Let the angle $\theta, 0<\theta<\frac{\pi}{2}$ between two unit vectors $\hat{a}$ and $\hat{b}$ be $\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\sqrt{65}}{9}\right)$. If the vector $\vec{c}=3 \hat{a}+6 \hat{b}+9(\hat{a} \times \hat{b}), \quad$ then the value of $9(\vec{c} \cdot \hat{a})-3(\vec{c} \cdot \hat{b})$ is
  • A
    31
  • B
    27
  • C
    29
  • D
    24
Answer
C. 29
$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{c}}=3 \vec{a}+6 \vec{b}+9(\vec{a} \times \vec{b})$
$\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\sqrt{65}}{9}\right) \Rightarrow \sin \theta=\frac{\sqrt{65}}{9} \Rightarrow \cos \theta=\frac{4}{9}$
$\vec{c} \cdot \vec{a}=3|\vec{a}|^{2}+6 \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}=3+\frac{6.4}{9}=\frac{51}{9}$
$\vec{c} \cdot \vec{a}=3 \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}+6|\vec{b}|^{2}=\frac{3.4}{9}+6=\frac{22}{3}$
$\therefore 9(\vec{c} \cdot \vec{a})-3(\vec{c} \cdot \vec{b})=51-22=29$

  • B
    $\frac{7}{5}$
  • C

  • D
    $\frac{21}{5}$
Answer
B. $\frac{7}{5}$
$\left|\begin{array}{ccc}2 & 3 & 5 \\ 7 & 3 & -2 \\ 12 & 3 & -(\lambda+4)\end{array}\right|=0$
$\Rightarrow 12(-21)-3(-39)-(\lambda+4)(-15)=0$
$\Rightarrow-252+117+15(1+4)=0$
$\Rightarrow 15 \lambda+177-252=0$
$\Rightarrow 15 \lambda-75=0 \Rightarrow \lambda=5$
$\left|\begin{array}{ccc}9 & 3 & 5 \\ 8 & 3 & -2 \\ 16-\mu & 3 & -9\end{array}\right|=0 \Rightarrow\left|\begin{array}{ccc}1 & 0 & 7 \\ \mu-8 & 0 & 7 \\ 16-\mu & 3 & -9\end{array}\right|=0$
$\Rightarrow 7-7(\mu-8)=0 \Rightarrow 1-(\mu-8)=0 \Rightarrow \mu=9$
$\Rightarrow$ centre of circle $(5,9)$
radius $=$ length of $\perp$ from centre $(5,9)=$ $\left|\frac{20-27}{5}\right|=\frac{7}{5}$

  • A
    866
  • B
    750
  • C
    820
  • D
    732
Answer
D. 732
$|\operatorname{adj}(\operatorname{adj})(\operatorname{adj} A)|=81$
$\Rightarrow|\operatorname{adj} \mathrm{A}|^{4}=81$
$\Rightarrow|\operatorname{adj} \mathrm{A}|=3$
$\Rightarrow|A|^{2}=3$
$\Rightarrow|A|=\sqrt{3}$
$\left(|A|^{4}\right)^{\frac{(n-1)^{2}}{2}}=|A|^{3n^{2}-5 n-4}$
$\Rightarrow 2(\mathrm{n}-1)^{2}=3 \mathrm{n}^{2}-5 \mathrm{n}-4$
$\Rightarrow 2 \mathrm{n}^{2}-4 \mathrm{n}+2=3 \mathrm{n}^{2}-5 \mathrm{n}-4$
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{n}^{2}-\mathrm{n}-6=0$
$\Rightarrow(\mathrm{n}-3)(\mathrm{n}+2)=0$
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{n}=3,-2$
$\sum_{\mathrm{n} \in \mathrm{S}}\left|\mathrm{A}^{\mathrm{n}^{2}+\mathrm{n}}\right|$
$=\left|A^{2}\right|+\left|A^{12}\right|$

Answer
D. 449
Actual means $=\mu=\frac{100(40)-50+40}{100}$
$\mu=40-\frac{1}{10}=39.9$
Incorrect variance
$(5.1)^2=\frac{\sum x_i^2}{100}-(\overline{ x })^2 $
$\sum x _{ i }^2=100 \times\left(40^2\right)+100(5.1)^2 $
$\sum x _{ i }^2=16 \times 10^4+(5.1)^2 \times 100=162601 $
$\sigma^2=\frac{\sum x _{ i }^2-50^2+40^2}{100}-(\mu)^2 $
$\sigma^2=1617.01-(39.9)^2=25 $
$\sigma=5 $
$10(\mu+\sigma)=10(39.9+5) $

$\mathrm{x}-\sqrt{3} \tan \theta=3 \tan \theta+3 \sqrt{3}$
$\tan \theta=\frac{x-3 \sqrt{3}}{3+\sqrt{3} x} \ldots$ (1)
$\begin{array}{l}2\left(\frac{\tan \theta+\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}{1-\frac{\tan \theta}{\sqrt{3}}}-y\right) \\ 2(\sqrt{3} \tan \theta+1)=y(\sqrt{3}-\tan \theta) \ldots(2)\end{array}$
using (1) and (2)
$2\left(\frac{x-3 \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}+x}+1\right)=y\left(\sqrt{3}-\frac{(x-3 \sqrt{3})}{\sqrt{3}(\sqrt{3}+x)}\right)$
$2 \sqrt{3}(x-3 \sqrt{3}+x+\sqrt{3})=y(3(\sqrt{3}+x)-x+3 \sqrt{3})$

Let $y=y(x)$ be the solution curve of the differential equation
$x\left(x^{2}+e^{x}\right) d y+\left(e^{x}(x-2) y-x^{3}\right) d x=0, x>0$, passing through the point $(1,0)$. Then $y(2)$ is equal to :
  • A
    $\frac{4}{4-\mathrm{e}^{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{2+\mathrm{e}^{2}}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{2-\mathrm{e}^{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{4}{4+e^{2}}$
Answer
D. $\frac{4}{4+e^{2}}$
$x\left(x^{2}+e^{x}\right) d y+\left(e^{x}(x-2) y-x^{3}\right) d x=0$
$x\left(x^{2}+e^{x}\right) \frac{d y}{d x}+e^{x}(x-2) y=x^{3}$
$\frac{d y}{d x}+\frac{e^{x}(x-2)}{x\left(x^{2}+e^{x}\right)} y=\frac{x^{2}}{x^{2}+e^{x}}$
I.F. $=e^{\int \frac{e^{x}(x-2)}{x\left(x^{2}+e^{x}\right)} d x}=e^{\int \frac{e^{x}\left(\frac{1}{x^{2}}-\frac{2}{x^{2}}\right) d x}{\left(1+\frac{e^{x}}{x^{2}}\right)} d x}$
Let $1+\frac{e^{x}}{x^{2}}=t \Rightarrow \frac{x^{2} e^{x}-e^{x} 2 x}{x^{4}} d x=d t$
$\Rightarrow$ I.F. $\mathrm{e}^{\ln \left(1+\frac{x^{x}}{x^{2}}\right)}=1+\frac{\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{x}}}{\mathrm{x}^{2}}$
Now $y\left(1+\frac{e^{x}}{x^{2}}\right)=\int \frac{x^{2}}{x^{2}+e^{x}} \cdot \frac{x^{2}+e^{x}}{x^{2}} d x+C$
$y\left(1+\frac{e^{x}}{x^{2}}\right)=x+C$
Passing through $(1,0)$
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{C}=-1$
$\mathrm{y}=\frac{\mathrm{x}-1}{1+\frac{\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{x}}}{\mathrm{x}^{2}}}$
$y(2)=\frac{1}{1+\frac{\mathrm{e}^{2}}{4}}=\frac{4}{4+\mathrm{e}^{2}}$

$\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{+}} \frac{\tan \left(5(x)^{\frac{1}{3}}\right) \log _{e}\left(1+3 x^{2}\right)}{\left(\tan ^{-1} 3 \sqrt{x}\right)^{2}\left(e^{5(x)^{\frac{4}{3}}}-1\right)}$ is equal to
  • A
    $\frac{1}{15}$
  • B
    1
  • C
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{3}$
Answer
C. $\frac{1}{3}$
$\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{+}}\left(\frac{\tan \left(5 x^{1 / 3}\right)}{5 x^{1 / 3}}\right) \cdot\left(\frac{(3 \sqrt{x})^{2}}{\left(\tan ^{-1} 3 \sqrt{x}\right)^{2}}\right)\left(\frac{\ell\left(1+3 x^{2}\right)}{3 x^{2}}\right)\left(\frac{5 x^{4 / 3}}{e^{5 x{\frac{4}{3}}}-1}\right) \times \frac{5 x^{1 / 3} \cdot 3 x^{2}}{5 x^{4 / 3} \cdot 9 x}$
$=\frac{1}{3}$
