If n is the smallest natural number such that n + 2n + 3n + …. + 99n is a perfect square, then the number of digits in square of n is:
Answer
- 3
Solution:
Given thatn + 2n + 3n + …. + 99n
$ =\text{ n} × (1 + 2 + 3 + …….. + 99)$
$=\frac{\text{n} \times99 \times100}{2}$
$=\text{n} × 99 × 50$
$= \text{n} × 9 × 11 × 2 × 25$
To make it perfect square we need $2 \times 11$
So $n=2 \times 11=22$.
Now $n^2=22 \times 22=484$
So, the number of digit in $n^2=3$. View full question & answer→MCQ 61 Mark

The function f(x) = x - [x] has period of:
AnswerLet T is a positive real number.
Let f(x) is periodic with period T.
Now, f(x + T) = f(x), for all $\text{x} \in \text{R}$
⇒ x + T - [x + T] = x - [x], for all $ \text{x} \in \text{R}$
⇒ [x + T] - [x] = T, for all $ \text{x} \in \text{R}$
Thus, there exist T > 0 such that f(x + T) = f(x) for all $ \text{x} \in \text{R}$
Now, the smallest value of T satisfying f(x + T) = f(x) for all $ \text{x} \in \text{R}$ is 1
So, f(x) = x - [x] has period 1

The range of the function $\text{f(x)}=\frac{\text{x}^2-\text{x}}{\text{x}^2+2\text{x}}$ is:
AnswerCorrect option: C. $\text{R}-\Big\{\frac{1}{2},1\Big\}$
$\text{f(x)}=\frac{\text{x}^2-\text{x}}{\text{x}^2+2\text{x}}$
Let, $\text{y}=\frac{\text{x}^2-\text{x}}{\text{x}^2+2\text{x}}$ $\big[\text{Also},\text{ x}\neq0\big]$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\frac{\text{x}(\text{x}-1)}{\text{x}(\text{x}+2)}$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=\frac{(\text{x}-1)}{(\text{x}+2)}$
$\Rightarrow\text{xy}+2\text{y}=\text{x}-1$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{2\text{y}+1}{1-\text{y}}$
Here, $1-\text{y}\neq0$
Or, $\text{y}\neq1$
Also, $\text{x}\neq0$
$\Rightarrow\frac{2\text{y}+1}{1-\text{y}}\neq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}\neq-\frac{1}{2}$

The domain of definition of the function $\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{\frac{\text{x}-2}{\text{x}+2}}+\sqrt{\frac{1-\text{x}}{1+\text{x}}}$ is:
AnswerCorrect option: C. $\phi$
$\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{\frac{\text{x}-2}{\text{x}+2}}+\sqrt{\frac{1-\text{x}}{1+\text{x}}}$
For f(x) to be defined,
$\text{x}+2\neq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\neq-2\ ...(\text{i})$
And $1+\text{x}\neq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\neq-1\ ...(\text{ii})$
Also, $\frac{\text{x}-2}{\text{x}+2}\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\frac{(\text{x}-2)(\text{x}-2)}{(\text{x}-2)^2}\ge0$
$\Rightarrow(\text{x}-2)(\text{x}+2)\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\in(\infty,-2)\cup\big[2,\infty\big)\ ...(\text{iii})$
And $\frac{1-\text{x}}{1+\text{x}}\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\frac{(1-\text{x})(1+\text{x})}{(1+\text{x})^2}\geq0$
$\Rightarrow(1-\text{x})(1+\text{x})\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{ x}\in\big(-\infty,-1\big)\cup\big[1,\infty\big)\ ...(\text{iv})$

AnswerCorrect option: A. $\big[4,\infty\big)$
$\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{\text{x}-3-2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}}-\sqrt{\text{x}-3+2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}}$
For f(x) to be defined, $\text{x}-4\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}-4\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\geq4\ ...(\text{i})$
Also, $\text{x}-3-2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}-3-2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}-3\geq2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}$
$\Rightarrow(\text{x}-3)^2\geq\big(2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}\big)^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2+9-6\text{x}\geq4(\text{x}-4)$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2-10\text{x}+25\geq0$
$\Rightarrow\big(\text{x}-5\big)^2\geq0,$ which is always true.

AnswerCorrect option: C. $\Big[\frac{3}{4},1\Big]$
Given,
$\text{f(x)}=\cos^2\text{x}+\sin^4\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=1-\sin^2\text{x}+\sin^4\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\Big(\sin^2\text{x}-\frac{1}{2}\Big)^2+\frac{3}{4}$
The minimum value of $\text{f(x)}$ is $\frac{3}{4}$
Also,
$\sin^2\text{x}\leq1$
$\Rightarrow\ \sin^2\text{x}-\frac{1}{2}\leq\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\ \Big(\sin^2\text{x}-\frac{1}{2}\Big)^2\leq\frac{1}{4}$
$\Rightarrow\ \Big(\sin^2\text{x}-\frac{1}{2}\Big)^2+\frac{3}{4}\leq\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{4}$

Given that: $\text{f(x)}=\frac{4-\text{x}}{\text{x}-4}$
We know that f(x) is defined if $\text{x}-4\neq0 \Rightarrow \text{x}\neq4$
So, the domain of f(x) is = R - {4}
Let $\text{f(x)}=\text{y}=\frac{4-\text{x}}{\text{x}-4}$
$\Rightarrow\text{yx}-4\text{y}=4-\text{x}\Rightarrow\text{yx}+\text{x}=4\text{y}+4$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}(\text{y}+1)=4\text{y}+4\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{4(1+\text{y})}{1+\text{y}}$
If x is real number, then $1+\text{y}\neq0\Rightarrow\text{x}\neq1$

- D
$\Big[-\frac{1}{3}, 1\Big]$
AnswerCorrect option: C. $(-\infty, -1]\cup\Big[\frac{1}{3},\infty\Big)$
We know that, $-1\leq-\cos\text{x}\leq1$
$\Rightarrow-1\leq-\cos\text{x}\leq1$
$\Rightarrow-2\leq-2\cos\text{x}\leq2$
$\Rightarrow-1\leq-2\cos\text{x}\leq3$
Now $\text{f(x)}=\frac{1}{1-2\cos\text{x}}$ is defined if
$-1\leq-2\cos\text{x}\leq0$ or $0<1-2\cos\text{x}\leq3$
$\Rightarrow-1\geq\frac{1}{1-2\cos\text{x}}>-\infty$ or $\infty>\frac{1}{1-2\cos\text{x}}\geq\frac{1}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{1-2\cos\text{x}}\in(-\infty, -1]\cup\Big[\frac{1}{3},\infty\Big)$

- B
$\text{f(xy)}\geq\text{f(x)}\text{f(y)}$
- ✓
$\text{f(xy)}\leq\text{f(x)}\text{f(y)}$
- D
AnswerCorrect option: C. $\text{f(xy)}\leq\text{f(x)}\text{f(y)}$
Given, $\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{\text{x}^2+1}\ ...(\text{i})$
Replacing x by y in (i), we get
$\text{f(y)}=\sqrt{\text{y}^2+1}$
$\therefore\ \text{f(x)}\text{f(y)}=\sqrt{\text{x}^2+1}\sqrt{\text{y}^2+1}$
$=\sqrt{(\text{x}^2+1)(\text{y}^2+1)}$
$=\sqrt{\text{x}^2\text{y}^2+\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+1}$
Also, replacing x by xy in (i), we get
$\text{f(xy)}=\sqrt{\text{x}^2\text{y}^2+1}$
Now,
$\text{x}^2\text{y}^2+1\leq\text{x}^2\text{y}^2+\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+1$
$\Rightarrow\sqrt{\text{x}^2\text{y}^2+1}\leq\sqrt{\text{x}^2\text{y}^2+\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+1}$

AnswerGiven, function $ \text{f}(\text{x})=\sin \big(\frac{2\pi\text{x}}{3}\big)+\cos \big(\frac{\pi\text{x}}{2}\big)$
Now, period of $ \text{f}(\text{x})=\big(\frac{2\pi\text{x}\times{3}}{2\pi}\big)=3$
and period of $\cos \Big(\frac{\text{n}\pi}{2}\Big)=\frac{2\text{n}}{\frac{\text{n}}{2}} = \big(\frac{2\pi\text{}\times{2}}{ \pi}\big)= 2 × 2 = 4$ $$
Now, period of f(x) = LCM(3, 4) = 12 Hence, period of function $\text{f(x)} = \sin\frac{2\pi\text{x}}{3} + \cos \big(\frac{\pi\text{x}}{2}\big) + \cos$ $$is 12

AnswerGiven,
$\text{f(x)}=\cos(\log\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x}^2)=\cos(\log(\text{x}^2))$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x}^2)=\cos(2\log(\text{x}))$
Similarly,
$\text{f}(\text{y}^2)=\cos(2\log(\text{y}))$
Now,
$\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)=\cos\Big(\log\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)\Big)=\cos\big(\log\text{x}^2-\log\text{y}^2\big)$
and $\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=\cos(\log\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=\cos\big(\log\text{x}^2+\log\text{y}^2\big)$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=\cos\big((2\log\text{x}-2\log\text{y})\big)+\cos\big((2\log\text{x}-2\log\text{y})\big)$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=2\cos(2\log\text{x})\cos(2\log\text{y})$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\bigg[\Big(\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)\bigg]=\cos(2\log)\cos(2\log\text{y})$

We know that $-1\leq\cos\text{x}\leq1$ for all $\text{x}\in\text{R}$
Now,
$-1\leq\cos\text{x}\leq1$
$\Rightarrow-1\leq\cos\text{x}\leq1$
$\Rightarrow-2\leq-2\cos\text{x}\leq2$
$\Rightarrow-1\leq1-2\cos\text{x}\leq3$ (Adding 1 ro each term)
But,
$\cos\text{x}\neq\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow1-2\cos\text{x}\in\big[-1,3\big]-\{0\}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{1-2\cos\text{x}}\in\big(-\infty,-1\big]\cap\Big[\frac{1}{3},\infty\Big)$
$\therefore\ \text{Range of }\text{f(x)}=\big(-\infty,-1\big]\cap\Big[\frac{1}{3},\infty\Big)$
Disclaimer: The range of the function does not matches with either of the given options. The range matches with option (c) if it is given as $\big(-\infty,-1\big]\cap\Big[\frac{1}{3},\infty\Big)$

The domain of the function $\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{2-2\text{x}-\text{x}^2}$ is:
- A
$\big[-\sqrt{3},\sqrt{3}\big]$
- ✓
$\big[-1,-\sqrt{3},-1+\sqrt{3}\big]$
- C
$\big[-2,2\big]$
- D
$\big[-2-\sqrt{3},-2+\sqrt{3}\big]$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $\big[-1,-\sqrt{3},-1+\sqrt{3}\big]$
$\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{2-2\text{x}-\text{x}^2}$
Since, $2-2\text{x}-\text{x}^2\geq0$
$\text{x}^2+2\text{x}-2\leq0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2-2\text{x}-2+1-1\leq0$
$\Rightarrow(\text{x}-1)^2-\big(\sqrt{3}\big)^2\leq0$
$\Rightarrow\big[\text{x}-\big(1-\sqrt{3}\big)\big]\big[\text{x}-\big(1+\sqrt{3}\big)\big]\leq0$
$\Rightarrow\big(-1-\sqrt{3}\big)\leq\text{x}\leq(-1+\sqrt{3})$
Thus, domain $(\text{f})=\big[-1-\sqrt{3},-1+\sqrt{3}\big]$

The domain of $ \tan^{-1}(2\text{x}+1)$ is:
- ✓
$ \text{R}$
- B
$ \text{R}-\frac{1}{2}$
- C
$ \text{R}-\frac{-1}{2}$
- D
$\text{None of these}$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $ \text{R}$
Since $ \tan^1$ x exists if $\text{x}\in(-\infty,\infty)$
So, (2x + 1) is defined if
$ -\infty < 2\text{x} + 1 <\infty$
$\Rightarrow-\infty < \times <\infty$
$\Rightarrow \text{x}\in (-\infty,\infty)$
$\Rightarrow \text{x}\in \text{R}$
So, domain of $ \tan^-1(2\text{x}+1)$ is R.
