Prove that the greatest integer function f : R rarrR given by f(x) =[x]is neither one-one nor onto, where [x] denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to x.

Answer»

Solution :We have `F(0.5) = [0.5] = 0` and
f(0.75) = [0.75] = 0
THEREFORE` Both 0.5 and 0.75 are mapped to 0
`therefore` f is not one-one
Since the value of f(X) are all INTEGERS, non-integer real numbers can.t have pre-images.
`therefore` f is not onto.

Evaluate the following: int_(0)^(pi)(1)/(3+2 sin x+cosx)dx

Answer»

Solution :LET `I=int_(0)^(pi)(1)/(3+2 sin x+cos x)dx`
Put `TAN.(x)/(2)=t THEREFORE x =2 tan^(-1)t`
`therefore dx=(2dt)/(1+t^(2))and sin x=(2t)/(1+t^(2)), cos x=(1-t^(2))/(1+t^(2))`
When x = 0 , t = TNA 0 = 0
When `x=pi, t=tan.(pi)/(2)=oo`
`therefore""I=int_(0)^(oo)(1)/(3+2((2)/(1+t^(2)))+((1-t^(2))/(1+t^(2)))).(2dt)/(1+t^(2))`
`=int_(0)^(oo)(1+t^(2))/(3+3t^(2)+4t+1-t^(2)).(2dt)/(1+t^(2))`
`=2int_(0)^(oo)(1)/(2t^(2)+4t+4)dt`
`=(2)/(2)int_(0)^(oo)(1)/(t^(2)+2t+2)dt=int_(0)^(oo)(1)/((t^(2)+2t+1)+1)dt`
`=int_(0)^(oo)(1)/((t+1)^(2)+(1)^(2))dt=(1)/(1)[tan^(-1)((t+1)/(1))]_(0)^(oo)`
`=[tan^(-1)(t+1)]_(0)^(oo)`
`=tan^(-1)oo-tan^(-1)1`
`=(pi)/(2)-(pi)/(4)=(pi)/(4).`

Let T be the line passing through the points P(-2, 7) and Q(2, -5). Let F_(1) be the set of all pairs of circles (S_(1),S_(2)) such that T is tangent to S_(1) at P and tangent to S_(2) at Q, and also such that S_(1) and S_(2) touch each other at a point , say M. Let E_(1) be the set representing the locus of M as the pair (S_(1),S_(2)) varies in F_(1). Let the set of all straight line segment joining a pair of disntinct point of E_(1) and passing through the point R(1, 1) be F_(2). Let E_(2) be the set of the mid-points of the line segments in the set F_(2). Then , which of the following statement (s) is (are) TRUE?

Answer»

The point (-2, 7) lies in `E_(1)`
The point `((4)/(5),(7)/(5))` does NOT lie in `E_(2)`
The point `((1)/(2),1)` lies in `E_(2)`
The point `(0,(3)/(2))`does NOT lie in `E_(1)`

Solution :It is given that T is tangents to `S_(1) and S_(2)` at Q and `S_(1) and S_(2)` touch externally at M.

`THEREFORE MN=NP=NQ`
`therefore` Locus ofM ISA CIRCLE having PQ as its diameter of circle.
`therefore` Equation of circle
`(X-2) (x+2)+(y+5)(y-7)=0`
`rArrx^(2)+y^(2)-2y-39=0`
Hence, `E_(1):x^(2)+y^(2)-2y-39=0,xnepm2`
Locus of mid-point of chord (h,k) of the circle E_(1) is
`xh+yk-(y+k)-39=h^(2)+k^(2)-2k-39`
`rArrxh+yk-y-k=h^(2)+k^(2)-2k`
since, chord is passing through (1, 1). lt brgt `therefore` Locus of mid-point of chord (h,k) is
`h+k-1-k=h^(2)+k^(2)-2k`
` rArr h^(2) +k^(2) - 2k -h +1=0`
Locus is `E_(2): x^(2)+y^(2)-x-2y +1 =0`
Now, after checking options, (a) and (d) are correct.

Separate the intervals of monotonocity for the following function: (a) f(x) =-2x^(3)-9x^(2)-12x+1 (b) f(x)=x^(2)e^(-x) (c ) f(x) =sinx+cosx,x in (0,2pi) (d) f(x) =3cos^(4)x+cosx,x in (0,2 pi) (e ) f(x)=(log_(e)x)^(2)+(log_(e)x)

Answer»


Solution :(a) `f(X)=22x^(3)-9x^(2)-12x+1`
`f(x)=-6X^(2)-18x-12`
`=-6(x+2)(x+1)`
or `f'(x)gt0 if x in (-2,-1)`
and `f'(x)lt0, if x in (-oo.-2)cup(-1,oo)`
Thus f(x) is increasing for x `in` (-2,1) and
f(X)is decreasing for x `in (-oo,2)cup(-1,oo)`
(b) Let y=f(x)=`x^(2)e^(-x)`
`therefore (dy)/(dx)=2xe^(-x)-x^(2)e^(-x)`
`=e^(-x)(2x-x^(2))`
`=e^(-x)x(2-x)`
f(x) is increasing if `f(x)gt0 or x (2-x)gt0 or x in (0,2)`
f(x) is decreasing if `f'(x)lt0 or x(2-x)lt0`
or `x in (-oo,0)cup(2,oo)`
(c ) we have f'(x) =cosx -sin x

f(x) is increasing if `f'(x) gt0 or cos x gt sin x `
or `x in (0,pi//4)cup ((5pi)/(4),2PI)` , (see the graph)
f(x) is decreasing if `f'(x) lt 0 or cos x lt sinx `
or`x in (pi//4,(5pi)/(4))`
(d) Given f(x) =`3cos^(4)x+10 cos^(3)x+6cos^(2)x-3`
`therefore f'(x) =12 cos^(3)x(-sin x)+30 cos^(2)x(-sin x) + 12 cosx-(-sinx)`
`=-3 sin 2x(2 cos^(2) x+5 cos x +2)`
`=-3 sin 2x(2 cos x+1)(cos x+2)`
`f'(x) =0 rarrr sin 2x =0 rarr 0,(pi)/(2), pi`
or `2cos x +1 =0 rarr x=(2pi)/(3)`
as `cos x+ 2 ne 0`
sign scheme of f'(x) is as follow
So , f (x) DECREASE on `(0,(pi)/(2))cup((2pi)/(3),pi)` and incerase on `((pi)/(2),(2pi)/(3))`
(e ) f(X) =`(log_(e)x)^(2)+(log_(e)x),xgt0`
`therefore f'(x) =2(log_(e)x)/(x)+(1)/(x)=(2log_(e)x+1)/(x)`
f(X) increasing when 2 `log_(e)x+1gt0`
or `log_(e)xgt-(1)/(2)`
or `xgte^(-1)/(2)`
or f(x) increases when`x in ((1)/sqrt(e),oo)`
or f(x) decreases when x `in (0,(1)/sqrt(e))`
