Q1. If A is any square matrix, then
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

For every square matrix (A + A’ ) is always symmetric.

Q2. The number of all selections which a student can make for answering one or more questions out of 8 given questions in a paper, when each question has an alternative, is:
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Since a student can solve every question in three ways- either he can attempt the first alternative , or the second alternative  or he does not attemp that question 

Hence the total ways in which a sudent can attempt one or more of  8 questions =

Therefore  to find the number of all selections which a student can make for answering one or more questions ou tof 8 given questions =   [ we will have to exclude  only the case of not answering all the 8 questions]


Q3. Equation of a plane that cuts the coordinates axes at (a, 0, 0), (0, b, 0) and (0, 0, c) is
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

Equation of a plane that cuts the coordinates axes at (a, 0, 0), (0, b, 0) and (0, 0, c) is called the equation of plane in intercept form having intercepts a , b , and c on coordinate axis i.e. at x- axis , y – axis and z – axis respectively is given by : .

Q4. Solution of is
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:



Q5. The complex numbers sinx + i cos2x and cosx – i sin2x are conjugate to each other, for
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:


which is not possible.

Hence we can say there is no solution for the system of equations


Q6. The coefficient of  
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:



Q7. If A = { 0,1,5,4,7 }. Then the total number subsets of A are
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

in any set having n elements then Total no of subsets=2n

so total subset = 25=32


Q8.   is equal to

Q9. A factory makes tennis rackets and cricket bats. A tennis racket takes 1.5 hours of machine time and 3 hours of craftman’s time in its making while a cricket bat takes 3 hour of machine time and 1 hour of craftman’s time. In a day, the factory has the availability of not more than 42 hours of machine time and 24 hours of craftsman’s time. If the profit on a racket and on a bat is Rs 20 and Rs 10 respectively, find the maximum profit of the factory when it works at full capacity?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Let number of rackets made = x
And number of bats made = y
Therefore , the above L.P.P. is given as :
Maximise , Z = x +y , subject to the constraints : 1.5x +3y ≤ 42 and. 3x +y ≤ 24, i.e.0.5x + y ≤ 14 i.e. x +2y ≤ 28 and 3x +y ≤ 24 , x, y ≥ 0.

B(4,12)

16…………………(Max.)

Here Z = 16 is maximum. i.e Maximum number of rackets = 4 and number of bats = 12.
Here , profit function is P = 20x + 10y
Profit is maximum at x = 4 and y = 12 .
Therefore , maximum profit = 20(4) + 10 ( 12) = 200.i.e. Rs.200.
