NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 1

Let X = {x | x = 2 + 4k, where k = 0, 1, 2, 3,...24}. Let S be a subset of X such that the sum of no two elements of S is 100. What is the maximum possible number of elements in S ?  

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 1

Calculation:

The set X is given by

{2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 34, 38, 42, 46, 50, 54, 58, 62, 66, 70, 74, 78, 82, 86, 90, 94, 98}.

We want to find the maximum size of a subset S of X such that no two

elements sum to 100.

The pairs in X that sum to 100 are

(2, 98), (6, 94), (10, 90), (14, 86), (18, 82), (22, 78), (26, 74), (30, 70), (34,

66), (38, 62), (42, 58), (46, 54).

Therefore, 

S = {2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 34, 38, 42, 46, 50}

∴ The maximum possible number of elements in S be 13.

NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 2

In a party of 150 persons, 75 persons take tea, 60 persons take coffee and 50 persons take milk. 15 of them take both tea and coffee, but no one taking milk takes tea. If each person in the party takes at least one drink, then what is the number of persons taking milk only ?

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 2

Let, x number of persons taking milk only.

F2 Savita Defence 31-5-23 Sachin K D28

According to the question

60 + 15 + (x - 5) + (50 - x) + x = 150

120 + x = 150

x = 150 - 120 = 30

∴ The required value is 30.

NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 3

If R is a relation from a non – empty set A to a non – empty set B, then

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

Let A and B be two sets. Then a relation R from set A to set B is a subset of A × B. Thus, R is a relation from A to B ⇔ R ⊆ A × B.

NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 4

The range of the function f(x) = 7-x Px-3 is 

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 4

Here, 0 ≤ x- 3 ≤ 7 - x  
⇒0 ≤ x - 3 and x - 3 ≤ 7 - x
By solvation, we will get 3 ≤ x ≤ 5
So x = 3,4,5 find the values of 7-x Px - 3 by substituting the values of x
at x = 3 4P0 = 1
at x = 4 3P1 = 3 
at x = 5 2P2 = 2

NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 5

Let R be the relation over the set of straight lines of a plane such that l1 R l2 ⇔ l1 ⊥ l2. Then, R is

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 5

To be reflexive, a line must be perpendicular to itself, but which is not true. So, R is not reflexive
For symmetric, if  l1 R l2 ⇒ l1 ⊥ l2.
⇒  l2 ⊥ l1 ⇒ l1 R l2 hence symmetric
For transitive,  if l1 R l2 and l2 R l3
⇒ l1 R l2  and l2 R l3  does not imply that l1 ⊥ l3 hence not transitive.

NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 6

Let f be a function such that f(mn) = f(m) f(n) for every positive integers m and n. If f(1), f(2) and f(3) are positive integers, f(1) < f(2), and f(24) = 54, then f(18) equals

(2019)

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 6

Given f(mn ) = f(m) f(n) and f(24) = 54
⇒ f (24) = 2 × 3 × 3 × 3
⇒ f(2 × 12) = f(2) f(12) = f(2) f(2 × 6)
= f(2) f(2) f(6) = f(2) f(2) f(2 × 3)
= f(2) f(2) f(2) f(3) = 2 × 3 × 3 × 3
Given that f(1). f(2) and f(3) are all positive integers hence by comparison, we get
f(2) = 3 and f(3) = 2
Hear we may safely consider f(1) = 1
Now, f(18 ) = f(2) (9) = f(2) f(3 × 3)
= f(2) f(3) f(3) = 3 × 2 × 2 = 12.

NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 7

Let f(x) = min{2x2, 52 − 5x}, where x is any positive real number. Then the maximum possible value of f(x) is

(2018)

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 7

The maximum value of f(x) will occur when
2x2 = 52 – 5x i.e. when 2x2 + 5x − 52 = 0
⇒ 2x2 + 13x − 8x − 52 = 0
⇒ (2x + 13) (x – 4) = 0 ⇒ x = – 13/2 or 4. But x is any positive real number. So, x = 4.
Hence, maximum value of f (x) = 2(42) = 32

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 17

 Let, z = x + iy
Putting in the given inequality,
|(x−4)−iy| < |(x−2)+iy|
⇒ [(x−4)2 + y2]11/2 < [(x−2)2 + y2]1/2
squaring both sides,
⇒ (x−4)2 + y2 < (x−2)2 + y2
⇒ −8x+16 < −4x+4
⇒ 4

NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 18

A lady wants to select one cotton saree and one polyster saree from a textile shop. If there are 15 cotton and 13 polyster varieties in that shop, in how many ways can she pick up two sarees?

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 18

The lady can select one cotton saree out of 15 cotton varieties in 15 ways since
any of 15 varieties can be selected. Corresponding to each selection of a cotton saree, she can
choose a polyester saree in 13 ways. Hence the two sarees (one cotton and one polyester), by
multiplication principle of counting, can be selected in 15 x 13= 195 ways

Out of 30 Boys,
No. of ways to select 1 boy = 30C1 = 30
Out of 18 Girls,
No. of ways to select 1 boy = 18C1 = 18
No. of ways of selecting 1 boy and 1 girl =
30*18 = 540

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 23

a = 4, l = 31, n = 8
(l-a)/(n+1) = (31-4)/(8+1)
= 27/9 
= 3

NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 24

For what value of n, is the arithmetic mean (AM) of a and b?

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 24

(aⁿ⁺¹ + bⁿ⁺¹)/(aⁿ + bⁿ) is mean between a & b
Mean of a & b =  ( a + b)/2
=> (aⁿ⁺¹ + bⁿ⁺¹)/(aⁿ + bⁿ) = ( a + b)/2
=> 2aⁿ⁺¹ + 2bⁿ⁺¹  = aⁿ⁺¹  + bⁿ⁺¹  + baⁿ + bⁿa
=> aⁿ⁺¹ + bⁿ⁺¹ = baⁿ + bⁿa
=> aⁿ(a - b) = bⁿ(a - b)
=> aⁿ = bⁿ
=> (a/b)ⁿ = 1
=> n = 0    or a  = b

NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 25

The digits of a positive integer having three digits are in AP and sum of their digits is 21. The number obtained by reversing the digits is 396 less than the original number. Find the original number.

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 25

Let the digits at ones, tens and hundreds place be (a−d)a and (a+d) respectively. The, the number is
(a+d)×100+a×10+(a−d) = 111a+99d
The number obtained by reversing the digits is
(a−d)×+a×10+(a+d) = 111a−99d
It is given that the sum of the digits is 21.
(a−d)+a+(a+d) = 21                        ...(i)
Also it is given that the number obtained by reversing the digits is 594 less than the original number.
∴111a−99d = 111a+99d−396          ...(ii)
⟹ 3a = 21 and 198d = 396
⟹ a = 7 and d = -2
Original number = (a−d)×+a×10+(a+d)
= 100(9) + 10(7) + 5
= 975

NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 26

Let A(1,3), B(-2,9), and C(x,-1)
For to be points collinear,
x1(y2-y3) + x2(y3-y1) + x3(y1-y2)=0
⇒ 1(9-(-1)) + (-2)(-1-3) + x(3-9)=0
⇒ 1(10)+(-2)(-4)+x(-6)=0
⇒ 10+8-6x=0
⇒ 18 = 6x
⇒ x = 3

The ratio in which the point R (1, 2) divides the line segment joining points P (2, 3) and Q (3, 5) is:

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 27

P(2,3) Q(3,5) R(1,2)
R is at centre between P and Q, using section formula for internal division
Therefore, (1,2) = ((3λ+2)/(λ+1), (5λ+3)/(λ+1))
1 = (3λ+2)/(λ+1)
(λ+1) = (3λ+2)
λ = -1/2
- sign indicates the external division

Given circle = (2,3)
Given line (x+y-1) = 0
Distance between point to line is:
d = |ax1 + by1 + c|/√(a2 + b2)
where a = 1, b = 1, c = -1 and x1 = 2, y1 = 3
d = |1(2) + 1(3) - 1|/√(1+1)

 Equation : 3x + 4y = 15
Points : (1,-3)
3(x-1) + 4(y-(-3)) = 15
3(x-1) + 4(y+3) = 15
3x - 3 + 4y + 12 = 15
3x + 4y = 6

What will be the new equation of the straight line 5x + 8y = 10, if the origin gets shifted to (2,-3) ?

Detailed Solution for NDA Mock Test: Mathematics - 1 - Question 30

Equation : 5x + 8y = 10
Points (2, -3)
(x-2, y+3)
⇒ 5(x-2) + 8(y+3) = 10
= 5x - 10 + 8y + 24 = 10
⇒ 5x + 8 = - 4
