Let R be a relation on the set of all natural numbers given by a R `hArr` a divides `b^(2)` .Which of the following properties does R satisfy? I . Reflexivity II. Symmetry III. TransitivityA. I onlyB. III onlyC. I and III onlyD. I and II only

Answer» Correct Answer - A
(I) This relation is reflexive relation because every natural no. divides square of itself
a R a `hArr` a divides `a^(2)`
(II) not symmetric eg. 5 R 10 `cancel implies 5` Divide 100
But 10 R 5 `cancel implies` 10 Divide 25
Not transitivity for example
if 8 R 4 & 4 R 2 `cancelimplies` 8 R 2
only (I)Option

Let a `gt` 0 be real number. Then the limit `lim_(xto2) (a^(x)+a^(3-x)-(a^(2)+a))/(a^(3-x)-a^(x//2))` is-A. 2 log aB. `-(4)/(3)` aC. `(a^(2)+a)/(2)`D. `(2)/(3)(1-a)`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
`underset(xto2)lim(a^(x)+a^(3-x)-(a^(2)+a))/(a^(3-x)-a^(x//2))((0)/(0))`
Apply L hospital rule
`underset(xto2)lim(a^(x)lna-a^(3-x)lna)/(-a^(3-x)lna-(1)/(2)a^(x//2lna))`
`(a^(2)lna-alna)/(-alna-(a)/(2)lna)=(a^(2)-a)/(-(3a)/(2))=(2)/(3)(1-a)`

The number of real solutions of the equation 2 sin 3x + sin 7x - 3 = 0 which lie in the interval `[-2pi , 2pi]` isA. 1B. 2C. 3D. 4

Answer» Correct Answer - B
only possible when sin 3x = 1 & sin 7x = 1
sin 3x = 1
sin3x = sin(4n+ 1) `(pi)/(2) n in I`
` 3 x = (4n+1)(pi)/(2)implies x=(4n+1)(pi)/(6)`
`sin 7x= sin(4m+1)(pi)/(2), m in I`
`x=(4m+1)(pi)/(14)`
for common solution
`(4n+1)(pi)/(6)=(4m+1)(pi)/(14)`
Solving these `1=3m-7n`
First solution ios m=5,n=2
Second solution is m=12,n=5
So two solutions are possible

Consider the set `A_(n)` of point (x,y) such that `0 le x le n, 0 le y le n` where n,x,y are integers. Let `S_(n)` be the set of all lines passing through at least two distinct points from `A_(n)`. Suppose we choose a line l at random from `S_(n)`. Let `P_(n)` be the probability that l is tangent to the circle `x^(2)+y^(2)=n^(2)(1+(1-(1)/(sqrt(n)))^(2))`. Then the limit `lim_(n to oo)P_(n)` is

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Equation of line passing through `(x_(1),y_(1)) " and " (x_(2),y_(2))` is
`(y-y_(1))/(x-x_(1))=(y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1))`
`implies (x_(2)= - x_(1))y +(y_(1)-y_(2))x+y_(1)(x_(1)-x_(2))+x_(1)(y_(2)-y_(1))=0`
`implies ax+by+c=0 " where a, b, c " inI`
`a=x_(2)-x_(1),b=y_(1)-y_(2),c=y_(1)(x_(1)-x_(2))+x_(1)(y_(2)-y_(1))`
square of distance of (0,0) from `((c)/(sqrt(a^(2)+b^(2))))^(2)=(c6(2))/(a^(2)+b^(2))=` rational
Case -1: if n is not perfect square
And square of radius `=n^(2)(1+(1-(1)/(sqrt(n)))^(2))`= irrational
`implies r^(2) ne(c^(2))/(a^(2)+b^(2))s`
`implies ax +by+x=0` never be tangent to given circle
`implies lim_(n to oo) P_(n)=0`
Case - 2: if n is perfect square
In this case number of tangents passing through two points from given set are few, but total number of lines are in much quantity when n approaches to infinite .
`implies lim_(n to oo) P_(n)=0`

The number of solution x of the equation `sin (x+x^(2))- sin(x^(2))= sin x` in the interval [2,3] is

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`2 cos(x+(2x^(2))/(2)).sin ""(x)/(2)= 2 sin ""(x)/(2). cos ""(x)/(2)`
`implies sin ""(x)/(2)[cos((x+2x^(2))/(2))= cos "" (x)/(2)]=0`
`sin ""(x)/(2)=0 " " or " "2 sin((2x+2x^(2))/(4)).sin((2x^(2))/(4))=0`
`(x)/(2)=0,pi,2pi " "or " "sin((x+x^(2))/(2))=0 " "or" " sin ""(x^(2))/(2)=0`
`X=0,2pi,4pi " " or " " (x+x^(2))/(2)=0,pi,2pi`
`(x+x^(2))/(2)=pi " " x^(2)=2pi`
`implies x^(2)+x-2pi=0" " impliesx=sqrt(2pi)`
`x=(-1pmsqrt(1+8pi))/(2)" "2 gtsqrt(2pi) lt3`
`sqrt(1+8pi)~~sqrt(25.14)`
`" "~~5.2`
`:. x=(5.2-1)/(2)=(4.2)/(2)=2.1`
`:.` total number of solution lies between (2,3)=2

The number of different possible values for the sum x+y+z, where x,y,z are real numbers such that `x^(4)+4y^(4)+16z^(4)+64=32 xyz` is(A) 1 (B) 2 (C) 4 (D) 8A. 1B. 2C. 4D. 8

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Applying Am`ge`gm.
`(x^(4)+4y^(4)+16z^(4)+64)/(4) ge(4^(6)x^(4)y^(4)z^(4))^(1//4)`
`x^(4)+4y^(4)+16z^(4)+64ge32|xyz|`
So equal when each term is equal
`:. X^(4)+4y^(4)=16z^(4)=64`
`impliesx=pm2sqrt(2)`
`y=pm2`
`x= pmsqrt(2)`
For x.y.z
For `X^(4)+4y^(4)+16z^(4)_64=32xyz`
Either each of x,y,z is (+)ve`to` 1 case/
Or two of x,y,z are (-)ve `to ` 3 cases
`:.` 4 cases of different (x,y,z) triplets
`:.` 4 possible x+y+z values (as `x ne y ne z`)

Let m (respectively, n) be the number of 5-digit integers obtained by using the digits 1,2,3,4 ,5 with repetitions (respectively, without repetitions) such that the sum of any two adjacent digits is odd. Then `m/n` is equal toA. 9B. 12C. 15D. 18

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Digits are 1,2,3,4,5
`{:(,"Even digits = 2,4",,,"number of Even digits = 2"),(,"Totalmarks = 2375",,,"number of Odd digits = 3"):}`
Sum of any 2 adhacent digits is odd
`rArr` Odd and even digits will alternate
Case I For n, Repetition is not allowed
`rArrOEOEO` is the only possibility of arrangement of digits, Where O=Odd digit, Where O = Odd digit, E = Even digit.
So number of Arrangements `n=3/Oxx2/Exx2/Oxx1/Exx1/O=12`
Case II For m, Repetition is allowed ltbrlt `rArr` Tow possioilities
(a) OEOEO
Number of such arrangements `=3/Oxx2/Exxx3/Oxx2/Exx3/O=108`
(b) EOEOE
Number of such arrangements `=2/Exx3/Oxx2/Exx3/Oxx2/E=72`
So m = 108 + 72 = 180
`m/n=180/12=15`
