Answers & Solutions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Putting y as x and x as y in given options, only options B satisfies the function property as follows.<\/p>\n

x = $\\frac{2y+3}{3y-2}$<\/p>\n

or 3xy – 2x = 2y+3<\/p>\n

or y(3x-2) = 2x+3<\/p>\n

or $y = \\frac{2x+3}{3x-2}$<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The number of elements in set A = 10<\/p>\n

The number of elements in set B = 9<\/p>\n

for the mapping to be onto there will be a element in set B which has 2 pre-images from set A<\/p>\n

Two elements can be selected in\u00a0$^{10}C_2 $ ways and the elements in set B can be arranged in 9! ways<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ No of onto functions =\u00a0$^{10}C_2 \\times 9!$<\/p>\n

A is the correct answer<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0Answer:\u00a06<\/b><\/p>\n

$(\\sqrt[7]{10})(\\sqrt[7]{10})^{2}…(\\sqrt[7]{10})^{n}>999$<\/p>\n

$(\\sqrt[7]{10})^{1+2+…+n}>999$<\/p>\n

$10^{\\frac{1+2+…+n}{7}}>999$<\/p>\n

For minimum value of n,<\/p>\n

$\\frac{1+2+…+n}{7}=3$<\/p>\n

1 + 2 + … + n = 21<\/p>\n

We can see that if n = 6, 1 + 2 + 3 + … + 6 = 21.<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0Answer:\u00a012<\/b><\/p>\n

Let us break this up into 2 inequations [ Let us assume x as m and y as n ]<\/p>\n

| 1 + mn | < | m + n |<\/p>\n

| m + n | < 5<\/p>\n

Looking at these expressions, we can clearly tell that the graphs will be symmetrical about the origin.<\/p>\n

Let us try out with the first quadrant and extend the results to the other quadrants.<\/p>\n

We will also consider the +X and +Y axes along with the quadrant.<\/p>\n

So, the first inequality becomes,<\/p>\n

1 + mn < m + n<\/p>\n

1 + mn – m – n < 0<\/p>\n

1 – m + mn – n < 0<\/p>\n

(1-m) + n(m-1) < 0<\/p>\n

(1-m)(1-n)\u00a0< 0<\/p>\n

(m – 1)(n – 1) < 0<\/p>\n

Let us try to plot the graph.<\/p>\n

If we consider only mn < 0, then we get<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But, we have (m – 1)(n – 1) < 0, so we need to shift the graphs by one unit towards positive x and positive y.<\/p>\n

So, we have,<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But, we are only considering the first quadrant and the +X and +Y axes. Hence, if we extend, we get the following region.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

So, if we look for only integer values, we get<\/p>\n

(0,2), (0,3),…….<\/p>\n

(0,-2), (0, -3),……<\/p>\n

(2,0), (3,0), ……<\/p>\n

(-2,0), (-3,0), …….<\/p>\n

Now, let us consider the other inequation as well, in which |x + y| < 5<\/p>\n

Since one of the values is always zero, the modulus of the other value is less than or equal to 4.<\/p>\n

Hence, we get<\/p>\n

(0,2), (0,3), (0,4)<\/p>\n

(0,-2), (0, -3), (0, -4)<\/p>\n

(2,0), (3,0), (4,0)<\/p>\n

(-2,0), (-3,0), (-4,0)<\/p>\n

Hence, a total of 12 values.<\/p>\n

5)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Case 1 : $x\\ge\\frac{40}{3}$
\nwe get 3x-20 +3x-40 =20
\n6x=80
\nx=$\\frac{80}{6}$=$\\frac{40}{3}$=13.33
\nCase 2 :$\\frac{20}{3}\\le\\ x<\\frac{40}{3}\\ $
\nwe get 3x-20+40-3x =20
\nwe get 20=20
\nSo we get x$\\in\\ \\left[\\frac{20}{3},\\frac{40}{3}\\right]$
\nCase 3 $x<\\frac{20}{3}$
\nwe get 20-3x+40-3x =20
\n40=6x
\nx=$\\frac{20}{3}$
\nbut this is not possible
\nso we get from case 1,2 and 3
\n$\\frac{20}{3}\\le\\ x\\le\\frac{40}{3}$
\nNow looking at options
\nwe can say only option C satisfies for all x .
\nHence 7<x<12.<\/p>\n

6)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

$f(x) = \\frac{x^2 + 2x – 15}{x^2 – 7x – 18}$<0<\/p>\n

$\\frac{\\left(x+5\\right)\\left(x-3\\right)}{\\left(x-9\\right)\\left(x+2\\right)}<0$<\/p>\n

We have four inflection points -5, -2, 3, and 9.<\/p>\n

For x<-5, all four terms (x+5), (x-3), (x-9), (x+2) will be negative. Hence, the overall expression will be positive. Similarly, when x>9, all four terms will be positive.<\/p>\n

When x belongs to (-2,3), two terms are negative and two are positive. Hence, the overall expression is positive again.<\/p>\n

We are left with the range (-5,-2) and (3,9) where the expression will be negative.<\/p>\n

7)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

We have\u00a0$\\mid n – 60 \\mid < \\mid n – 100 \\mid < \\mid n – 20 \\mid$.<\/p>\n

Now, the difference inside the modulus signified the distance of n from 60, 100, and 20 on the number line. This means that when the absolute difference from a number is larger, n would be further away from that number.<\/p>\n

Example: The absolute difference of n and 60 is less than that of the absolute difference between n and 20. Hence, n cannot be $\\le\\ 40$, as then it would be closer to 20 than 60, and closer on the numeb line would indicate lesser value of absolute difference.\u00a0Thus we have the condition that n>40.<\/p>\n

The absolute difference of n and 100 is less than that of the absolute difference between n and 20. Hence, n cannot be $\\le\\ 60$, as then it would be closer to 20 than 100. Thus we have the condition that n>60.<\/p>\n

The absolute difference of n and 60 is less than that of the absolute difference between n and 100. Hence, n cannot be $\\ge80$, as then it would be closer to 100 than 60. Thus we have the condition that n<80.<\/p>\n

The number which satisfy the conditions are 61, 62, 63, 64……79. Thus, a total of 19 numbers.<\/p>\n

8)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(E)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since\u00a0$x^2-y^2=20$ and x,y,z are positive integers, the only values possible are x=6 and y=4.<\/p>\n

$y^3 – 2x^2 – 4z \\geq -12$<\/p>\n

Keeping the values of x and y, we get\u00a0$z\\le1$<\/p>\n

=> z=1<\/p>\n

9)\u00a0Answer:\u00a02704<\/b><\/p>\n

Now we have\u00a0$2601\\left(1+\\frac{1}{x}\\right)\\left(1+\\frac{1}{y}\\right)=2601\\left(\\frac{xy+y+x+1}{xy}\\right)$<\/p>\n

Now we know that x+y=102. Substituting it in the above equation<\/p>\n

$2601\\left(\\frac{xy+y+x+1}{xy}\\right)=2601\\left(\\frac{103}{xy}+1\\right)$<\/p>\n

Maximum value of xy\u00a0 can be found out by AM>= GM relationship<\/p>\n

$\\ \\frac{\\ x+y}{2}\\ge\\ \\sqrt{xy}\\ or\\ \\ \\sqrt{\\ xy}\\le\\ 51\\ or\\ xy\\le\\ 2601$<\/p>\n

Hence the maximum value of “xy” is 2601. Substituting in the above equation we get<\/p>\n

$2601\\left(\\ \\frac{\\ 103+2601}{2601}\\right)=2704$<\/p>\n

10)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now\u00a0$\\frac{x}{\\sqrt{\\ 1+x^4}}=\\ \\frac{\\ 1}{\\sqrt{\\ \\ \\frac{\\ 1+x^4}{x^2}}}=\\frac{1}{\\sqrt{\\ \\frac{1}{x^2}+x^2}}$<\/p>\n

Applying A.M>= G.M.<\/p>\n

$\\frac{\\left(\\frac{1}{x^2}+x^2\\right)}{2}\\ge\\ 1\\ or\\ \\ \\frac{1}{x^2}+x^2\\ge\\ 2$ Substituting we get the maximum possible value of the equation as\u00a0$\\frac{1}{\\sqrt{\\ 2}}$<\/p>\n
