8. Answer (2) 11. Answer (3)


bx2 + cx + a = 0 Coeff. of x = – 7
Roots are imaginary c2 – 4ab < 0 Constant term = 6
f(x) = 3b2x2 + 6bcx + 2c2  The quadratic eqaution is x2 – 7x + 6 = 0

D = 36b2c2 – 24b2c2 = 12b2c2  x = 1, 6

∵ 3b2 > 0 12. Answer (4)


Let f(x) = 2x3 + 3x + k
 ⎛ D ⎞
f (x)  ⎜  ⎟ f (x) = 6x2 + 3 > 0,  xR

 No real k exists such that equation has two
Now c2 – 4ab < 0 distinct roots in [0, 1].
c2 < 4ab 13. Answer (1)
–c2 > – 4ab ∵ The equation x2 + 2x + 3 = 0 has complex roots
 f(x) > – 4ab. and coefficients of both equations are real.

 x = – or 2  = –2
Thus,  = –2, then  = – a10 – 2a8 10  10  (8  8 )
The value of 
 = –, then  = –2 where 3 =1 2a9 2(9  9 )

p(x) = 0  (a – a1)x2 + (b – b1)x + (c – c1) 15. Answer (4)
Let p(x) = 1x2 + 2x + 3 x2 – 5x + 5 = 1
p(–1) = 0  1 –2 + 3 = 0 …(i)  x = 1, 4
p(–1) = 0  – 21 + 2 = 0 …(ii) or x2 – 5x + 5 = – 1
p(–2) = 2 41 – 22 + 3 = 2 …(iii)  x = 2, 3

(ii)  2 + (iii) or x2 + 4x – 60 = 0

3 = 2  x = –10, 6
 x = 3 will be rejected as L.H.S. becomes –1
1 = 2
So, sum of value of x = 1 + 4 + 2 – 10 + 6 = 3
2 = 4

170. Answer (3) Given f(x) = (x – 1)2 + 1


 y = (x – 1)2 + 1
R is not an equivalence relation because 0 R 1 but
 (x – 1)2 = y – 1
1 R 0 , S is an equivalence relation.
171. Answer (2) ⇒ x  1 y  1

 f–1(x) = 1  x  1
We have, f(x) = (x + 1)2 – 1, x  – 1
Statement-1 :
 f(x) = 2 (x + 1)  0 for x  – 1
f(x) = f–1(x)
 f(x) is one-one
 (x – 1)2 + 1 = 1  x  1
Since co-domain of the given function is not given,
hence it can be considered as R, the set of reals  (x – 1)4 = (x – 1)
and consequently R is not onto.  (x – 1) ((x – 1)3 – 1) = 0
Hence f is not bijective statement-2 is false. After solving
Also f(x) = (x + 1)2 – 1  –1 for x  – 1  x = 1, 2
 Rf = [–1, )  Statement-1 is true.
Clearly f(x) = f –1(x) at x = 0 and x = – 1. Statement-2 :
Statement-1 is true. f–1(x) = 1  x  1
172. Answer (2)  Statement-2 is also true.
f(x) = x3 + 5x + 1 But statement-2 is a correct explanation of
f (x) = 3x2 +5>0xR statement 1.

Hence f(x) is monotonic increasing. Therefore it is 175. Answer (1)


one-one. 176. Answer (3)
Also it onto on R –3(x – [x])2 + 2[x – [x]) + a2 = 0
Hence it one-one and onto R. 3 {x}2 – 2{x} – a2 = 0

 y=2–x
ln y = – ln x + c ...(i)
Solving it with the curve, we get

x2 + 2x(2 – x) – 3(2 – x)2 = 0
ln3 = – ln2 + c
 –4x2 + 16x – 12 = 0
c = ln 6
 Equation of curve is xy = 6  x2 – 4x + 3 = 0

P (E2 )  Probability =

P(E1  E2) = P(A shows 4 and B shows 2) 300. Answer (2)
1 E1 : Event that first ball drawn is red.
=  P (E1 ).P (E2 )
36 E2 : Event that first ball drawn is black.
So E1, E2 are independent E : Event that second ball drawn is red.
Also as E1  E2  E3 = 
⎛E ⎞ ⎛ E ⎞
So P(E1  E2  E3)  P(E1. P(E2). P(E3) P (E )  P (E1 ).P ⎜ ⎟  P (E2 ).P ⎜ ⎟
⎝ E1 ⎠ ⎝ E2 ⎠
So E1, E2, E3 are not independent.
