HPSC PGT Mathematics Mock Test - 9 - Question 1

Which one is not a source of carbohydrate?

Detailed Solution for HPSC PGT Mathematics Mock Test - 9 - Question 1

Concept:

  • Food comprises constituents like proteins, carbohydrates, fats and supplementary substances such as minerals, vitamins and water that are vital for life.
  • These constituents are known as nutrients. For proper functioning of our body, we need to consume bodybuilding foods (e.g. milk, meat, poultry, fish, eggs, pulses, groundnuts); energy-giving foods (e.g. cereals, sugar, roots, fats and oils); and protective foods (e.g. vegetables, fruits).

Explanation:

  • Carbohydrates are the main source of energy for our body.
  • Carbohydrates are of two types – simple and complex.
  • Simple carbohydrates - These are quick-energy foods, e.g. sugar. Sources of simple carbohydrates are natural fruits, milk and milk products, and vegetables including potatoes and carrots.
  • Complex carbohydrates - These are better sources of energy than sugar since they are released slowly. Sources of complex carbohydrates are bread, cereals (rice, wheat, bajra, corn, barley, ragi, sorghum, millets etc.),

Gram is not a source of carbohydrate, it is a source of protein.

Additional Information

Proteins:

  • proteins are obtained from the animal as well as vegetable sources. Proteins of animal origin are found in milk, eggs, cheese, fish and meat.
  • Proteins from these sources contain all the essential amino acids (EAA) in adequate amounts.
  • Vegetable proteins are found in pulses (legumes), cereals, beans, nuts, oilseeds, etc

Detailed Solution for HPSC PGT Mathematics Mock Test - 9 - Question 2

Given:

The ratio of the present age of Annu and Raj = 4 : 5

Then after 8 years ratio of their age = 5 : 6

Calculation:

Let be assume the present age of Annu and Raj is 4x and 5x respectively

⇒ (4x + 8)/(5x + 8) = 5/6

⇒ 24x + 48 = 25x + 40

⇒ x = 8

⇒ The age of Annu = 4x = 4 × 8 = 32

⇒ The age of Raj = 5x = 5 × 8 = 40

∴ The required result will be 32 years, and 40 years respectively.

3. Scanner:

  • This device can scan images or text and convert it into a digital signal
  • When we place any piece of a document on a scanner, it converts it into a digital signal and displays it on the computer screen

Output Device: A piece of equipment/hardware that gives out the result of the entered input, once it is processed (i.e. converts data from machine language to a human-understandable language), is called an output device. For example printers, monitors, etc. 

Printer:

  • A device that makes a copy of the pictorial or textual content, usually over a paper is called a printer
  • For example, an author types the entire book on his/her computer and later gets a printout of it, which is in the form of paper and is later published
  • Multiple types of printers are also available in the market, which can serve different purposes
HPSC PGT Mathematics Mock Test - 9 - Question 4
To ensure the retention of students from socio-economically disadvantaged groups, National Education Policy 2020 proposes that curriculum and pedagogy should be
Detailed Solution for HPSC PGT Mathematics Mock Test - 9 - Question 4

Education Policy lays particular emphasis on the development of the creative potential of each individual. It is based on the principle that education must develop not only cognitive capacities - both the ‘foundational capacities ’of literacy and numeracy and ‘higher-order’ cognitive capacities, such as critical thinking and problem solving – but also social, ethical, and emotional capacities and dispositions.

National Education Policy 2020-

According to NEP 2020, A good educational institution is one in which every student feels welcomed and cared for, where a safe and stimulating learning environment exists, where a wide range of learning experiences are offered, and where good physical infrastructure and appropriate resources conducive to learning are available to all students.

Key Points  Some important fundamental principles of the NEP 2020 are- 

  • Full equity and inclusion as the cornerstone of all educational decisions to ensure that all students are able to thrive in the education system. 
  • It includes the overall development of the leader, it covers all three aspects as Cognitive domain, affective domain, and psychomotor domain.
  • Emphasis on conceptual understanding rather than rote learning and learning-for-exams.
  • Promoting self-assessment and the peer assessment done by the student in the classroom.
  • Respect for diversity and respect for the local context in all curriculum, pedagogy, and policy, always keeping in mind that education is a concurrent subject.
  • Establishment of the linkage of the concepts with the environment or we can say that the linkage of the school with the home.
  • Promoting engaging and contextual pedagogy to ensure retention of students from socio-economically disadvantaged groups.
  • Promoting multilingualism and the power of language in teaching and learning.
  • Creativity and critical thinking encourage logical decision-making and innovation.
  • It emphasizes group work as well as individual work, NEP 2020 links the study to the curriculum.

Thus by all these references, we can conclude that according to the NEP 2020 the engaging and contextual pedagogy ensures the retention of students from socio-economically disadvantaged groups.

Hint

  • Standard curriculum: Standard curriculum should not be followed in the classroom, Curriculum should be flexible and based on the needs and abilities of the learners.
  • Learning of the students should be done in multiple ways, such as observational learning, learning through interaction, etc. it should not be only textbook based.

In a room there are 2 green chairs, 3 yellow chairs and 4 blue chairs. In how many ways can Raj choose 3 chairs so that at least one yellow chair is included? 

Detailed Solution for HPSC PGT Mathematics Mock Test - 9 - Question 10

At least one yellow chair means “total way no yellow chair”
Total ways to select 3 chair form the total (2+3+4) = 9C3

Now, we dont want even one yellow chair.
So we should select 3 chairs from 6 chairs (2 green & 4 blue) = 6C3

Hence, ways to select at least one yellow chair = 84 - 20 = 64 ways.

HPSC PGT Mathematics Mock Test - 9 - Question 14

Detailed Solution for HPSC PGT Mathematics Mock Test - 9 - Question 14

lim(x → ∞) [(x-2)/(x+3)]2x
lim(x → ∞) [(x-2)/(x+3)]2 * [(x-2)/(x+3)]x


lim(x → a) [f(x) * g(x)] = lim(x → a) f(x) * lim(x → a) g(x)

lim(x → ∞) [(x-2)/(x+3)]2 * lim(x → ∞) [(x-2)/(x+3)]x
Lets evaluate the limits of both the functions separately,
lim(x → ∞) [(x-2)/(x+3)]2
= lim(x → ∞) [(x(1-2/x)/(1+3/x)]2
lim(x → ∞) [(1-2/x)/(1+3/x)]2
Apply infinity property,
= [(1-0)/(1-0)]2
= 1
Now, lim(x → ∞) [(x-2)/(x+3)]2
= lim(x → ∞) exln[(x-2)/(x+3)]
= lim(x → ∞) ln[(x-2)/(x+3)]/(1/x)
Apply L hospital rule
lim(x → ∞) d/dx[ln(x-2)/(x+3)]/[d/dx(1/x)]
= lim(x → ∞) {1/[(x-2)/(x+3)] * d/dx[(x-2)/(x+3)]}/(-1/x2)
= lim(x → ∞) {(x+3)/(x-2)[(x+3)d/dx(x-2) - (x-2)d/dx(x+3)]/(x+3)2}/(-1/x2)
= lim(x → ∞) {(x+3)/(x-2)[(x+3)-(x-2)]/(x+3)2}/(-1/x2)
= lim(x → ∞) {(x+3)/(x-2)[5/(x+3)2]}/(-1/x2)
= lim(x → ∞) [-5x2/(x+3)(x-2)]
= lim(x → ∞) [-5x2/(x2 + x - 6)]
Again apply L hospital rule,
= lim(x → ∞) [d/dx(-5x2)/(d/dx(x2 + x - 6))]
= lim(x → ∞) [-10x/(2x + 1)]
Again applying L hospital rule,
= lim(x → ∞) [d/dx(-10x)/(d/dx(2x + 1))]
=  lim(x → ∞) [-10/2] 
=  lim(x → ∞) [-5]
= -5
= lim(x → ∞) exln[(x-2)/(x+3)]2 = e(-5)2
= 1/e10
= lim(x → ∞) [(x-2)/(x+3)](x+3) = 1/e10 (1)
= 1/e10 = e-10
