Find the value of $$\int\limits_{ - 1}^{3/2} {\left| {x\sin \,\pi \,x} \right|\,dx} $$
Answer
(C)
$$\frac{3}{\pi} + \frac{1}{\pi^2}$$
2
Show that $$\int\limits_0^\pi {xf\left( {\sin x} \right)dx} = {\pi \over 2}\int\limits_0^\pi {f\left( {\sin x} \right)dx.} $$
Answer
(B)
Let $I = int_0^pi xf(sin x) dx$. Substitute $u = pi - x$, then $I = int_0^pi (pi - u)f(sin(pi - u)) du = int_0^pi (pi - x)f(sin x) dx = piint_0^pi f(sin x) dx - int_0^pi xf(sin x) dx = piint_0^pi f(sin x) dx - I$. Hence $2I = piint_0^pi f(sin x) dx$, so $I = rac{pi}{2}int_0^pi f(sin x) dx$.

If $$A$$ and $$B$$ are two events such that $$P\left( A \right) > 0,$$ and $$P\left( B \right) \ne 1,$$ then $$P\left( {{{\overline A } \over {\overline B }}} \right)$$ is equal to
Answer
(C)
$${{1 - P\left( {A \cup B} \right)} \over {P\left( {\overline B } \right)}}$$ (Here $$\overline A $$ and $$\overline B $$ are complements of $$A$$ and $$B$$ respectively).
5
$$A$$ and $$B$$ are two candidates seeking admission in $$IIT.$$ The probability that $$A$$ is selected is $$0.5$$ and the probability that both $$A$$ and $$B$$ are selected is atmost $$0.3$$. Is it possible that the probability of $$B$$ getting selected is $$0.9$$ ?
Answer
(C)
No, because P(A ∩ B) ≤ P(A) and P(A ∩ B) ≤ P(B), therefore P(B) cannot be 0.9.

Answer

The summation can be simplified using vector properties and the regularity of the polygon.

$$mn$$ squares of equal size are arranged to from a rectangle of dimension $$m$$ by $$n$$, where $$m$$ and $$n$$ are natural numbers. Two squares will be called ' neighbours ' if they have exactly one common side. A natural number is written in each square such that the number written in any square is the arithmetic mean of the numbers written in its neighbouring squares.Show that this is possible only if all the numbers used are equal.
Answer
(B)
If the numbers are not all equal, a contradiction arises from considering the maximum value.
14
Show that the equation $${e^{\sin x}} - {e^{ - \sin x}} - 4 = 0$$ has no real solution.
Answer
(A)
The function $$f(x) = e^{\sin x} - e^{-\sin x} - 4$$ is always greater than 0, thus no real solution exists.
