(v) (c) 945

 Explanation :

List of first 14 natural numbers, where each number is divisible by 9 is :
9, 18, 27, .................. .

Clearly, this list forms an A. P.

First term of A.P. (a) = 9

Common difference (d) = 9

We know,

Sn = n/2 [2a + (n – 1)d]
Sn = 14/2 [2×9 + (14 – 1)9]

= 7[18 + 117]

= 945

Required sum = 945

(vi) (d) (2, – 1)

 Explanation :

(vii) (b) 6 cm

 Explanation :

In ΔADE and DABC

∠ADE = ∠ABC  [Corresponding angles]

∠A = ∠A [Common angle]

∠ADE ~ ∠ABC [AA similarity rule]

AD/AB=AE/AC

⇒ 2/6=AE/9

⇒ AE = 3 cm

CE = AC – AE

= 9 – 3 = 6 cm.

(viii) (b) 2.5

 Explanation :

Inequality 7 – 3x (-1/2)

⇒  – 3x (-1/2) - 7

⇒ – 3x (-15/2)

⇒ x ≤ 15/6

⇒ x ≤ 2.5

Greatest value of x = 2.5

(ix) (d) 8

 Explanation :

No. of possible outcomes n(S) = n(HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT)
= 8.

(x) (b) 48π cm2

 Explanation :
Let r = 2a and h = 3a Given Volume = πr2h = 96π cm3 ⇒ π × (2a)2 × 3a = 96π ⇒ 12a3 = 96 ⇒ a3 = 8 ⇒ a = 2 r = 2 × 2 = 4 cm and h = 2 × 3 = 6 cm Hence,   Curved surface area = 2πrh = 2 ×π × 4 × 6 = 48π cm2.

(xi) (d) 2

 Explanation :

$$\begin{bmatrix}x-2y & 5\\ 3 & y\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}6 & 5\\3 & -2\end{bmatrix}\\\text{}\\\text{Comparing, we get}\\\text{}\\\text{y = -2}$$

and x – 2y = 6

⇒ x – 2(–2) = 6

⇒ x + 4 = 6

⇒ x = 6 – 4 = 2

(xii) (b) y = 2x

 Explanation :

Let the equation be y = mx + c

As the slope is 2, y = 2x + c

as it is passing through (1,2), substituting this in the given equation

2 = 2 × 1 + c

⇒ c = 0 Hence, the equation is y = 2x

(xiii) (b) ∠A = ∠B

 Explanation :

The angles at the circumference subtended by the same arc are equal.

(xiv) (c) n(n+1)/√2

 Explanation :

Given: series is, √2+√8+√18+√32+.........

⇒ √2+2√2+3√2+4√2+......+n√2

⇒√2(1+2+3+4+.....+n)

We know that,

$$\sum^n_{i=1}k = \text{1+2+3+…..+n.}\\\text{}\\=\frac{\text{n(n+1)}}{\text{2}}\\\text{}\\=\sqrt{2}\bigg[{\frac{n(n+1)}{2}}\bigg]\text{ We know that,}\\\text{}\\ \therefore \text{}=\sqrt{2}\text{(1+2+3+…..+n)}\\ \text{}\\ = \frac{\text{n(n+1)}}{\sqrt{2}}$$

Answer 3.

(i) For cylinder 1 :

Diameter = 24 cm

Radius, R = 24/2 = 12 cm

Height, H = 220 cm

For cylinder 2 :

Radius, r = 8 cm

Height, h = 60 cm

Total volume of iron in two cylinders = πR2H + πr2h

= π(144 × 220 + 64 × 60) cm3

= 3.14 × 35520 = 111532.8 cm3

Total mass of iron = 111532.8 × 8 g

=111532.8 ×8/1000 kg

892.26 kg (approximately). Ans.

Answer 4.

(i) When the product is sold from Agra to Kanpur (intra - state transaction) :
For dealer in Agra :

S.P = ₹ 20,000

CGST = 9% of ₹ 20,000 = ₹ 1,800

SGST = 9% of ₹ 20,000 = ₹1,800

When product is sold from Kanpur to Jaipur (inter- state transaction):
For the dealer in Kanpur :

Input tax credit = ₹1,800 + ₹ 1,800 = ₹ 3,600

C.P = ₹ 20,000 and Profit = ₹ 5,000

S.P = ₹ 20,000 + ₹ 5,000 = ₹ 25,000

IGST = 18% of 25,000 = ₹ 4,500

Net GST paid by the dealer at Kanpur

= Output GST – Input GST

= 4,500 – 3,600 = ₹ 900

The cost of goods/services at Jaipur

= S.P in Kanpur + IGST

= 25,000 + 18% of 25,000

= 25,000 + 4,500 = ₹ 29,500

IGST = 18% of 25,000 = ₹ 4,500 

= Output GST – Input GST

= 4,500 – 3,600 = ₹ 900

The cost of goods/services at Jaipur

= S.P in Kanpur + IGST

= 25,000 + 18% of 25,000

= 25,000 + 4,500 = ₹ 29,500

(ii) Given equation is,

(k + 1)x2 – 4kx + 9 = 0

Here, a = (k + 1), b = – 4k, c = 9

For real and equal roots,

D = b2 – 4ac = 0
⇒ (– 4k)2 – 4(k + 1)9 = 0
⇒ 16k2 – 36(k + 1) = 0

16k2 – 36k – 36 = 0

Dividing both sides by 4, we get

4k2 – 9k – 9 = 0
⇒ 4k2 – 12k + 3k – 9 = 0

⇒ 4k(k – 3) + 3(k – 3) = 0

⇒ (k – 3)(4k + 3) = 0

k – 3 = 0 4k + 3 = 0

k = 3   k = − 3/4

For k = 3, the equation will be

4x2 – 12x + 9 = 0
⇒ 4x2 – 6x – 6x + 9 = 0

⇒ 2x(2x – 3) – 3(2x – 3) = 0

⇒ (2x – 3)2 = 0

⇒ x = 3/2, 3/2

For k = – 3/4 , the equation will be

(-3+1/4)x2-4(-3/4)x+9=0
⇒ 1x2/4 + 3x + 9 = 0
⇒ x2 + 12x + 36 = 0
⇒ x2 + 6x + 6x + 36 = 0

⇒ x(x + 6) + 6(x + 6) = 0

⇒ (x + 6)2 = 0

⇒ x = – 6, – 6.

Hence, x = 3 /2 , − 6.

$$\text{(i) We have}\\\text{}\\ \text{x+y}=\begin{bmatrix}5&2\\0&9\end{bmatrix}\\ \text{}\\ \text{and }\text{X-Y=}\begin{bmatrix}3&6\\0&-1\end{bmatrix}\\ \text{}\\ \text{Now }\text{(X+Y)+(X-Y)=}\begin{bmatrix}5&2\\0&9\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}3&6\\0&-1\end{bmatrix}\\ \text{}\\ \Rightarrow 2X = \begin{bmatrix}8&8\\0&8\end{bmatrix}\\ \\ \text{}\\ \Rightarrow X = \frac{1}{2} \begin{bmatrix}8&8\\0&8\end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix}4&4\\0&4\end{bmatrix}\\\text{}\\\text{}\text{Also }\text{(X+Y)-(X-Y)=}\begin{bmatrix}5&2\\0&9\end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix}3&6\\0&-1\end{bmatrix}\\\text{}\\ \Rightarrow \text{ }\text{2Y}=\begin{bmatrix}2&-4\\0&10\end{bmatrix}\\ \text{}\\ \Rightarrow \text{ }\text{Y=}\frac{1}{2}\begin{bmatrix}2&-4\\0&10\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}1&-2\\0&5\end{bmatrix}\\\text{}\\ \text{Thus, } X = \begin{bmatrix}4&4\\0&4\end{bmatrix}\text{and Y =}\begin{bmatrix}1&-2\\0&5\end{bmatrix}\text{ Ans.}$$

(ii) Given, ∠SRT = 65° and SP is tangent

∠TSR = 90° [Angle between the radius and tangent]

∴ ∠SRT + ∠STR = ∠TSR = 90°

⇒ ∠STR = ∠TSR – ∠SRT

∠STR = x° = 90° – 65° = 25°

∠y° = 2∠x°

[Angle subtended at the centre is double that of the angle subtended by the arc at same circle]

∴ ∠y° = 2 × 25° = 50°

and ∠SPO = ∠OSP – ∠SOP

∴ ∠SPO = ∠z = 90° – 50° = 40°

Hence, ∠x = 25°, ∠y = 50° and ∠z = 40°.  Ans.

(iii) Given expression is 2x3 – x2 – px – 2 and x – 2 is the factor.

(a) Put x – 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2 in expression, we get

2(2)3 – (2)2 – p(2) – 2 = 0

⇒ 16 – 4 – 2p – 2 = 0

⇒ 10 – 2p = 0

⇒ p = 5  Ans.

(b) Putting the value of p, the expression becomes 2x3 – x2 – 5x – 2.

Dividing the expression by (x – 2),

$$\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space(2x^2+3x+1)\\x-2)\overline{2x^3-x^2-5x-2}\\\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space 2x^3-4x^2\\ \space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space -\space\space\space\space\space+\\\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\overline{\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space3x^2-5x}\\\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space3x^2-6x\\\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space-\space\space\space\space\space+\\\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\overline{\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space x-2}\\\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space x-2\\\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space-\space\space\space+\\\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\space\overline{\space\space\space\space\space ×\space\space\space\space\space\space}$$

∴ 2x3 – x2 – 5x – 2 = (x – 2)(2x2 + 3x + 1)

= (x – 2) {2x2 + (2 + 1) x + 1}

= (x – 2) (2x2 + 2x + x + 1)

= (x – 2) {2x (x + 1) +1 (x + 1)}

= (x – 2) (2x + 1) (x + 1) Ans.

Answer 6.

(i) Given, A(7, – 3) and B(1, 9).

∴ No. of favourable outcomes = 1

∴ P (a ‘10’ of hearts) = 1/49. Ans.

(ii) According to the question,

2/3 (Volume of hemisphere) = Volume of cone

2/3(2 πr3/3) = -1πr2h/3
4/9 (3.5)3=1/3(3.5)2.h

h =4 ×  3.5 × 3.5 × 3.5 × 3/3.5 × 3.5 × 9

42.0/9

14m/3 = 4.67 m

Slant height of cone, l = √r2+h2
=√(3.5)2+(4.67)2

35m/6 

Now,  Surface area of buoy = Surface area of right cone + Surface area of hemisphere

= πrl + 2πr2

= pr(l + 2r)

22/7 × 3.5 ((35/6)+2 × 3.5)

= 11 × (5.83 + 7)

= 11 × 12.83

 = 141.13 m2 Ans.

(iii) Given, AB is a diameter.

and  ∠BAC = 40°.

In ΔABC

∴ ∠ABC + ∠ACB + ∠BAC = 180° [Sum of angles in a D is 180°]

⇒  ∠ABC + 90° + 40° = 180°

∠ABC = 180° – 130° = 50°

Now, ∠ACT = ∠ABC [Angles in alternate segment]

⇒ ∠ACT = 50°. Ans.

Σf = 20 Σfx = 480

∴ Arithmetic mean = Σfx/Σf=480/20=24

(iii) Given, ∠ABC = ∠DAC = x (say)

AB = 8 cm, AC = 4 cm, AD = 5 cm.

(a) In ΔACD andΔBCA

∠ABC = ∠DAC [Given]

∠ACD = ∠BCA [Common]

∴ ΔACD ~ ΔBCA [AA axiom]

Hence ΔACD is similar to ΔBCA. Hence Proved.

(b) ΔACD ~ ΔBCA

∴ AC/BC=CD/CA=AD/BA  [Corresponding parts of similar triangles]

⇒  4/BC=CD/4=5/8

⇒ 4/BC = 5/8

⇒ BC = 8 x 4/5=32/5=6.4 CM

and CD/4 = 5/8

⇒ CD = 5 x 4 /8

⇒ CD = 2.5 cm. Ans.

Answer 9.

(i) The original cost of each book = ₹ x.

Total cost = ₹ 960

No. of books purchased = 960/x

If the price was ₹ 8 less, the cost of each book = ₹ (x – 8)water.

No. of books purchased = 960/x -8

According to question,

(960/x-8)-(960/x) = 4

960(1/x-8)-(1/x) = 4

960 x (x-x+8)/x(x-8)=4

⇒ 960 × 8 = 4x (x – 8)

⇒ 4x2 – 32x = 7680
⇒ x2 – 8x – 1920 = 0
⇒ x2 – 48x + 40x – 1920 = 0

⇒ x (x – 48) + 40 (x – 48) = 0

⇒ (x – 48) (x + 40) = 0

⇒ x – 48 = 0  or   x + 40 = 0

⇒ x = 48 or x = – 40 (not possible)

x = 48

The original cost of each book = ₹ 48.

(ii) 

Marks No. of Students c.f.
0 – 10 5 5
10 – 20 11 16
20 – 30 10 26
30 – 40 20 46
50 – 60 37 111
60 – 70 40 151
70 – 80 29 180
80 – 90 14 194
90 – 100 6 200

∴ N = 200 [even]

(a) Median = Nth/2 value

= 100th value

= 57 marks (from ogive) Ans.

(b) No. of students scoring less than 40 marks = 45.

Answer 10.

(i) We have,

(x4+1)/2x2=17/8
(x4+1+2x2)/(x4+1-2x2)=17+8/17+8
⇒( (x2)2+2.x2.1+1)/( (x2)2-2.x2.1+1)=25/9
⇒ (x2 +1)2/(x2 -1)2 =25/9
⇒ (x2+1)/(x2 - 1) =5/3
⇒  5(x2 – 1) = 3(x2 + 1)
⇒ 5x2 – 5 = 3x2 + 3
⇒ 5x2 – 3x2 = 3 + 5
⇒  2x2 = 8
⇒ x2 = 4

⇒  x = ± 2. Ans.
