Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 1

Bag 1 contains 4 white and 6 black balls while another Bag 2 contains 4 white and 3 black balls. One ball is drawn at random from one of the bags and it is found to be black. Find the probability that it was drawn from Bag 1.

Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 1

Let E1 = event of choosing the bag 1, E2 = event of choosing the bag 2.
Let A be event of drawing a black ball.
P(E1) = P(E2) = 1/2.
Also, P(A|E1) = P(drawing a black ball from Bag 1) = 6/10 = 3/5.
P(A|E2) = P(drawing a black ball from Bag 2) = 3/7.
By using Bayes’ theorem, the probability of drawing a black ball from bag 1 out of two bags is-:
P(E1 | A) = P(E1)P(A | E1)/( P(E1)P(A│E1)+P(E2)P(A | E2))
= (1/2 × 3/5) / ((1/2 × 3/7)) + (1/2 × 3/5)) = 7/12.

Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 2

The total revenue (in Rs.) received by selling 'x' units of a certain products is given by: R(x) = 4x2 + 10x + 3.

What is the marginal revenue on selling 20 such units?

Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 2

Concept:

Marginal revenue is the rate of change total revenue with respect to the number of items sold at an instant.

MR =

Calculation:

Given, Total revenue R(x) = 4x2 + 10x + 3

∴ Marginal revenue, MR =

=

= 8x + 10

⇒ MR(at x = 20) = 8(20) + 10 = 160 + 10 = 170

∴ The marginal revenue on selling 20 such units is Rs. 170.

Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 3

If x is a real, then minimum value of x2 − 8x + 17 is:

Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 3

Concept:

1) The critical point of a function is the point where its first derivative is 0.

2) A function has minima if its second derivative at a critical point is greater than 0.

Calculation:

The given equation of the curve is x2 – 8x + 17.

Let f(x) = x2 – 8x + 17

∴ f'(x) = 2x - 8

For critical point, put f'(x) = 0

⇒ 2x - 8 = 0

⇒ x = 4

f''(x) = 2 > 0 hence f(x) has minima at x = 4.

∴ Minimum value of f(x) = f(4)

f(4) = 42 - 8 × 4 + 17 = 1

∴ The minimum value of x2 – 8x + 17 is 1.

The correct answer is option 3.

Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 4

Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 4
The correct answer is 10.
Key Points Mean of random variable (X) = μ = = =
Hence, 9μ + 4 =
Therefore, the required value is 10.
Additional Information

Random Variable: A random variable is a variable whose value is determined by the outcome of a random process or experiment. In other words, it is a mathematical function that assigns a numerical value to each possible outcome of a random experiment.
The mean of a random variable is a measure of its central tendency and represents the average value of the variable over all possible outcomes. Mathematically, the mean is defined as the sum of the products of each possible value of the variable and its corresponding probability, divided by the total number of possible outcomes. The mean is also sometimes referred to as the expected value of the random variable.

Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 5
In a game, a child will win Rs 5 if he gets all heads or all tails when three coins are tossed simultaneously and he will lose Rs 3 for all other cases. The expected amount to lose in the game is
Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 5
The correct answer is Rs. 1
Key Points
Let X be the amount received by the person. Then, X can take values 5 and -3 such that
P( X = 5) = Probability of getting all heads or all tails when three coins are tossed.
P( X = 5) = 82​ = 41 ​
P( X = - 3) = Probability of getting one or two heads
P(X = -3) = 86 ​= 43 ​
Therefore, expected amount to win, on the average, per game is =X= ∑pi​xi​ = 5×41​+(−3)×43 ​=−1
Thus, the person will, on average, lose Rs. 1 per toss of the coins.
Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 6

The Probability mass functions of Random variable X is:

P(X = x) = (0.6)x (0.4)1−x; x = 0, 1 The variance of X is:

Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 6
The correct answer is 0.240
Key Points

To find the variance of a random variable X, we need to know its expected value or mean first. The expected value of X can be calculated as E(X) = ∑x P(X=x)
So, for this probability mass function: E(X) = 0(0.4) + 1(0.6) = 0.6
Now, to calculate the variance, we can use the formula: Var(X) = E(X2) - [E(X)]2
So, we need to find E(X2) first. E(X2) = ∑x (X2) P(X=x). For x=0, X2 = 0, so we have: E(X2) = (0)2 (0.4) + (1)2 (0.6) = 0.6
Now we can substitute E(X) and E(X2) in the formula for variance: Var(X) = E(X2) - [E(X)]2 = 0.6 - (0.6)2 = 0.24
Therefore, the variance of X is 0.240

Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 7

Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 8
What is the value of ?
Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 8

Concept:

The Squeeze Theorem (The Sandwich Theorem): is used on a function where it will be almost impossible to differentiate.

  • The squeeze theorem states that if we define functions such that h(x) ≤ f(x) ≤ g(x) and if , then .

Calculation:

We know that -1 ≤ sin θ ≤ 1.

⇒ -1 ≤ ≤ 1

Since, ex is a strictly increasing function for all real values of x, we can say that:

⇒ e-1 ≤ e1

Also, since x2 ≥ 0, we can say that:

⇒ x2e-1 ≤ x2e1

So, we can consider h(x) = , f(x) = and g(x) = x2e.

Now, .

And .

Since, , we must have .

Hence, .

Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 9

Consider the following statements in respect of a function f(x):

1. f(x) is continuous at x = a, if limx→a f(x) exists.

2. If f(x) is continuous at a point, then 1/f(x) is also continuous at that point.

Which of the above statements is/are correct?

Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 9

Concept:

exists if

f(x) is Continuous at x = a ⇔

Calculation:

1. This statement is false, as the limit at the given point should be equal to the existence of the limit.

2. If f(x) is a continuous function at a point, then it is not necessary that the function 1/ f(x) will be continuous.

Take, f (x) = x, which is continuous at a point,

For 1/f (x) = 1/x, which will not be continuous at the same point x = 0

So, this statement is not true.

Hence, option (4) is correct.

Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 10

Determine the value of k, if is continuous at x = 0

Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 10

Concept:

  • We say f(x) is continuous at x = c if

LHL = RHL = value of f(c)

i.e.,

Calculation:

Given: is continuous at x = 0

LHL =

(∵ |x| = -x, for x < 0)

= - k

f(x) is continuous

∴ LHLx = 0 = RHLx = 0 = f (0)

⇒ -k = 3/2

⇒ k = -3/2

Hence, option (3) is correct.

Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 11

Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 11

Concept:

  • f(x) is Continuous at x = a ⇔

Calculation:

Given:

Let’s check continuity at x = 0

∴ It is not continuous at x = 0

Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 14

Bag 1 contains 3 red and 5 black balls while another Bag 2 contains 4 red and 6 black balls. One ball is drawn at random from one of the bags and it is found to be red. Find the probability that it is drawn from bag 2.

Detailed Solution for Mathematics: CUET Mock Test - 3 - Question 14

Let E1 = event of choosing the bag 1, E2 = event of choosing the bag 2.
Let A be event of drawing a red ball.
P(E1) = P(E2) = 1/2.
Also, P(A | E1) = P(drawing a red ball from Bag 1) = 3/8.
And P(A | E2) = P(drawing a red ball from Bag 2) = 4/10.
The probability of drawing a ball from bag 2, being given that it is red is P(E2 | A).
By using Bayes’ theorem,
P(E2 | A) = P(E2)P(A | E2)/( P(E1)P(A│E1)+P(E2)P(A | E2))
= (1/2 × 4/10) / ((1/2 × 3/8)) + (1/2 × 4/10)) = 16/31.
