Question.14.Solve the following differential equation:

Solution.

Question.15.Find the particular solution, satisfying the given condition, for the following differential equation:

Question.16.By using properties of determinants, prove the following:

Solution.

Question.17.A die is thrown again and again until three sixes are obtained. Find the probability of obtaining the third six in the sixth throw of the die.
Solution.

Getting a six third time at the 6th throw means outcome at 6th place is a six. Out of first five throws, two outcomes are sixes, three outcome are non sixes.

Question.18.Differentiate the following function w.r.t.

Solution.

Question.19.

Solution.


Solution.

Question.20. Prove that the relation R in the set A = {1,2,3,4,5} given by R={(a, b): \a-b\ is even}, is an equivalence relation.
Solution: A = {1,2,3,4,5}
R = {(a, b): \ a – b \ is even}
For equivalence relation, the relation must be (i) reflexive, (ii) symmetric and (iii) transitive.
Now, R = {(1,3), (2,4), (3,5), (1,5), (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), (3,1), (4,2), (5,3), (5,1)}
(i) Reflexive: Since 1R1,2R2,3R3,4R4,5R5
.^..R is reflexive.
(ii)Symmetric: Since

A tank with rectangular base and rectangular sides, open at the top is to be constructed so that its depth is 2 m and volume is 8 m³. If building of tank costs Rs 70 per sq. metre for the base and Rs 45 per sq. metre for sides, what is the cost of least expensive tank ?
Solution:

Question.24.A diet is to contain at least 80 units of vitamin A and 100 units of minerals. Two foods F₁ and F2 are available. Food F₁ costs Rs. 4 per unit and F₂ costs ? 6 per unit. One unit of food F₁ contains 3 units of vitamin A and 4 units of minerals. One unit of food F₂ contains 6 units of vitamin A and 3 units of minerals. Formulate this as a linear programming problem and find graphically the minimum cost for diet that consists of mixture of these two foods and also meets the minimal nutritional requirements.
