ....(1)
Converting inequalities to equalities
x + 2y = 120
X 0 120
Y 60 0

Points are (0, 60), (120,0)

Now put (0, 0) in inequation (2),

we find 0 ≤ 120, which is true. 𝟏
𝟐
Therefore area lies towards the origin from this line.

x + y = 60
x 0 60
y 60 0

Points are (0, 60), (60, 0)

𝟏
Now put (0, 0) in inequation (3), 𝟐
we find 0 ≥ 60, which is False.
Therefore area lies away from the origin from this line.

x – 2y = 0

X 0 20 40
 y 0 10 20

Points are (0,0),(20,10),(40,20)

Now put (1, 0) in inequation (4),
𝟏
we find 1 ≥ 0, which is true. 𝟐
Therefore area lies towards (1, 0) origin from this line.

region is bounded. The coordinates of the corner points A, B, C and 𝟐
D are (60, 30), (40, 20), (60, 0) and (120, 0) respectively.

We now find the minimum and maximum value of Z.

From the table, we find that the minimum value of Z is 300 at the
point B (60, 0) of the feasible region.

The maximum value of Z on the feasible region occurs at the two

corner points C (60, 30) and D (120, 0) and it is 600 in each case.

Question 36.
P(x) = - 6x² + 120x + 25000 ( in ₹ ) is the total profit function of a
company, where x denotes the production of the company.
Based on the above information answer the following:
(i)Find the profit of the company when the production is 3units. (1)
(ii) Find P’(5). (1)
(iii) Find the production, when the profit is maximum. (2)
Solution: (i) When x = 3
P(3) = –6(3)2 + 120(3) + 25000
= – 54 + 360 + 25000
= ₹ 25306 1
(ii) We have, P(x) = –6x² + 120x + 25000 …(1)
Differentiating equation (1) w.r.t. x
P’(x) = –12x + 120 …(2)
⸫ P’(5) = –12(5) + 120 = 60 1

(iii) We have, P(x) = –6x² + 120x + 25000 …(1)

Differentiating equation (1) w.r.t. x
P’(x) =–12x + 120 …(2)
For maximum or minimum value of P(x), P’(x) = 0 we have

–12x + 120 = 0
–12x = –120
i.e. x = 10
Differentiating equation (2) w.r.t. x
P’’(x) = –12
Now ,
At x = 10 P’’(x) = –12 = –ve
⇒ P(x) has maximum value at x = 10 2
