Question 3.
If a ≡ b(mod n) and b ≡ c(mod n), then [1]
(A) a ≡ a(mod n)
(B) b ≡ c(mod a)
(C) a ≡ c(mod n)
(D) None of these
Answer:
(C) a ≡ c(mod n)

Explanation: If a ≡ b(mod n) and b ≡ c(mod n), then n | (b – a) and n | (c – b). Using the linear combination, we get
n | (b – a + c – b) or n | (c – a)
Thus, a ≡ c(mod n)

Question 4.
Assume the current time is 2: 00 p.m. what time (in a,m. or p.m.) will after 65 hours? [1]
(A) 7 am.
(B) 7 p.m.
(C) 3 a.m.
(D) 3 p.m.
Answer:
(A) 7 am.

Explanation: We know that time repeats after every 24 hours
So, we find 65 (mod 24)
∵ 65 = 24 x 2 + 17
So, 65 ≡ 17 (mod 24)
∴ 65 hours is equivalent to 17 hours.
Now, 2 : 00 p.m. + 17 hours = 7: 00 a.m.

Question 5.
Which of the given values of x and y make the following pair of matrices equal? [1]
CBSE Sample Papers for Class 12 Applied Mathematics Set 3 with Solutions img-1
(A) x = \(\frac { -1 }{ 3 }\), y = 7
(B) Not possible to find
(C) y = 7, x = \(\frac { -2 }{ 3 }\)
(D) x = \(\frac { -1 }{ 3 }\), y = \(\frac { -2 }{ 3 }\)
Answer:
(B) Not possible to find

Explanation: It is given that
CBSE Sample Papers for Class 12 Applied Mathematics Set 3 with Solutions img-9
Equating the corresponding elements, we get:
3x + 7 = 0
⇒ x = – \(\frac { 7 }{ 3 }\)
5 = y – 2
⇒ y = 7
y + 1 = 8
⇒ y = 7
2 – 3x = 4
⇒ x = – \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\)
We find that on comparing the corresponding elements of the two matrices, we get two different values of x, which is not possible. Hence, it is not possible to find the values of x and y for which the given matrices are equal.

CBSE Sample Papers for Class 12 Applied Mathematics Set 3 with Solutions img-10
Expanding along R1,
|A| = 2(6 – 5) – 2( – 5) – 3( – 2)
= 2 + 5λ + 6
We know that A’ exists, if A is non-singular matrix,
i.e., |A| ≠ 0
∴ 2 + 5λ + 6 ≠ 0
5λ ≠ – 8
∴ λ ≠ \(\frac { – 8 }{ 5 }\)
So, A-1 exists if and only if λ ≠ \(\frac { – 8 }{ 5 }\)

Question 8.

y = x (x – 3)2 decreases for the values of x given by: [1]
(A) 1 < x < 3
(B) x < 0 (C) x > 0
(D) 0 < x < \(\frac { 3 }{ 2 }\)
Answer:
(A) 1 < x < 3

Explanation: Given that,
y = x(x – 3)2
4 = x . 2(x – 3).1 + (x – 3)2.1
= 2x2 – 6x + x2 + 9 – 6x
= 3x2 – 12x + 9
= 3(x2 – 3x – x + 3)
= 3(x – 3)(x – 1)
CBSE Sample Papers for Class 12 Applied Mathematics Set 3 with Solutions img-12
So, y = x(x – 3)2 decreases for (1,3).
[Since, y’ < 0 for all x ∈ (1, 3), hence y is decreasing on (1, 3)].

Question 10.
If x is real, the minimum value of x2 – 8x + 17 is [1]
(A) – 1
(B) 0
(C) 1
(D) 2
Answer:
(C) 1

Explanation: Let,
f(x) = x2 – 8x + 17
On differentiating with respect to x, we get
f’(x) = 2x – 8
So,f’(x) = o
= 2x – 8 = 0
2x = 8
∴ x = 4
Now, Again on differentiating w.r.t. x, we get
f”(x)= 2 > 0,∀ x
So, x = 4 is the point of local minima.
Minimum value of f(x) at x = 4
f(4) = 4 x 4 – 8 x 4 + 17 = 1

Question 23.
Find the mean E(x) of the numbers obtained on throwing a die having written 1 on three faces, 2 on two faces and 5 on one face. [2]
Answer:
Total no. of observations = 6
∴ P (X = 1) = \(\frac { 3 }{ 6 }\) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)
P (X = 2) = \(\frac { 2 }{ 6 }\) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 }\)
P (X = 5) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 6 }\)
(where X be a random variable representing a number on die)
∴ Mean, E(X) = ∑piXi
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) x 1 + \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 }\) x 2 + \(\frac { 1 }{ 6 }\) x 5
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) + \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 }\) + \(\frac { 5 }{ 6 }\)
= \(\frac { 3+4+5 }{ 6 }\)
= \(\frac { 12 }{ 6 }\) = 2

Question 24.
(a) What is population ?
(b) What is sample? [2]
Answer:
(a) A population is a set of similar items or events which is of interest for some question or experiment. A population can be specific or vague. Examples of population defined vaguely include the number of newborn babies in Uttar Pradesh, a total number of tech startups in India, the average height of all exam candidates, mean weight of taxpayers in Lucknow etc. Examples of population defined specifically include a number of fans produced in a particular factory, the number of students in a class, the number of boys and girls in a coaching centre etc.

(b) A sample is a set of data collected from a statistical population by a defined procedure. The elements of a sample are called sample \ size or sample points. Samples are collected and statistics are calculated from the samples, so that one can make inferences from the sample to the population.

Question 25.
Explain the method of fitting a straight line. [2]
Answer:
The method of fitting a straight line is as follows:
(i) The straight-line trend is represented by the equation
Y = a + bX ……………….(1)
where, Y is the actual value, X is time, a and b are constants

(ii) The constants ‘a’ and ‘b’ are estimated by solving the following two normal equations
∑Y = na + b∑X ………..(2)
∑XY = a∑X + b∑X2 …….(3)
where, n = number of years given in the data.

(iii) By taking the mid-point of the time as the origin, we get
∑X = o

(iv) When ∑X = 0, the two normal equations reduces to
∑Y = na + b(0); a = \(\frac { ∑Y }{ n }\) = \(\bar{Y}\)
∑XY = a(0) + b∑X2; b = \(\frac{\Sigma X Y}{\Sigma X^2}\)
The constant ‘a’ gives the mean of Y and ‘b’ gives the rate of change (slope).

(v) By substituting the values of ‘a’ and ‘b’ in the trend equation (1), we get the Line of Best Fit.

Question 26.
(a) Compute the last digit in the decimal expansion of 400100.
(b) Is 4100 divisible by 3? [3]

OR

A man rows a boat 30 km upstream and 44 km down-stream in lo hours. If he rows 40 km upstream and 55 km downstream in 13 hours, then find the rate at which he rows the boat in still water. [3]
Answer:
(a) The last digit is the remainder when divided by 10. Thus we must compute the congruence class of 4100 (mod 10).
We have 42 = 6 (mod 10),
and then 62 – 6 (mod 10).
This shows that 4100 = (42)50 = 650 = 6 (mod 10), so the unit’s digit of 4100 is 6.

(b) No, since 4100 = 1100 = 1 (mod 3). Or we can write 2200 as the prime factorization, and then gcd (3, 2200) = 1.

OR

Suppose the man rows the boat in still water at u km/h, and the rate of water current is υ km/h
Then,
Speed downstream = (u + υ) km/h
Speed upstream = (u – υ) km/h
It is given that he rows the boat 30 km upstream and 44 km downstream in 10 hours.
∴\(\frac { 30 }{ u – υ }\) + \(\frac { 44 }{ u + υ }\) = 10
\(\frac { 30 }{ x }\) + \(\frac { 44 }{ y }\) = 10,
where, u – υ = x
and u + υ = y ……….(i)
He can also row 40 km upstream and 55 km downstream in 13 hours.
∴\(\frac { 40 }{ u – υ }\) + \(\frac { 55 }{ u + υ }\) =13
\(\frac { 40 }{ x }\) + \(\frac { 55 }{ y }\) = 13, …………….(ii)
Multiplying eq.(i) by 4 and eq. (ii) by 3 and subtracting,
we get
\(\frac { 176 }{ y }\) – \(\frac { 165 }{ y }\) = 40 – 39
\(\frac { 11 }{ y }\) = 1
y = 11
u + υ = 11 …………….(iii)
Putting y = 11 in eq.(i), we obtain
\(\frac { 30 }{ x }\) + 4 = 10 ⇒ \(\frac { 30 }{ x }\) ⇒ 6
x = 5
u – υ = 5 ……………..(iv)
Adding eqs. (ii) and (iv), we get
2u = 11 + 5, u = 8
Hence, in still water the man rows the boat at 8 km/h.

Question 30.
Calculate the EMI under ‘Flat Rate System’ for a loan of ₹ 5,00,000 with 10% annual interest rate for 5 years. [3]
Answer:
We have, P = Principal = ₹ 5,00,000
i = rate of interest per month
= \(\frac { 10 }{ 12 x 100 }\) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 120 }\)
n = No. of installments
= 12 x 5 = 60
∴ EMI = ₹ P(i + \(\frac { 1 }{ n }\))
= ₹ 5,00,0001 (\(\frac { 1 }{ 120 }\) + \(\frac { 1 }{ 60 }\))
= ₹ 5,oo,ooo (\(\frac { 1+2 }{ 120 }\))

Question 31.
A company establishes sinking fund to provide for the payment of ₹ 1,00,000 debt. maturing in 5 years. Contributions to the fund are to be made at the end of every year. Find the amount of each annual deposit if interest is 15% per annum. Given ((1.15)5 = 2.011] [3]
Answer:
L.et each annual deposit to the sinking fund be ₹ P
Since, Sinking Fund, A = P x \(\frac{(1+i)^n-1}{i}\)
1,00,000 = P x \(\frac{(1+0.15)^5-1}{0.15}\)
or, 1,00,000 = P x \(\frac{(1.15)^5-1}{0.15}\)

The problem can be formulated as
Max. Z = 1.50x + 1.00y
i.e., Max. Z = 1.50x + y
Subject to the constraints:
12x + 6y ≤ 360,i.e.,2x + y ≤ 60
18x + 0.y ≤ 360,i.e.,x ≤ 20
6x + 9y ≤ 360,i.e.,2x + 3y ≤ 120
and x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0 (Non-negative constraints)
We draw the straight lines:
2x + y = 60, x = 20, 2x + 3y = 120

Question 36.
Riya a biologist runs an experiment in the laboratory involving a culture of bacteria. She is doing this experiment first time. She notices that the mass of the bacteria in culture increases exponentially. The bacteria count in the culture is ₹ 1,00,000. The rate of growth of bacteria is proportional to the number of bacteria present in the culture. Also, the number of bacteria is increased by 10% in 2 hours.
CBSE Sample Papers for Class 12 Applied Mathematics Set 3 with Solutions img-7
Based on the above given information answer the following questions:
(i) If y be the number of bacteria at time t, then find the differential equation that models in the given scenario.
(ii) Find the general solution of the associated differential equation.
(iii) Find the value of constant of integration and bacteria count after 2 hours.

OR

In how many hours will the bacteria count reach 2,00,000?
Answer:
(i) If y be the number of bacteria at time t, then
\(\frac { dy }{ dt }\) ∝ y
\(\frac { dy }{ dt }\) = ky

(ii)
\(\frac { dy }{ dt }\) = ky
\(\frac { dy }{ y }\) = kdt
Integrating both sides, we get
logy = kt + c

(iii) Put t = 0 and y = 1,00,000 in equation log y = kt + c, we get
log 1,00,000 = k x 0 + c
c = log 1,00,000
When, t = 2 hours
y = 1,00,000 + 10% x 1,00,000
= 1,10,000

OR

Put c = log 1,00,000 andy = 1,10,000 in log y = kt + c
we get
log y = kt + log 1,00,000 ……………..(i)
Now when t = 2, y = 1,10,000
So, from equation (i), we get
log 1,10,000 = 2k + log 1,00,000
log(1,00,000 – 1,10,000) = 2k
k = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) log (\(\frac { 11 }{ 10 }\))
[log m – log n = log – \(\frac { m }{ n }\) ]
Now finding t when bacteria = 2,00,000
log 2,00,000 = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) log (\(\frac { 11 }{ 10 }\)) t + log (1,00,000)
log (\(\frac { 2,00,000 }{ 1,00,000 }\)) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) log (\(\frac { 11 }{ 10 }\)) t
log 2 = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) log (\(\frac { 11 }{ 10 }\)) t
t = \(\frac{2 \log 2}{\log \left(\frac{11}{10}\right)}\)
= \(\frac { 2 x 0.6931 }{ 0.0953 }\)
= 14.55 years

(iii) Consider first two inequalities, \(\frac { 4 }{ x+1 }\) ≤ 3
4 ≤ 3(x + 1)
4 ≤ 3x + 3
4 – 3 ≤ 3x
[subtracting 3 on both sides]
1 ≤ 3x
x ≥ \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 }\) …………(i)
and consider last two inequalities,
3 ≤ \(\frac { 6 }{ x+1 }\)
3(x + 1) ≤ 6
3x + 3 ≤ 6
3x ≤ 6 – 3
[subtracting 3 on both sides]
3x ≤ 3 [dividing by 3]
∴ x ≤ 1
From Eqs.(i) and (ii),
x ∈ [ \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 }\), 1 ]
\(\frac { 1 }{ 3 }\) ≤ x ≤ 1
We have -5 ≤ \(\frac { 2-3x }{ 4 }\) ≤ 9
– 20 ≤ 2 – 3x
[multiplying by 4 on both sides]
3x ≤ 2 + 20
3x ≤ 22
x ≤ \(\frac { 22 }{ 3 }\)
