MCQ 21 Mark
$\int e^x\left(\frac{1-x}{1+x^2}\right)^2 d x$ is equal to
  • A
    $-\frac{e^x}{1+x^2}+C$
  • B
    $-\frac{e^x}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2}+C$
  • $\frac{e^x}{1+x^2}+C$
  • D
    $\frac{e^x}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2}+C$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{e^x}{1+x^2}+C$
(c) $\frac{e^x}{1+x^2}+C$
$\begin{array}{l}\text { Explanation: Given } \int e^x\left(\frac{1-x}{1+x^2}\right)^2 d x \\ \Rightarrow \int e^x\left(\frac{1-x}{1+x^2}\right)^2 d x=\int e^x\left(\frac{1+x^2-2 x}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2}\right) d x \\ \Rightarrow \int e^x\left(\frac{1+x^2-2 x}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2}\right) d x=\int e^x\left\{\left(\frac{1+x^2}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2}\right)+\left(\frac{-2 x}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2}\right)\right\} d x \\ =\int e^x\left\{\left(\frac{1}{\left(1+x^2\right)}\right)+\left(\frac{-2 x}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2}\right)\right\} d x\end{array}$
Now using the property: $\int e ^{ x }\left( f ( x )+ f ^{\prime}( x )\right) dx = e ^{ x } f ( x )$
Now in $\int e^x\left\{\left(\frac{1}{\left(1+x^2\right)}\right)+\left(\frac{-2 x}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2}\right)\right\} d x$
$\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow f ( x )=\frac{1}{\left(1+x^2\right)} \\ \Rightarrow f ^{\prime}( x )=\frac{-2 x}{\left(1+x^2\right)^2} \\ \Rightarrow \int e ^{ x }\left\{\left(\frac{1}{\left(1+ x ^2\right)}\right)+\left(\frac{-2 x }{\left(1+ x ^2\right)^2}\right)\right\} dx =\frac{ e ^{ x }}{1+ x ^2}+ C \\ \Rightarrow \int e^x\left(\frac{1-x}{1+x^2}\right)^2 d x=\frac{e^x}{1+x^2}+C\end{array}$

MCQ 61 Mark
If a man goes 18 km downstream in 4 hours and returns against the stream in 12 hours, then the speed of the stream in km/hr is
  • $\frac{3}{2}$
  • B
    3
  • C
    1
  • D
    $\frac{7}{4}$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\frac{3}{2}$
(a) $\frac{3}{2}$
Explanation: Rate downstream $=\frac{18}{4}=\frac{9}{2} km / hr$
Rate upstream $=\frac{18}{12}=\frac{3}{2} km / hr$
Now, the speed of the stream $=\frac{\text { Rate Downstream-Rate Upstream }}{2}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\frac{9}{2}-\frac{3}{2}}{2}=\frac{6}{4}=\frac{3}{2}$

MCQ 81 Mark
A milkman mixed some water with milk to gain 25% by selling the mixture at the cost price. The ratio of water and milk respectively is:
  • A
    1 : 5
  • B
    5 : 4
  • C
    4 : 5
  • 1 : 4
Answer
Correct option: D.
1 : 4
(d) 1 : 4
Explanation: Cost price of 1 litres of milk = ₹ 100
$\therefore$ Mixture sold for ₹ 125
$=\frac{125}{100}=\frac{5}{4}$ litres
$\therefore$ Quantity of mixture $=\frac{5}{4}$ litres
$\therefore$ Quantity of milk $=1$ litre
$\therefore$ Quantity of water $=\frac{5}{4}-1=\frac{1}{4}$ litre
$\therefore$ Required ratio $=\frac{1}{4}: 1=1: 4$

MCQ 101 Mark
In a 1000 m race, A can beat B by 100 m. In a race of 400 m, B can beat C by 40 m. By how many meters will A beat C in a race of 500 m?
  • A
    105 m
  • B
    85 m
  • C
    115 m
  • D
    95 m
Answer
(d) 95 m
Explanation: When A runs 1000 m, B runs 900 m
Hence, when A runs 500 m , B runs 450 m
Again, when $B$ runs $400 m, C$ runs 360 m
And, when $B$ runs $450 m, C$ runs $=360 \times \frac{450}{400}=405 m$
Required distance $=500-405=95$ meter
That means when A runs 500 meter then $B$ can run 450 m then $C$ runs 405 m

$y = ae m ^{ mx }+b e^{- mx }$, where $a , b$ are arbitrary constants satisfies which of the following differential equation?
  • A
    $\frac{d y}{d x}+ my =0$
  • B
    $\frac{d y}{d x}- my =0$
  • $\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}- m ^2 y =0$
  • D
    $\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}+ m ^2 y =0$
Answer

$\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}- m ^2 y =0$
(C) $\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}- m ^2 y =0$
Explanation: $y = a e ^{ mx }+b e ^{- mx }$
$\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}= mae ^{ mx }- bme ^{- mx } \\ \text { and } \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}= m ^2 ae ^{ mx }+ m ^2 be ^{- mx }= m ^2\left( ae ^{ mx }+ be ^{- mx }\right) \\ \Rightarrow \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}= m ^2 y \text { i.e. } \frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}- m ^2 y =0\end{array}$

If $y =e^x+e^{x+\ldots \infty}$ then $\frac{d y}{d x}=$ ?
  • $\frac{y}{(1-y)}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{(y-1)}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{(1-y)}$
  • D
    $\frac{y}{(y-1)}$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\frac{y}{(1-y)}$
(a) $\frac{y}{(1-y)}$
Explanation: We can write it as
$\Rightarrow y=e^{x+y}$
log y = (x + y) log e
Differentiating with respect to x,we get
$\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow \frac{1}{y} \frac{d y}{d x}=1+\frac{d y}{d x} \\ \Rightarrow\left(\frac{1}{y}-1\right) \frac{d y}{d x}=1 \\ \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=1\left(\frac{y}{1-y}\right)\end{array}$

An 8 year annuity due has a present value of ₹ 1000. If the interest rate is 5% p.a., the amount of each annuity is closest to [Use $\left.(1.05)^{-8}=0.676\right]$
  • A
    ₹ 154.73
  • B
    ₹ 109.39
  • C
    ₹ 104.72
  • ₹ 147.36
Answer
Correct option: D.
₹ 147.36
(d) ₹ 147.36
Explanation: Present value = ₹ 1000, Let each annuity be ₹ x,$n =8$ years, $r =5 \% \Rightarrow i =\frac{5}{100}=0.05$
$\begin{array}{l} n =8 \text { years, } r =5 \% \Rightarrow i =\frac{5}{100}=0.05 \\ \therefore 1000=\frac{x(1+0.05)}{0.05}\left[1-(1+0.05)^{-8}\right]\end{array}$
$\begin{array}{l}=\frac{x(1.05)}{0.05}\left[\left(1-(1.05)^{-8}\right]\right. \\ =21 x [1-0.676] \\ =21 x \times 0.324 \\ \Rightarrow x =\frac{1000}{21 \times 0.324}= ₹146.97\end{array}$
Closest to ₹ 147.36
