Question 1.
*The comer points of the feasible region determined by the following system of linear inequalities are (0,0), (5, 0), (3, 4) and (0, 5):
2x + y ≤ 10, x + 3y ≤ 15, x, y ≥ 0
Let Z = px+ qy, where p, q > 0
Condition on p and q so that the maximum of Z occurs at both (3, 4) and (0, 5) is:
(a) P = q
(b) p = 2q
(c) p = 3q
(d) q = 3p [1]
Answer:
(d) q = 3p

Explanation: Let the maximum value of Z be M. Then,
At (3, 4), M = 3p + 4q ….. (i)
At (0, 5), M = 5q ….. (ii)
From (i) and (ii), we have
3p + 4q = 5q
⇒ 3p = q

Question 2.
Mrs. Malhotra has decided to set up a sinking fund for the purpose of buying a computer in two years. It is expected that the computer will cost ₹ 20,000 at the end of 2 years. The size of equal quarterly installment she has to pay into the fund, if money’s worth 10% p.a. compounded quarterly, is
(a) ₹ 2290
(b) ₹ 2280
(c) ₹ 2350
(d) ₹ 3290 [1]
Answer:
(a) 2290

Explanation:
Here,
i = \(\frac{r}{4}\) = 0.025 ; A = ₹ 20,000 and n = 2 × 4 = 8
Let R be the quarterly installment, then, using the formula R = \(\frac{\mathrm{Ai}}{(1+i)^n-1}\)
we get R = 2290 (approx..)

(a) 25%
(b) 50%
(c) 75%
(d) 100% [1]
Answer:
(b) 50%

Explanation: Here,
Z = \(\frac{X-75}{10}\)
Thus, P( X > 75) = P(Z > 0) = 0.5
Hence, the percentage of students who scored more than 75 marks is 50%.
So, (b) is the correct option

Question 8.
For a fish merchant, the probability of getting daily profit of ₹ 1500 is 0.6, the probability of getting a loss of ₹ 1000 is 0.3 and the probability of getting neither profit nor loss is 0.1. Then, the mean daily profit of the fish merchant is
(a) ₹ 500
(b) ₹ 900
(c) ₹ 400
(d) ₹ 600 [1]
Answer:
(d) ₹ 600

Explanation: The possible outcomes, their probabilities and the corresponding values of gains(x) are shown below:

Outcome Probability(p) Gain (x) x. p.
Profit 0.6 1500 900
Loss 0.3 1000 -300
No profit nor loss 0.1 0 0

E(X) = \(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i p_i\) = 900 – 300 + 0 = 600
So, the correct option is (d)

Question 9.
Which of the following differential equations has y = c1ex + c2e-x as the general solution?
(a) \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\) + y = 0
(b) \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\) – y = 0
(c) \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\) + 1 = 0
(d) \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\) – 1 = 0
Answer:
(b) \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\) – y = 0

Explanation: On differentiating the given equation y = c1ex c2e-x, we have \(\frac{d y}{d x}\), c1ex – c2e-x
On differentiating once again,
we have \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\) = c1ex – c2e-x = y
⇒ \(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\) – y = 0
Hence, (b) is the correct option.

Question 10.
If \(\frac{d}{d x}\)f(x) = 4x3 – \(\frac{3}{x^4}\) such that f(2) = 0. Then, f(x) is
(a) x4 + \(\frac{1}{x^3}\) – \(\frac{129}{8}\)
(b) x3 + \(\frac{1}{x^4}\) + \(\frac{129}{8}\)
(c) x4 + \(\frac{1}{x^3}\) + \(\frac{129}{8}\)
(a) x3 + \(\frac{1}{x^4}\) + \(\frac{129}{8}\) [1]
Answer:
(a) x4 + \(\frac{1}{x^3}\) – \(\frac{129}{8}\)

Explanation: Here, \(\frac{d}{d x}\)
f(x) = 4x3 – \(\frac{3}{x^4}\)
Integrating both sides, we have
f(x) = \(\int\left(4 x^3-\frac{3}{x^4}\right) d x\)
= \(\int 4 x^3 d x-\int \frac{3}{x^4} d x\)
= \(4 \int x^3 d x-3 \int x^{-4} d x\)
= x4 + x-3 + C
Since f(2) = 0, we have (2)4 + (2)-3 + C = 0
⇒ C = \(-\frac{129}{8}\)
Hence, f(x) = x4 + \(\frac{1}{x^3}\) – \(\frac{129}{8}\)

Question 11.
Let x be a number which exceeds its square by the greatest possible quantity. Then, x is equal to
(a) \(\frac{1}{2}\)
(b) \(\frac{1}{4}\)
(c) \(\frac{3}{4}\)
(d) \(\frac{1}{3}\)
Answer:
(a) \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Explanation:
Let
f(x) = x – x2. Then, f'(x) = 1 – 2x and f “(x) = -2
f'(x) = 0 implies 1 – 2x = 0, or x = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
i.e., x = \(\frac{1}{2}\) is a critical point.
Now, f”(\(\frac{1}{2}\)) = -2 < 0 So, f'(x) is maximum when x = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Thus, (a) is the correct option

Question 12.

(d) 26 m [1]
Answer:
(b) 20 m

Explanation: To reach the winning post, A has to cover a distance of (500 – 140) = 360 m
Since the speeds of A and B is 3 : 4.
when A covers 360 m, B covers ₹ = 480 m
Therefore, A wins by (500 – 480) = 20 m

Two statements are given-one labelled Assertion (A) and the other labelled Reason (R). Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes (a), (b), (c) and (d) as given below:
(a) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
(b) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
(c) (A) is true but (R) is false.
(d) (A) is false but (R) is true

Question 19.
Assertion (A): Minor of element of in the matrix \(\left[\begin{array}{ccc}
0 & 2 & 6 \\
1 & 2 & -1 \\
2 & 1 & 3
\end{array}\right]\) is -3
Reason (R): Minor of an element aij of a matrix is the determinant obtained by deleting its ith row. [1]
Answer:
(c) (A) is true but (R) is false

Explanation:
M13 \(\left[\begin{array}{ll}
1 & 2 \\
2 & 1
\end{array}\right]\) = 1 – 4 = -3
So given assertion is true. The minor of an element aji of a matrix is the determinant obtained by deleting its ith row and jth column. So, reason is false.

Question 20.
Assertion (A) : The third derivative of y = logx is \(-\frac{2}{x^3}\)
Reason (R) : The differentiation process could be continued to find the third, fourth and successive derivatives of f(x), which are called higher order derivative of f(x).
Answer:
(d) (A)is false but (R) is true.

Explanation:
Given: y = log x,
\(\frac{d y}{d x}\) = \(\frac{1}{x}\)
\(\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\) = \(-\frac{1}{x^2}\)

Question 24.
If y = 7x – x3 and x increases at the rate of 4 units per second, how fast is the slope of the curve changing , when x = 2?
OR
Find: \(\int \frac{x}{\sqrt{2 x^2+3}} d x\)
[2]
Answer:
Given y = 7x – x3, we have \(\frac{d y}{d x}\)(m) = 7 – 3x2
⇒ \(\frac{d m}{d x}\) = -6x ….(1)
It is given that \(\frac{d x}{d t}\) = 4. We need to find \(\left(\frac{d m}{d t}\right)_{x=2}\)
From (1), we obtain \(\frac{d m}{d t}\) = \(\frac{d m}{d x}\) × \(\frac{d x}{d t}\) = (-6x)(4)
= -24x
\(\left(\frac{d m}{d t}\right)_{x=2}\) = -24(2) = -48
Thus, the slope of the curve is decreasing at the rate of 48 units per second.

OR

\(\int \frac{x}{\sqrt{2 x^2+3}} d x\)
Put 2x2 + 3 = t so that 4x dx = dt
or x dx = \(\frac{1}{4}\) dt
so, \(\int \frac{x}{\sqrt{2 x^2+3}}\)dx = \(\frac{1}{4} \int \frac{1}{\sqrt{t}} d t\)
= \(\frac{1}{4} \cdot 2 \sqrt{t}+C\) = \(\frac{\sqrt{2 x^2+3}}{2}\) + C

Question 25.
Amrit Singh will receive ₹ 10,000 at the end of the 4th year. Calculate the present value if the discount rate is 12% and discounting is done quarterly. (Given (1.03)-16 = 0.623) [2]
Answer:
Le P denote the present value of the amount A = ₹10,000. Then,
P = \(\mathrm{A}\left(1+\frac{r}{m}\right)^{-n m}\)
gives P = 10,000\(\left(1+\frac{0.12}{4}\right)^{-4 \times 4}\)
= 10,000(1.03)-16
= 10,000 × 0.623 = ₹6230

Question 26.
A man borrows ₹ 10,00, 000 and agrees to pay interest quarterly at an annual rate of interest of 8%. At the same time, he sets up a sinking fund in order to repay the loan at the end of 5 years. If the sinking fund earns interest @ 6% per annum, compounded quarterly, find the quarterly cost of the debt. {Given (1.015)20 = 1.346852} [3]
Answer:
Here, the amount borrowed = 10,00,000;
Rate of interest = 8% = 0.08.
So, quarterly interest payment on the loan
= ₹(10,00,000 × 0.02) = ₹ 20,000
Amount S to be accumulated in the sinking fund
= ₹10,00,000
Rate of interest = 6% = 0.06; and n = 5 years = 20 quarters
Since interest is compounded quarterly,
r = \(\frac{0.06}{4}\) = 0.015
Let ₹ A be the quarterly installment payable in the sinking fund. Then,
CBSE Sample Papers for Class 12 Applied Mathematics Set 10 with Solutions 10
Thus, the quarterly cost of the debt is ₹ 43,246 + ₹ 20,000, i.e ₹ 63,246.

Question 27.
Mr. X plans to set his son for higher studies abroad for 10 years. He expects the cost of the studies to be ₹ 2,00,000. How much must he set aside at the end of each quarter for 10 years to accumulate this amount, if money is worth 6% compounded annually. [Given (1.015)40 = 1.8140] [3]
Answer:
Here, A = x (say), r = \(\frac{6}{400}\) = 0.015 and n = 10 × 4=40
So, S = \(\frac{A}{r}\)[(1 + r)n – 1] gives
2,00,000 = \(\frac{x}{0.015}\)[(1.015)40 – 1]
⇒ S = \(\frac{3000}{[1.8140-1]}\)
= \(\frac{3000}{0.8140}\) = 3685.50
Thus, Mr.X should set aside a sum ₹3685.50

Corresponding value of Z

O(0, 0) 5(0) + 3(0) = 0
A(2, 0) 5(2) + 3(0) = 10
B(\( \frac{20}{19} \), \( \frac{45}{19} \)) 5(\( \frac{20}{19} \)) + 3(\( \frac{45}{19} \)) = \( \frac{235}{19} \) = 12\( \frac{7}{19} \))
C(0, 3) 5(0) + 3(3) = 9

Thus, maximum value of z is 12\(\frac{7}{19}\) which occurs at B(\(\frac{20}{19}\), \(\frac{45}{19}\))

Question 29.
Three pipes A, B and C can fill a tank together in 8 hours. After working at it together for 2 hours B is closed and A and C can fill the remaining part of the tank in 9 hours. Find the time in which B alone can fill the tank. [3]
Answer:
Part of the tank that will be filled by three pipes together in 2 hours = 2/8 = 1/4
Remaining part of the tank = 1 – 1/4= 3/4 In 9 hours, A and C can fill 3/4 of the tank.
So, in 1 hour, A and C can fill (3/4 × 1/9 ), i.e., 1/12 of the tank Further,
Part of the tank that will be filled by three pipes together in 1 hour = 1/8
Part of the tank that will be filled by B alone = 1/8 – 1/12 = 1/24
So, B alone can fill the tank in 24 hours.

Answer:
Since Σ(X = xi) = 1
0 + k + 2k + 2k + 3k + k2 + 2k2 + 7k2 + k = 1

(A) 9k + 10k2 = 1(10k – 1)(k + 1) = 0
⇒ k = \(\frac{1}{10}\) {k ≠ -1}

(B) P(X < 6) = 1 – {P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)}
= 1 – \(\left\{\frac{2}{100}+\frac{17}{100}\right\}\)
= \(\frac{81}{100}\), or 0.81

(C) P(X ≥ 6) = P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)
= \(\frac{2}{100}\) + \(\frac{17}{100}\) = \(\frac{19}{100}\) or 0.19

OR

Here the variable X is the number of white balls obtained among the 3 balls drawn. Then X takes values 0, 1, 2, 3
P(X = 0) = P(0 white ball)

Question 33.
The rate of growth of a population is proportional to the number present, If the population of a city doubled in the past 25 years and the present population is 1,00,000, when will the city have a population of 5,00,000?
OR
Evaluate: \(\int_0^1 \frac{e^{-x}}{1+e^x} d x\) [5]
Answer:
Let P(t) be the population of a city at any time t Then,
\(\frac{d \mathrm{P}}{d t}\) = kP, where k is constant of proportionality.
⇒ \(\frac{d \mathrm{P}}{p}\) = k dt
Integrating both sides, we have = \(\int \frac{d P}{P}\) = \(\int k d t\)
Log P = kt + C … (1)
Let P0 be the initial population at t = 0.
Then , from (1), C = log Po
∴ From (1), we get log \(\left(\frac{P}{P_0}\right)\) = kt … (2)
Now P = 2P0 when t = 25. So, by (2),
we have log\(\left(\frac{2 \mathrm{P}_0}{\mathrm{P}_0}\right)\) = 25k, or k = \(\frac{1}{25}\) log 2
From (2), we have log\(\left(\frac{5,00,000}{1.00 .000}\right)\) = \(\frac{1}{25}\)log 2.t,
or log (5) = \(\frac{1}{25}\)log 2. t
t = 25\(\frac{\log 5}{\log 2}\) = 25 × \(\frac{1.609}{0.6931}\)
= 58 (approx.)
Thus, the city will, have a population of 5,00,000 in 58 years.

OR

Let I = \(\int_0^1 \frac{e^{-x}}{1+e^x} d x\)

Answer:
We have the following table:
CBSE Sample Papers for Class 12 Applied Mathematics Set 10 with Solutions 17
Here ΣPw = 24600 and Σw = 100
So, index number = \(\frac{\sum^{P w}}{\sum^w}\) = \(\frac{26400}{100}\) = 246
Again, construct the following table.
CBSE Sample Papers for Class 12 Applied Mathematics Set 10 with Solutions 18
Here, ΣPw = 15800 + 1oox and Σw = 100
So, index number = \(\frac{\sum^{P w}}{\sum^w}\) = \(\frac{15800+100 x}{100}\)
= 158 + x
Equating it to 175,
we have 175 = 158 + x
⇒ x = 17
Hence, the weights applied to B and D are 17 and 33, respectively.

OR

Here, n = 6(Even).
Let the equation of the straight line of best fit, with the origin at the mid of the years 2003 and 2004 and units of x as \(\frac{1}{2}\) year, be y = a + bx
By the method of least squares, the values of ‘a’ and ‘b’ are given by
a = \(\frac{\Sigma y}{n}\) and b = \(\frac{\Sigma x y}{\Sigma x^2}\) … (A)

Calculation for fitting the line of best fit

Year Value x x2 xy
2001 10 -5 25 -50
2002 20 -3 9 -60
2003 30 -1 1 -30
2004 56 1 1 56
2005 40 3 9 120
2006 60 5 25 300
Σy = 216 Σx = 0 Σx2 = 70 Σxy = 336

Using (A), we have
CBSE Sample Papers for Class 12 Applied Mathematics Set 10 with Solutions 19
Hence, the required equation of the best fitted straight line is y = 36 + 4.8 x

Year x Trending value (y = 36 + 4.8x)
2001 -5 36 + 4.8(-5) = 12
2002 -3 36 + (4.8)(-3) = 21.6
2003 -1 36 + 4.8(-1) = 31.2
2004 1 36 + 4.8(1) = 40.8
2005 3 36 + 4.8(3) = 50.4
2006 5 36 + 4.8(5) = 60

Thus, the trend values are 12, 21.6, 31.2, 40.8, 50.4 and 60
Estimate for the year 2007 = 36 +4.8(7) = 69.6

Question 35.
A zero coupon bond has ₹ 1000 face value with 25 years life. The appropriate rate of return is 9% p.a. What is the value of the zero coupon bond? Find out what should be the value of the bond after 10 years?
[Given (1.09)-25 = 0.11614 and (1.09)-10 = 0.42269) [5]
Answer:
Here,
F = Face value of the bond = 1000
n = number of periodic dividend payments = 25
i = Annual yield rate = 0.09
R = ₹ 0
Since the bond is to be redeemed at par,
C = Redemption price or Maturity value = Face value = ₹ 1000
Let V be the purchase value of the bond. Then,
CBSE Sample Papers for Class 12 Applied Mathematics Set 10 with Solutions 20
= ₹ 1000(0.11614) = ₹116
The value V of the bond after 10 years is given by
V = ₹ 1000 (1.09)-10)}
= ₹ 1000 (0.42 269) = 422,69
Thus, the value V of the bond after 10 years is ₹ 42 2.69.

This graph is constructed using three non trivial constraints and two trivial constraints one of the non-trivial constraints is x = 2y ≥ 0.
Based on the given information, answer the following question:
(A) What are the two trivial constraints. [1]
(B) If R2 is a feasible region, than what are the other two non-trivial constraints? [1]
(C) Given that the point (x, y) is in the region R1, then what is the maximum value of 5x + 2y?
OR
Given that the point (x, y) is in the region R2, than what is the maximum value of 5x + 2y. [2]
Answer:
(A) x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
From the graph we can see that x and y is greater than or equal to.

(B) Region R2 is bounded by 2x – y = 0 and 2x + y = 200 and shaded region is towards origin. Then, constraints are 2x – y ≥ 0, 2x + y ≥ 200.

(C)Here Z = 5x + 2y
ZA = 5 × 0 + 2 × 50= 100
ZB = 5 × 20 + 2 × 40 = 180
ZC = 5 × 50 + 2 × 100 = 450
ZD = 5 × 0 + 2 × 200 = 400
∴ Maximum value of z is 450.

OR

For region R2, the corner points are B(20, 40), C (50, 100) and E (100, 0)
Here, Z = 5x + 2y
∴ ZB = 5 × 20 + 2 × 40
= 100 + 50
= 180
= 5 × 50 + 2 × 100
= 250 + 200
= 450
ZE = 5 × 100 + 2 × 0
= 500
Hence, the maximum value is 500 at point E (100, 0).

In continuation, to get rid of sewage and waste water, the local department wish to construct an underground septic tank with a square base which can hold a given quantity V of water and sludge with a metal sheet in minimum cost. Assume the side of the square be V and height of the tank be ‘h’
Based on the given information, answer the following question:
(A) What is the relation among x, h and V? [1]
(B) What is the surface area S(x) of the tank? [1]
(C) What will be the relation between x and h for which the cost of construction will be the least?
OR
If V = 13500, find the value of x? [2]
Answer:
(A) Here, V = x2h
⇒ h = \(\frac{V}{x^2}\)
This is the required relation.

(B) Here, S(x) = x2 + 4xh
⇒ S(x) = x2 + 4x\(\left(\frac{V}{x^2}\right)\)
= x2 + \(\frac{4 \mathrm{~V}}{x}\)

(C) For S(x) = x2 + \(\frac{4 \mathrm{~V}}{x}\), S’X = 2x – \(\frac{4 \mathrm{~V}}{x^2}\) and S”(x) = 2 + \(\frac{2 \mathrm{~V}}{x^3}\)
Now, S'(x) = 0 implies 2x – \(\frac{4 \mathrm{~V}}{x^2}\) = 0,
ie, x3 = 2V
s”(x) = 2 + \(\frac{2 \mathrm{~V}}{2 \mathrm{~V}}\) = 3 < 0
So, S(x) is least when x3 = 2V, or h = \(\frac{x}{2}\)
Thus, cost wilt be least when h = \(\frac{x}{2}\)

OR

From (A) h = \(\frac{\mathrm{V}}{x^2}\) and h = \(\frac{x}{2}\)
⇒ \(\frac{V}{x^2}\) = \(\frac{x}{2}\) or, x3 = 2V
For V = 13,500, x3 = 27,000
⇒ x = 30
