Explanation:

(09: 30 + 16 : 40) (mod 24) = 26 : 10 (mod 24) = 2 : 10

12. (d) [-7, 3]

Explanation:

|x + 2| ≤ 5
⇒ -5 ≤ x + 2 ≤ 5
⇒ -7 ≤ x ≤ 3

⇒ x ∈ [-7, -3]

13. (a) 8 m/sec, 7 m/sec

Explanation:

Suppose A covers 400 m in t seconds

Then, B covers 385 m in (t + 5) seconds
(t+5)
∴ B covers 400 m = { 385
× 400} sec

Also, B covers 400 m = (t + 7 1
) sec

(7t+50)
= 7
sec
80(t+5) 7t+50
∴ =

∴80(t + 5) = 11(7t + 50)

⇒ (80t - 77t) = (550 - 400)

⇒ 3t = 150
⇒ t = 50

∴ A's speed
= m/sec
400

50

= 8 m/sec
∴ B's speed

= m/sec

= 7 m/sec

14. (c) 60
Explanation:

Here the objective function is given by:

F = 4x + 6y

Corner points Z = 4x +6 y
(0, 2) 12 (Min.)

(3, 0) 12 (Min.)
(6, 0) 24
(6, 8) 72 (Max.)

(0, 5) 30

Maximum of F - Minimum of F = 72 - 12 = 60

15. (d) a function to be optimized

Explanation:

A Linear programming problem is a linear function (also known as an objective function) subjected to certain constraints
for which we need to find an optimal solution (i.e. either a maximum/minimum value) depending on the requirement of
the problem.
From the above definition, we can clearly say that the Linear programming problem's objective is to either
maximize/minimize a given objective function, which means to optimize a function to get an optimum solution.

I = ∫
x(1+log x)

Put 1 + log x = t
1
⇒ dx = dt

⇒ I = log |t| + C
I = log (1 + log x) + C

18. (d) Irregular

Explanation:

Irregular

19. (b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
Explanation:

Given A and B are square matrices of the same order, so, A'BA is defined.
Let B be symmetric, then B' = B.
Now, (A'BA)' = A'B'(A')' = A'BA ⇒ A'BA is symmetric.
∴ Assertion is true.

Let B be skew-symmetric, then B' = -B.

Now, (A'BA)' = A'B'(A')' = A'(-B)A = -A'BA
⇒ A'BA is skew-symmetric.
∴ Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

∴ Option (Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A) is the correct answer.

20. (d) A is false but R is true.

Explanation:

When x = 1, then y = (1)3 - (1)3 - 1 + 2 = 1

= 3x2 - 2x - 1 ⇒
dy dy
∴
dx dx
∣
∣
=0
x=1

∴ Equation of tangent at point (1, 1) is

y - 1 = 0(x - 1) ⇒ y = 1
Solving with the curve, x3 - x2 - x + 2 = 1
⇒ x3 - x2 - x + 1 = 0
⇒ (x - 1)(x2 - 1) = 0 ⇒ = 1, 1, -1 [here, 1 is repeated root]
∴ Tangent meets the curve again at x = -1

∴ Assertion is false, Reason is true.

25. We have, 5! = 120, 6! = 720, 7! =5040 etc.

In fact units digit in n! for n ≥ 5 is 0. Therefore, units digit in 183! is 0. Consequently, units digit in 183! + 3183 is same
as the units digit in 3183.
Now, 32 = 9 ≡ -1 (mod 10) and, 3183 = (32)91 × 3

∴ 32 ≡ -1 (mod 10)
⇒ (32)91 ≡ (-1)91 (mod 10)
⇒ (32)91 ≡ -1 (mod 10)
⇒ (32)91 × 3 ≡ -3 (mod 10)
⇒ (32)91 × 3 ≡ 7 (mod 10)
⇒ 3183 ≡ 7 (mod 10)
∴ Units digit in 3183 is 7.
Hence, the units digit in 183! + 3183 is 7

32. Let x and y be the number of bikes of model X and Y respectively, then the problem can be formulated as an [Link]
follows:
Maximize Z = 1000x + 600y subject to constraints
6x + 10y ≤ 450 (man hours constraint)
i.e. 3x + 5y ≤ 225
2000x + 1000 ≤ 80000 (handling and marketing constraints)
i.e. 2x + y ≤ 80
x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0 (non-negativity constraints)
Draw the lines 3x + 5y = 225 and 2x + y = 80 and shade the region satisfied by the above inequalities.

The feasible region OABC is convex and bounded.

The corner points are O(0, 0), A(40, 0), B(25, 30) and C(0, 45).
Now, let us give some value to Z say 12000 and draw a dotted line 1000x + 600y = 12000 which is iso-profit line. Move
this line parallel to itself over the feasible region.
It passes through all corner points one by one. The farthest corner point it crosses is B(25, 30) which gives us the optimal
solution.
Z = 1000 × 25 + 600 × 30 i.e. Z = 43000.
Hence, 25 bikes of model X and 30 bikes of model X should be manufactured to obtain maximum profit of ₹ 43000

The shaded region in the diagram represent the feasible region.

The corner points are A(10, 0), B(5, 3) and C(0, 8)
At the corner point the value of Z = 150x + 200y
At (10, 0) Z = 1500
At B( 5, 3) Z = 150 × 5 + 200 × 3
= 750 + 600 = 1350
At C(0, 8) Z = 1600
As the feasible region is unbounded, we draw the graph of the half-plane.
150x + 200y < 1350
3x + 4y < 27
There is no point common with the feasible region, therefore, Z has minimum value.
Minimum value of Z is ₹ 1350 and it occurs at the point B(5, 3).
Hence, the labour cost is ₹ 1350 when P works for 5 days and Q works for 3 days.

34. Consider the line x + 2y = 8. We observe that the shaded region and the origin are on the same side of the line x + 2y = 8
and (0, 0) satisfies the linear constraint x + 2y ≤ 8. So, we must have one inequations as x + 2y ≤ 8.

Now, consider the line 2x + y = 2. We find that the shaded region and the origin are on the opposite sides of the line 2x +
y = 2 and (0, 0) does not satisfy the inequation 2x + y ≥ 2. So, the second inequations is 2x + y ≥ 2.
Finally, consider the line x - y = 1. We observe that the shaded region and the origin are on the same side of line x - y =
1. We observe that the shaded region and the origin are on the same side of line x - y = 1 and (0, 0) satisfies x - y ≥ 1.
So, the third constraint is x - y ≥ 1.
We also notice that the shaded region is above x-axis and is on the right side of y-axis. So, we must have x ≥ 0 and y
≥ 0. Thus, the linear inequations corresponding to the given solution set are
x + 2y ≤ 8, 2x + y ≥ 2, x - y ≤ 1, x ≥ 0, y ≤ 0
