6. Let p and q be two positive numbers such that p + q = 2 and p4 + q4 = 272.

Then p and q are roots of the equation:

(a) x2 – 2x + 2 = 0 (b) x2 – 2x + 8 = 0

(c) x2 – 2x + 136 = 0 (d) x2 – 2x + 16 = 0

Ans. (d)

Solution:

44 4 2 2 2 2p q p 4 4pq p q 6p q

272 = 16 – 4pq(4 – 2pq) – 6p2q2

2p2q2 – 16pq – 256 = 0

pq = – 8 or 16

p, q > 0, so pq = 16

Required quadratic equation is

x2 – 2x + 16 = 0

7. The system of linear equations

3x – 2y – kz = 10

2x – 4y – 2z = 6

x + 2y – z = 5m

is inconsistent if:

(a) 4

k 3, m5

(b) k 3, m R (c) 4

k 3, m5

(d) 4

k 3, m5

Ans. (d)

Solution:

Here

3 2 k

2 4 2 0

1 2 1

3(4 + 4) + 2(–2 + 2) – k(k + 4) = 0

24 0 8k 0 k 3

Now,

8. A scientific committee is to be formed from 6 Indians and 8 foreigners, which includes at least

2 Indians and double the number of foreigners as Indians. Then the number of ways, the

committee can be formed, is:

(a) 560 (b) 1050 (c) 1625 (d) 575

Ans. (c)

Solution:

Indians = 6, Foreigners = 8

According to questions

The no. of ways to form the committee are

(2I, 4F) or (3I, 6F) or (4I, 8F)

6 8 6 8 6 82 4 3 6 4 8C C C C C C

= 15 70 20 28 15 1 = 1625

9. The equation of the plane passing through the point (1, 2, – 3) and perpendicular to the planes

3x + y – 2z= 5 and 2x – 5y – z = 7, is:

(a) 3x – 10y – 2z+ 11 = 0 (b) 6x – y – 2z – 2 = 0

(c) 6x – 5y + 2z+ 10 = 0 (d) 11x + y + 17z + 38 = 0

Ans. (d)

Solution:

The given planes are 3x + y – 2z = 5 ….(1)

2x – 5y – z = 7 ….(2)

Since the required plane passes through (1, 2, – 3)

So equation of this plane is

a(x – 1) + b(y – 2) + c(z +3) = 0 …(3)

Now this plane (3) is to the planes (1) & (2)

So, 3a + b – 2c = 0 & 2a – 5b – c = 0

a b c

11 1 17

So equation of plane is 11(x –1) + (y – 2) + 17(2 + 3) = 0

11x + y + 17z + 38 = 0

10. If the tangent to the curve y = x3 at the point P(t, t3) meets the curve again at Q,

then the ordinate of the point which divides PQ internally in the ratio 1 : 2 is:

(a) –2t3 (b) 2t3 (c) 0 (d) –t3

Ans. (a)

Solution:

Curve is y = x3 ….(1)

So equation of tangent at (t, t3)

(y – t3) = 3t2(x – t) …(2)

It meets again the curve at Q

So solving (1) & (2) we get

x = – 2t Q = (–2t, –8t3)

Now by section formula ordinate = 3 32t 8t

1 2

= 36t

3

= –2t3

2 .x 1

Then the composition function f(g(x)) is:

(a) neither one-one nor onto (b) onto but not one-one

(c) both one-one and onto (d) one-one but not onto

Ans. (d)

Solution:

Here f: R R, f x 2x 1

and g:

6. If the least and the largest real values of , for which the equation

z + z 1 2i 0 z C and i 1 has a solution, are p and q respectively, then 2 24 p q

Ans. 10

Solution:

Let z = x + iy, x, R

z z 1 2i 0.

2 2x i y 2 x 1 y 0.

Solution:

Let f(x) = 4 1

sinx 1 sin x

where sin x 0, 1

2 2 13sinx sinx 1 sinx

sin x sinx3 1 sinx2 2

So least value of is 9.

8. Let M be any 3 3 matrix with entries from the set (0, 1, 2). The maximum number of such

matrices, for which the sum of diagonal elements of MTM is seven is ___________ .

Ans. 540

Solution:

Let ij 3 3a

3 3

T 2r ij

i 1 j 1

T M .M a 7

So there will be two cases.

Case I: Any seven ija s are 1 and remaining two elements are zero.

Number of such matrices M = 9

367|2

Case II: Any one elements is 2, any three elements are 1 and reaming elements are 0.

Number of such matrices = 9

5041 3 5

Total number of possible matrices M = 540.

10. Let three vectors a, b and c be such that c is coplanar with a and b, a. c 7 and b is

perpendicular to c, where a i j k and b 2i k , then the value of 2

2 a b c is ____ .

Ans. 75

Solution:

Let c a b a, b and c are coplanar

a. c 7, b. c 0 and a. b 1

So 2
