What is the minimum angle by which the coordinate axes have to be rotated in anticlockwise sense (in Degrees), such that the function f(x) = 3x3 + 5x + 1016 has at least one Rolles point

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Mock Test- 2 - Question 14

For the transformed function to have a Rolles point is equivalent to the existing function having a Lagrange point somewhere in the real number domain, we are finding the point in the domain of the original function where we have f'(x) = tan(α)

Let the angle to be rotated be α

We have

f'(x) = 9x2 + 5 = tan(α)

9x2 = tan(α) – 5

For the given function to have a Lagrange point we must have the right hand side be greater than zero, so

tan(α) – 5 > 0

tan(α) > 5

α > tan-1(5)

In degrees we must have,

IIT JAM Mathematics Mock Test- 2 - Question 24

For a third degree monic polynomial, it is seen that the sum of roots are zero. What is the relation between the minimum angle to be rotated to have a Rolles point (α in Radians) and the cyclic sum of the roots taken two at a time c

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Mock Test- 2 - Question 24

From Vietas formulas we can deduce that the x2 coefficient of the monic polynomial is zero (Sum of roots = zero). Hence, we can rewrite our third degree polynomial as c

Now the question asks us to relate α and c

Where c is indeed the cyclic sum of two roots taken at a time by Vietas formulae

As usual, Rolles point in the rotated domain equals the Lagrange point in the existing domain. Hence, we must have

y ‘ = tan(α)

3x2 + c = tan(α)

To find the minimum angle, we have to find the minimum value of α

such that the equation formed above has real roots when solved for x So, we can write

tan(α) – c > 0

tan(α) > c

α > tan-1(c)

Thus, the minimum required angle is

α = tan-1(c).

IIT JAM Mathematics Mock Test- 2 - Question 26

Solve for x: log2(x2 - 3x) = log2(5x-15).

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Mock Test- 2 - Question 26

By using the property if logax = logay then x = y, gives 2x 2- 3x = 10 - 6x. Now, to solve the equation x- 3x - 5x + 15 = 0

⇒ x- 8x + 15

⇒ x = 3, x = 5

For x = 3: log2(3- 3 x 3) = log2(5 x 3 - 15) ⇒ true

For x = 5: log2(5- 3 x 5) = log2(5 x 5 - 15) ⇒ true

The solutions to the equation are : x = 3 and x = 5.

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Mock Test- 2 - Question 29

To find points such that f'(c) = 1

We need to check points on graph where slope remains the same ( 45 degrees)

In every interval of the form [(n – 1)π, nπ] we must have 2n – 1 points
