(b) 30 L
(c) 45 L
(d) 35 L
Solution:
(a) Let the quantity of milk and water in initial mixture be 7x L and 5x L.
Then, according to the question,
\(\frac{7x}{5x+15}=\frac{7}{8}\)
⇒ 7x × 8 = 7 (5x + 15)
⇒ 56x = 35x + 105
⇒ 56x – 35x = 105
⇒ x = \(\frac{105}{21}\) = 5
∴ Quantity of water in initial mixture = 5 × 5 = 25 L
and quantity of water in new mixture = 25 + 15 = 40 L

(b) 12
(c) 7
(d) 15
Solution:

On comparing the corresponding elements, we get
8 + y = 0 and 2x + 1 = 5
⇒ y = – 8 and x = \(\frac{5 – 1}{2}\) = 2
∴ x – y = 2 – (-8) = 10

(d) x ∈ (-∞, -5) ∪ (2, ∞)
Solution:
(b) Given, |2x + 3| < 7
∴ -7 < (2x + 3) < 7
⇒ -7 – 3 < 2x + 3 – 3 < 7 – 3
⇒ -10 < 2x < 4
⇒ \(\frac{10}{2}<\frac{2x}{2}<\frac{4}{2}\)
⇒ -5 < x < 2
∴ x ∈ (-5, 2)

Directions In the question number 19 and 20, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Choose the correct option.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

A Lefievo computer, whose cost is ₹ 600000 will depreciate to a scrap value of ₹ 60000 in 5 yr. Using linear method of depreciation, find the book value of the computer at the end of third year.
Solution:
We know, C = Original cost of computer = ₹ 600000
S = Scrap value of computer = ₹ 60000
n = useful life of computer = 5 yr
∴ Annual depreciation

The book value at the end of third year
= 600000 – 3 × 108000
= ₹ 276000

A pipe can fill a cistern in 6 h. Due to a leak in its bottom, it is filled in 7 h. If the cistern is full, then find the time will it be emptied by the leak.
Solution:
In 1 h, \(\frac{1}{6}\) of the cistern can be filled.
In 1 h, only \(\frac{1}{7}\) of the cistern can be filled due to leak in its bottom.
∴ In 1 h, \(\frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{7}=\frac{1}{42}\) of the cistern is empty.
Hence, the whole cistern will be emptied in 42 h.

[given, (1.6)^1/5 = 1.099]
Solution:
Given, beginning value of the investment (BV) = ₹ 30000
Number of years = 5
Ending value of the investment (EV) = ₹ 48000
∴ Compound annual growth rate (CAGR)

Hence, CAGR% is 0.099 × 100% = 9.9%

[given (1.04)²⁵ = 2.6658]
Solution:
Here, S = ₹100000, n = 25yr and i= 4% =0.04

Section D
All questions are compulsory. In case of internal choice, attempt any one questions only

Question 32.
A machine is bought for ₹ 320000. Its effective life is 8 yr, after which its salvage value would be ₹ 25000. It is decided to create a sinking fund to replace this machine at the end of its effective life by making half yearly payments that will earn an interest of 8% per annum compounded half-yearly. If it is known that the cost of machine increases by 5% per annum. Calculate the amount of , each payment to the sinking fund.
[given(1.04)¹⁶ = 1.8730 and (1.05)⁸ = 1.4774]
Or
Which gives better yields.
(i) 8.4% per annum compounded monthly.
(ii) 8.5% per annum compounded semi-annually.
[given, (1.007)¹² = 1.0873 and (1.0425)² = 1.0868]
Solution:
Let each semi-annually deposit in the sinking fund of ₹ R. Since, the cost of new machine is increases by 5% per annum the cost of present.
Cost of machine at present = ₹ 320000
Cost of machine after increasing 5% per annum after 8yr
= 320000(1 + \(\frac{5}{100}\))⁸
= 32000 (1.05)⁸
= 320000 × 1.4774
= ₹ 472768
Salvage value of present machine = ₹ 25000
So, net amount required at the end of 8 yr to purchase the new model is ₹ (472768 – 25000) = ₹447768
We know that
R = \(\frac{i\timesS}{(1+i)^n-1}\)
Here, S = ₹ 447768, n = 8 × 2 = 16yr

Thus, × 20516.28 deposited half yearly out of the profit to purchase the new model of the machine.
Or
(i) The effective rate corresponding to 8.4% compounded monthly is

Hence, the option (i) given better yields.

Question 33.
If the interest is compounded continuously at 6% per annum, how much worth ₹ 1000 will be 10 yr? [given e^0.6 = 1.822]
Solution:
Let P be the principal amount at any time t and the rate of interest be r% per annum compounded continuously.


Hence, in 10 yr, the worth of ₹ 1000 will be come ₹ 1822.

Question 34.
A dietician wishes to mix two types of foods in such a way that the vitamin contents of mixture contains atleast 8 units of vitamin A and 10 units of vitamin C. Food I contains 2 units per kg of vitamin A and 1 unit per kg of vitamin C, while food II contains 1 unit per kg of vitamin A and 2 units per kg of vitamin C. It costs ₹ 5 per kg to purchase food I and ₹ 7 per kg to purchase food II. Find the minimum cost of such a mixture. Formulate above as an LPP and solve it graphically.
Or
Solve the following LPP graphically. Maximise Z = 3x + 2 y, subject to constraints are x + 2 y ≤ 10, 3x + y ≤ 15 and x, y ≥ 0.
Also, determine the area of the feasible region.
Solution:
The given data can be put in the tabular form as follows

Suppose the diet contains x kg of food I and y kg of food II.
Then, the required LPP is minimise
Z = 5x + 7y
Subject to constraints
2x + y ≥ 8,
x + 2y ≥ 10
and x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
On considering the inequalities as equations, we get
2x + y = 8 ,..(i)
and x + 2y = 10 …(ii)
Table for line 2x + y = 8 is

So, it passes through the points (0, 8) and (4, 0), [1] On putting (0,0) in the inequality
2x + y ≥ 8, we get
0 ≥ 8 [which is false]
So, the half plane is away from the origin.
Table for line x + 2y = 10 is

So, it passes through the points (10, 0) and (0, 5). On putting (0,0) in the inequality x + 2y ≥ 10, we get
0 ≥ 10 [which is false]
So, the half plane is away from the origin.
Also, x,y ≥ 0, so the feasible region lies in the first quadrant.
On solving Eq. (i) and Eq. (ii), we get
x = 2 and y = 4
So, these lines intersect at P(2, 4).
The graphical representation of the system of inequations given below

From the graph, the feasible region is BPC which is unbounded.
The values of Z at corner points are as follows

From table, the minimum value of Z is 38 at P (2, 4). As the feasible region is unbounded, therefore 38 may or may not be the minimum value of Z. For this, we draw a dotted graph of the inequality 5x + 7y < 38 and check whether the resulting half plane has point in common with the feasible region or not,
It can be seen that the feasible region has no common point with 5x + 7y < 38.
Hence, the minimum cost is ₹ 38, when x =2 and y = 4.
Or
Our problem is to maximise Z = 3x + 2y ,..(i)
Subject to constraints,
x + 2y ≤ 10 ….(ii)
3x + y ≤ 15 ….(iii)
x, y ≥ 0 ,..(iv)

Table for line x + 2y = 10 is

So, the line passes through the points (0, 5) and (4, 3).
On putting (0, 0) in the inequality x + 2y ≤ 10, we get
0 + 2 × 0 ≤ 10
⇒ 0 ≤ 10, which is true.
So, the half plane is towards the origin.
Table for line 3x + y = 15 is

So, the line passes through the points (4, 3) and (5, 0).
On putting (0, 0) in the inequality 3x + y ≤ 15, we get 3 x 0 + 0 ≤ 15
⇒ 0 ≤ 15, which is true.
So, the half plane is towards the origin.
Also, x, y ≥ 0, so the region lies in the first quadrant.
On solving equations x + 2y = 10 and 3x + y = 15,
we get
x = 4 and y = 3
So, the intersection point is B (4, 3).
∴ Feasible region is OABCO.

The corner points of the feasible region are 0(0, 0), A(5, 0), 6(4, 3) and C(0, 5).
The values of Z at the corner points are given below

Therefore, the maximum value of Z is 18 at the point 6(4, 3).
∴ Area of feasible region
