    {(10, 13), (8, 11), (12, 10)}
  • D
    none of these.
Answer
  1. {(8, 11), (10, 13)}

Solution:

R is a relation from {11, 12, 13} to {8, 10, 12}, defined by y = x - 3

Now, we have,

11 - 3 = 8

13 - 3 = 10

So, R = {(13, 10), (11, 8)}

$\therefore$ R-1 = {(10, 13), (8, 11)}

  • A
    3
  • B
    4
  • C
    12
  • D
    None of these
Answer
  1. 12

Solution:

Given, 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

Let $\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{\text{x}^2+1}$ Then which of the following is correct?
  • A
    $\text{f(xy)}=\text{f(x)}\text{f(y)}$
  • B
    $\text{f(xy)}\geq\text{f(x)}\text{f(y)}$
  • C
    $\text{f(xy)}\leq\text{f(x)}\text{f(y)}$
  • D
    None os these.
Answer
  1. $\text{f(xy)}\leq\text{f(x)}\text{f(y)}$

Solution:

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,

$\text{x}^2\text{y}^2+1\leq\text{x}^2\text{y}^2+\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+1$

$\Rightarrow\sqrt{\text{x}^2\text{y}^2+1}\leq\sqrt{\text{x}^2\text{y}^2+\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2+1}$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}(\text{xy})\leq\text{f(x)}\text{f(y)}$

Since $ -1 \leq \cos \text{3x} \leq1$ for all$\text{ x }∈\text{R}$

So,$ -1 \leq 2 \cos \text{3x} \leq1$for all$\text{ x }∈\text{R}$

$\text{f}(\text{x})$ is defined for all$\text{ x }∈\text{R}$

So, domain of f(x) is R.

Range of $\text{f(x)}=\frac{1}{1-2\cos\text{x}}$ is.
  • A
    $\Big[\frac{1}{3}, 1\Big]$
  • B
    $\Big[-1, \frac{1}{3}\Big]$
  • C
    $(-\infty, -1]\cup\Big[\frac{1}{3},\infty\Big)$
  • D
    $\Big[-\frac{1}{3}, 1\Big]$
Answer
  1. $(-\infty, -1]\cup\Big[\frac{1}{3},\infty\Big)$

Solution:

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
    $\big[-3,-2\big]\cup\big[2,3\big) $
  • C
    $\big[-3,-2\big]\cup\big[2,3\big] $
  • D
    None os these.
Answer
  1. $\big[-3,-2\big]\cup\big[2,3\big] $

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{5|\text{x}|-\text{x}^2-16}$

For f(x) to be defined, $5|\text{x}|-\text{x}^2-6\geq0$

$\Rightarrow5|\text{x}|-\text{x}^2-6\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2-5|\text{x}|+6\leq0$

For x > 0, |x| = x

$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2-5\text{x}+6\leq0$

$\Rightarrow(\text{x}-2)(\text{x}-3)\leq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\in[2,3]\ ...(\text{i})$

For x < 0, |x| = -x

$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2+5\text{x}+6\leq0$

$\Rightarrow(\text{x}+2)(\text{x}+3)\leq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\in\big[-3,-2\big]\ ...(\text{ii})$

From (i) and (ii),

$\text{x}\in\big[-3,-2\big]\cup\big[2,3\big]$

Or, $\text{domain(f)}=\big[-3,-2\big]\cup\big[2,3\big]$

Answer
  1. $\big[-1,2\big)\cap\big[3,\infty\big)$

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{\frac{(\text{x}+1)(\text{x}-3)}{\text{x}-2}}$

For f(x) to be defined,

$(\text{x}-2)\neq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\neq2\ ...(\text{i})$

Also,

$\frac{(\text{x}+1)(\text{x}-3)}{\text{x}-2}\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\frac{(\text{x}+1)(\text{x}-3)(\text{x}-2)}{(\text{x}-2)^2}\geq0$

$\Rightarrow(\text{x}+1)(\text{x}-3)(\text{x}-2)\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\in\big[-1,2\big)\cup\big[3,\infty\big)\ ...(\text{ii})$

  • B
    $\{\cos1,\cos2,1\}$
  • C
    {$\cos1,-\cos1,1$}
  • D
    $[-1,1]$
Answer
  1. $\{\cos1,\cos2,1\}$

Solution:

Since, $\text{f(x)}=\cos[\text{x}],$ where $\frac{-\pi}{2}<\text{x}<\frac{\pi}{2}$

$-\frac{\pi}{2}<\text{x}<\frac{\pi}{2}$

$\Rightarrow-1.57<\text{x}<1.57$

$\Rightarrow[\text{x}]\ \in\ \{-1,0,1,2\}$

Thus, $\cos[\text{x}]=\{\cos(-1),\cos0,\cos1,\cos2\}$

Range of $\text{f(x)}=\{\cos1,1,\cos2\}$

f is a real valued function given by $\text{f(x)}=27\text{x}^3+\frac{1}{\text{x}^3}$ and $\alpha,\beta$ are roots of $3\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}=12$ Then,
  • A
    $\text{f}(\alpha)\neq\text{f}(\beta)$
  • B
    $\text{f}(\alpha)=10$
  • C
    $\text{f}(\beta)=-10$
  • D
    None of these.
Answer
  1. None of these.

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=27\text{x}^3+\frac{1}{\text{x}^3}$

$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\Big(3\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)\Big(9\text{x}^2+\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}-3\Big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\Big(3\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)\Big(\Big(3\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)^2-9\Big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}(\alpha)=\Big(3\alpha+\frac{1}{\alpha}\Big)\Big(\Big(3\alpha+\frac{1}{\alpha}\Big)^2-9\Big)$

Since $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are the roots of $3\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}=12,$

$3\alpha+\frac{1}{\alpha}=12$ and $3\beta+\frac{1}{\beta}=12$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}(\alpha)=12\big((12)^2-9\big)$ and $\text{f}(\beta)=12\big((12)^2-9\big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}(\alpha)=\text{f}(\beta)=\big((12)^2-9\big)$

Choose the correct answers:
The domain and range of the real function f defined by $\text{f(x)}=\frac{4-\text{x}}{\text{x}-4}$ is given by.
  • A
    Domain = R, Range = {-1, 1}
  • B
    Domain = R - {1}, Range = R
  • C
    Domain = R - {4}, Range = {-1}
  • D
    Domain = R - {-4}, Range = {-1, 1}
Answer
  1. Domain = R - {4}, Range = {-1}

Solution:

 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 $1+\text{y}\neq0\Rightarrow\text{x}\neq1$

$\therefore$ Range of f(x) = R - {-1)

  • A
    $\Big[\frac{3}{4},1\Big]$
  • B
    $\Big(\frac{3}{4},1\Big]$
  • C
    $\Big[\frac{3}{4},1\Big]$
  • D
    $\Big(\frac{3}{4},1\Big)$
Answer
  1. $\Big[\frac{3}{4},1\Big]$

Solution:

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,

$\sin^2\text{x}\leq1$

$\Rightarrow\ \sin^2\text{x}-\frac{1}{2}\leq\frac{1}{2}$

$\Rightarrow\ \Big(\sin^2\text{x}-\frac{1}{2}\Big)^2\leq\frac{1}{4}$

$\Rightarrow\ \Big(\sin^2\text{x}-\frac{1}{2}\Big)^2+\frac{3}{4}\leq\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{4}$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x)}\leq1$

The maximum value of f(x) is 1

$\therefore\ \text{f(R)}=\Big(\frac{3}{4},1\Big)$

Let f(x) = |x - 1|. Then:
Answer
  1. None of these.

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=|\text{x}-1|$

Since, $|\text{x}^2-1|\neq|\text{x}-1|^2$

$\text{f(x)}^2\neq(\text{f(x)})^2$

Thus, (i) is wrong.

Since, $|\text{x}+\text{y}-1|\neq|\text{x}-1||\text{y}-1|$

$\text{f}(\text{x}+\text{y})\neq\text{f(x)}\text{f(y)}$

Thus, (ii) is wrong.

Since, $|\text{|x|}-1\neq||\text{x}-1||=|\text{x}-1|$

$\text{f(|x|)}\neq|\text{f(x)}|$

Thus, (iii) is wrong.

Hence, none of the given options is the answer.

Let f : R → R be a function given by f(x) = x2 + 1 then the value of f-1 (26) is:
Answer
  1. $ ±5$

Solution:

Let $\text{y}=\text{f}(\text{x})=\text{x}^{2}+1$

⇒ $\text{y}=\text{x}^{2}+1$

⇒ $ \text{y}-1=\text{x}^{2}$

⇒ $ \text{x} = ±\sqrt{(\text{y} – 1)}$

⇒ $\text{f}^{-1} \text{x} = ±\sqrt{(\text{x} – 1)}$

Now, $\text{f}^{-1} (26) = ±\sqrt{(\text{26} – 1)}$

⇒ $\text{f}^{-1} (26) = ±\sqrt{(\text{25} )}$

⇒ $\text{f}^{-1} (26) = ± {5 }$

The domain of $ \tan^{-1}(2\text{x}+1)$ is:
  • A
    $ \text{R}$
  • B
    $ \text{R}-\frac{1}{2}$
  • C
    $ \text{R}-\frac{-1}{2}$
  • D
    $\text{None of these}$
Answer
  1. $ \text{R}$

Solution:

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.

  • B
    $\big[-1,-\sqrt{3},-1+\sqrt{3}\big]$
  • C
    $\big[-2,2\big]$
  • D
    $\big[-2-\sqrt{3},-2+\sqrt{3}\big]$
Answer
  1.  $\big[-1,-\sqrt{3},-1+\sqrt{3}\big]$

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{2-2\text{x}-\text{x}^2}$

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 and range of the function f given by f(x) = 2 - x - 5| is.

  • A
    Domain = R+, Range $= ( –\infty, 1]$
  • B
    Domain = R, Range $= ( –\infty, 2]$
  • C
    Domain = R, Range $= ( –\infty, 2]$
  • D
    Domain = R+ , Range $= ( –\infty, 2]$
Answer
  1. Domain = R, Range $= ( –\infty, 2]$

Solution:

We have, f(x) = 2 - |x - 5|

Clearly, f(x) is defined for all $\text{x}\in\text{R}.$

$\therefore$ Domain of f = R

Now, $|\text{x}-5|\geq0,\forall\text{x}\in\text{R}$

$\Rightarrow-|\text{x}-5|\leq0$

$\Rightarrow2-|\text{x}-5|\leq2$

$\therefore\text{f(x)}\leq2$

  • C
    $\big(-\infty,-1\big)\cup\Big[\frac{1}{3},\infty\Big)$
  • D
    $\Big[-\frac{1}{3},1\Big]$
Answer
  1. $\Big[-1,\frac{1}{3}\Big]$

Solution:

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,

$\cos\text{x}\neq\frac{1}{2}$

$\Rightarrow1-2\cos\text{x}\in\big[-1,3\big]-\{0\}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{1-2\cos\text{x}}\in\big(-\infty,-1\big]\cap\Big[\frac{1}{3},\infty\Big)$

$\therefore\ \text{Range of }\text{f(x)}=\big(-\infty,-1\big]\cap\Big[\frac{1}{3},\infty\Big)$

  • D
    f(x) + f(x - 1) = 1
Answer
  1. f(x) + f(1 - x) = 1

Solution:

$\text{f}\big(\text{1}-\text{x}\big)=\frac{4^{1-\text{x}}}{4^{1-\text{x}}+2}$

$=\frac{4}{2\times4^{\text{x}}+4}$

$=\frac{2}{4^{\text{x}}+2}$

$\text{f(x)}+\text{f}(1-\text{x})=\frac{4^{\text{x}}}{4^{\text{x}}+2}+\frac{2}{4^{\text{x}}+2}$

  • B
    $\log(\cos(\text{x}-\text{y}))$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    $\cos(\text{x}+\text{y})$
Answer
  1. $\cos(\text{x}+\text{y})$

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=\cos(\log_\text{e}\text{x})$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)=\cos\Big(\log_\text{e}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)\Big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)=\cos\Big(-\log_\text{e}(\text{x})\Big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)=\cos\Big(\log_\text{e}(\text{x})\Big)$

Similarly,

$\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{y}}\Big)=\cos(\log_\text{e}\text{y})$

Now,

$\text{f(xy)}=\cos(\log_\text{e}\text{xy})=\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{x}+\log_\text{e}\text{y}\big)$

and

$\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)=\cos\Big(\log_\text{e}\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)=\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{x}-\log_\text{e}\text{y}\big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)+\text{f(xy)}=\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{x}+\log_\text{e}\text{y}\big)+\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{x}-\log_\text{e}\text{y}\big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)+\text{f(xy)}=2\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{x}\big)\cos(\log_\text{e}\text{y})$

$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\Big[\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)+\text{f(xy)}\Big]=\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{x}\big)\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{y}\big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{y}}\Big)-\frac{1}{2}\Big\{\text{f(xy)}+\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)\Big\}=\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{x}\big)\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{y}\big)\\\ \ -\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{x}\big)\cos\big(\log_\text{e}\text{y}\big)=0$

  • C
    $\{1\}$
  • D
    $\{\text{x}:-4\leq\text{x}\leq0\}$
Answer

Solution:

As, $\text{|x|}=\begin{cases}\text{x},\ \text{x}\geq0\\-\text{x}<0\end{cases}$

So, $\text{f(x)}=\frac{\text{x}}{|\text{x}|}$

When, $\text{x}<0\text{ i.e.,}\text{ x}\in\big[-4,0\big)$

$\text{f(x)}=\frac{\text{x}}{-\text{x}}=-1$

and when, $\text{x}>0\text{ i.e., x}\in\big(0,4\big]$

$\text{f(x)}=\frac{\text{x}}{\text{x}}=1$

If $\text{f(x)}=\cos(\log\text{x}),$ then the value of $\text{f(x}^2)\text{f}(\text{y}^2)-\frac{1}{2}\Big\{\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}\big(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2\big)\Big\}$ is:
  • A
    -2
  • B
    -1
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • D
    None of these.
Answer
  1. None of these.

Solution:

Given,

$\text{f(x)}=\cos(\log\text{x})$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x}^2)=\cos(\log(\text{x}^2))$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x}^2)=\cos(2\log(\text{x}))$

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 $\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=\cos(\log\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=\cos\big(\log\text{x}^2+\log\text{y}^2\big)$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=\cos\big((2\log\text{x}-2\log\text{y})\big)+\cos\big((2\log\text{x}-2\log\text{y})\big)$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)=2\cos(2\log\text{x})\cos(2\log\text{y})$

$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\bigg[\Big(\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2)\bigg]=\cos(2\log)\cos(2\log\text{y})$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x}^2)\text{f}(\text{y}^2)-\frac{1}{2}\Big\{\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}^2}{\text{y}^2}\Big)+\text{f}\big(\text{x}^2\text{y}^2\big)\Big\}\\\ =\cos(2\log)\cos(2\log\text{y})-\cos(2\log)\cos(2\log\text{y})=0$

If $\text{f(x)}=64\text{x}^3+\frac{1}{\text{x}^3}$ and $\alpha,\beta$ are the roots of $4\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}=3.$ Then,
  • A
    $\text{f}(\alpha)=\text{f}(\beta)=-9$
  • B
    $\text{f}(\alpha)=\text{f}(\beta)=63$
  • C
    $\text{f}(\alpha)\neq\text{f}(\beta)$
  • D
    None of these.
Answer
  1. $\text{f}(\alpha)=\text{f}(\beta)=-9$

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=64\text{x}^3+\frac{1}{\text{x}^3}$

$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\Big(4\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)\Big(16\text{x}^2+\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}-4\Big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\Big(4\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)\Big(\Big(4\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)^2-12\Big)$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}(\text{a})=\Big(4\alpha+\frac{1}{\alpha}\Big)\Big(\Big(4\alpha+\frac{1}{\alpha}\Big)^2-12\Big)$ and $\text{f}(\beta)=\Big(4\beta+\frac{1}{\beta}\Big)\Big(\Big(4\beta+\frac{1}{\beta}\Big)^2-12\Big)$

Since $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are the roots of $4\text{x}+\frac{1}{\text{x}}=3,$

$4\alpha+\frac{1}{\alpha}=3$ and $4\beta+\frac{1}{\beta}=3$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}(\alpha)=3\big((3)^2-12\big)=-9$ and $\text{f}(\beta)=3\big((3)^2-12\big)=-9$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}(\alpha)=\text{f}(\beta)=-9$

The domain of definition of $\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{4\text{x}-\text{x}^2}$ is:
  • A
    $\text{R}-[0,4]$
  • B
    $\text{R}-(0,4)$
  • C
    $(0,4)$
  • D
    $[0,4]$
Answer
  1. $[0,4]$

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{4\text{x}-\text{x}^2}$

Clearly, f(x) assumes real values if

$4\text{x}-\text{x}^2\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}(4-\text{x})\geq0$

$\Rightarrow-\text{x}(\text{x}-4)\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}(\text{x}-4)\leq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\in[0,4]$

Hence, domain $(\text{f})=[0,4]$

Answer
  1. None os these.

Solution:

$3\text{f(x)}+5\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)=\frac{1}{\text{x}}-3\ ...(\text{i})$

Multiplying (1) by 3,

$15\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)+9\text{f(x)}=\frac{3}{\text{x}}-9\ ...(\text{ii})$

Replacing x by $\frac{1}{\text{x}}$ in (i)

$3\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)+5\text{f(x)}=\text{x}-3$

Multiplying by 5

$15\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)+25\text{f(x)}=5\text{x}-15\ ...(\text{iii})$

Solving (ii) and (iii),

$-16\text{f(x)}=\frac{3}{\text{x}}-5\text{x}+6$

$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\frac{1}{16}\Big(-\frac{3}{\text{x}}+5\text{x}-6\Big)$

  • B
    $\frac{5}{2}$
  • C
    $-1$
  • D
    None of these.
Answer
  1. $-\frac{7}{4}$

Solution:

$2\text{f(x)}-3\text{f}\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)=\text{x}^2\ ...(\text{i})$ $(\text{x}\neq0)$

Replacing x by $\frac{1}{\text{x}}$

Solving equations (i) & (ii)

$-5\text{f(x)}=\frac{3}{\text{x}^2}+2\text{x}^2$

$\Rightarrow\text{f(x)}=\frac{-1}{5}\Big(\frac{3}{\text{x}^2}+2\text{x}^2\Big)$

Thus, $\text{f(2)}=\frac{-1}{5}\Big(\frac{3}{4}+2\times4\Big)$

Now,

$\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)=\cos\Big(\cos\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)\Big)=\cos(\log\text{x}-\log\text{y})$

and

$\text{f(xy)}=\cos(\log\text{xy})=\cos(\log\text{x}+\log\text{y})$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)+\text{f(xy)}=\cos(\log\text{x}-\log\text{y})+\cos(\log\text{x}+\log\text{y})$

$\Rightarrow\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)+\text{f(xy)}=2\cos(\log\text{x})\cos(\log\text{y})$

$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}\Big[\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)+\text{f(xy)}\Big]=\cos(\log\text{x})\cos(\log\text{y})$

$\Rightarrow\text{f(x})\text{f}(\text{y})-\frac{1}{2}\Big\{\text{f}\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)+\text{f}\big(\text{x}\text{y}\big)\Big\}\\=\cos(\log\text{x})\cos(\log\text{y})-\cos(\log\text{x})\cos(\log\text{y})=0$

$\text{f(x)}=\log\Big(\frac{1+\text{x}}{1-\text{x}}\Big)$ and $\text{g(x)}=\frac{3\text{x}+\text{x}^3}{1+3\text{x}^2}$

Now,

$\frac{1+\text{g(x)}}{1-\text{g(x)}}=\frac{1+\frac{3\text{x}+\text{x}^3}{1+3\text{x}^2}}{1-\frac{3\text{x}+\text{x}^3}{1+3\text{x}^2}}$

$=\frac{1+3\text{x}^2+3\text{x}+\text{x}^3}{1+3\text{x}^2-3\text{x}-\text{x}^3}$

$=\frac{(1+\text{x})^3}{(1-\text{x})^3}$

Then, $\text{f}(\text{g(x)})=\log=\log\Big(\frac{1+\text{g(x)}}{1-\text{g(x)}}\Big)$

The domain of definition of $\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{\text{x}-3-2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}}-\sqrt{\text{x}-3+2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}}$ is:
  • A
    $\big[4,\infty\big)$
  • B
    $\big(-\infty,4\big]$
  • C
    $(4,\infty)$
  • D
    $(-\infty,4)$
Answer
  1. $\big[4,\infty\big)$

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{\text{x}-3-2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}}-\sqrt{\text{x}-3+2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}}$

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.

Similarly, $\text{x}-3+2\sqrt{\text{x}-4}\geq0$ is always true.

Thus, domain $(\text{f(x)})=\big[4,\infty)$

    $\big(-\infty,-2\big]\cap\big[2,-\infty\big)$
  • B
    $\big[-1,1\big]$
  • C
    $\phi$
  • D
    None of these.
Answer
  1. $\phi$

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{\frac{\text{x}-2}{\text{x}+2}}+\sqrt{\frac{1-\text{x}}{1+\text{x}}}$

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 $\frac{1-\text{x}}{1+\text{x}}\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\frac{(1-\text{x})(1+\text{x})}{(1+\text{x})^2}\geq0$

$\Rightarrow(1-\text{x})(1+\text{x})\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{ x}\in\big(-\infty,-1\big)\cup\big[1,\infty\big)\ ...(\text{iv})$

From (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) we get

$\text{x }\in\phi$

Thus, domain $(\text{f(x)})=\phi$

  • A
    {0, 1, 2}
  • B
    {0, -1, -2}
  • C
    {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2}
  • D
    none of these.
Answer
  1. {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2}

Solution:

$\text{R}=\{(\text{x, y}):\text{x, y}\in\text{Z},\text{ x}^2+\text{y}^2\leq4\}$

We know that,

$(-2)^2+0^2\leq4$

$\Rightarrow(2)^2+0^2\leq4$

$\Rightarrow(-1)^2+0^2\leq4$

$\Rightarrow(1)^2+0^2\leq4$

$\Rightarrow(-1)^2+(1)^2\leq4$

$\Rightarrow0^2+0^2\leq4$

$\Rightarrow(1)^2+(1)^2\leq4$

$\Rightarrow(-1)^2+(-1)^2\leq4$

Hence, domain(R) = {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2}

  • D
    $\text{x}\in\text{R},\text{ x}\neq0$
Answer

Solution:

Given,

$\text{f(x)}=\text{x},\text{ g(x)}=\frac{1}{\text{x}}$ and $\text{h(x)}=\text{f(x)}\text{g(x)}$

Now,

$\text{h(x)}=\text{x}\times\frac{1}{\text{x}}=1$

Answer
  1. 0.5

Solution:

$\text{e}^{\text{f(x)}}=\frac{10+\text{x}}{10-\text{x}}$

$\Rightarrow\text{ f(x)}=\log_\text{e}\Big(\frac{10+\text{x}}{10-\text{x}}\Big)\ ...(\text{i})$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{f(x)}=\text{kf}\Big(\frac{200\text{x}}{100+\text{x}^2}\Big)$

$\Rightarrow\ \log_\text{e}\Big(\frac{10+\text{x}}{10-\text{x}}\Big)=\text{k}\log_\text{e}\Bigg(\frac{10+\frac{200\text{x}}{100+\text{x}^2}}{10-\frac{200\text{x}}{100+\text{x}^2}}\Bigg)$ {from (1)}

$\Rightarrow\ \log_\text{e}\Big(\frac{10+\text{x}}{10-\text{x}}\Big)=\text{k}\log_\text{e}\Big(\frac{1000+10\text{x}^2+200\text{x}}{1000+10\text{x}^2-200\text{x}}\Big)$

$\Rightarrow\ \log_\text{e}\Big(\frac{10+\text{x}}{10-\text{x}}\Big)=\text{k}\log_\text{e}\bigg(\frac{(\text{x}+10)^2}{(\text{x}-10)^2}\bigg)$

$\Rightarrow\ \log_\text{e}\Big(\frac{10+\text{x}}{10-\text{x}}\Big)=2\text{k}\log_\text{e}\frac{(\text{x}+10)}{(\text{x}+10)}$

Answer
  1.  $(-\infty,-3]\cup(2,5)$

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=\sqrt{\frac{\text{x}+3}{(2-\text{x})(\text{x}-5)}}$

For f(x) to be defined,

$(2-\text{x})(\text{x}-5)\neq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\neq2,5\ ...(\text{i})$

Also, $\frac{(\text{x}+3)}{(2-\text{x})(\text{x}-5)}\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\frac{(\text{x}+3)(2-\text{x})(\text{x}-5)}{(2-\text{x})^2(\text{x}-5)^2}\geq0$

$\Rightarrow(\text{x}+3)(\text{x}-2)(\text{x}-5)\leq0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\in\big(-\infty,-3\big]\cap(2,5)\ ...(\text{ii})$

From (i) and (ii)

The function f(x) = x - [x] has period of:
  • A
    1
  • B
    2
  • C
    3
  • D
    4
Answer
  1. 1

Solution:

Let 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

Answer
  1. $\text{R}-\Big\{\frac{1}{2},1\Big\}$

Solution:

$\text{f(x)}=\frac{\text{x}^2-\text{x}}{\text{x}^2+2\text{x}}$

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, $\text{x}\neq0$

$\Rightarrow\frac{2\text{y}+1}{1-\text{y}}\neq0$

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:
  • A
    1
  • B
    2
  • C
    3
  • D
    4
Answer
  1. 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 × 11

So n = 2 × 11 = 22.

Now n2 = 22 × 22 = 484

So, the number of digit in n2 = 3.
