Answer Key

Section A: Short Answer Type Questions

1. For the roots to be equal, the discriminant must be zero.

Discriminant Δ=k2−4⋅2⋅3=0\Delta = k^2 - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 = 0Δ=k2−4⋅2⋅3=0

k2=24k^2 = 24k2=24

k=±26k = \pm 2\sqrt{6}k=±26

2. Solving the system of equations:

2x+3y=72x + 3y = 72x+3y=7

4x−y=54x - y = 54x−y=5

Multiply the second equation by 3:

12x−3y=1512x - 3y = 1512x−3y=15

Adding both equations:

14x=2214x = 2214x=22

x=117x = \frac{11}{7}x=711

Substitute xxx into the first equation:

2⋅117+3y=72 \cdot \frac{11}{7} + 3y = 72⋅711+3y=7

227+3y=7\frac{22}{7} + 3y = 7722+3y=7

3y=7−2273y = 7 - \frac{22}{7}3y=7−722

3y=49−2273y = \frac{49 - 22}{7}3y=749−22

3y=2773y = \frac{27}{7}3y=727

y=97y = \frac{9}{7}y=79

3. Mean xˉ=∑xin=3+7+8+10+155=435=8.6\bar{x} = \frac{\sum x_i}{n} = \frac{3 + 7 + 8 + 10 +

15}{5} = \frac{43}{5} = 8.6xˉ=n∑xi=53+7+8+10+15=543=8.6

4. Using the Pythagorean identity:

cos⁡θ=1−sin⁡2θ=1−(35)2=1−925=1625=45\cos \theta = \sqrt{1 - \sin^2 \theta} = \sqrt{1 -

\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)^2} = \sqrt{1 - \frac{9}{25}} = \sqrt{\frac{16}{25}} =

\frac{4}{5}cosθ=1−sin2θ=1−(53)2=1−259=2516=54

5. f′(x)=ddx(x3−2x2+x)=3x2−4x+1f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx} (x^3 - 2x^2 + x) = 3x^2 - 4x + 1f′(x)=dxd

6. Sum of the squares of the first nnn natural numbers:

S=12+22+32+…+n2S = 1^2 + 2^2 + 3^2 + \ldots + n^2S=12+22+32+…+n2

Using the formula S=n(n+1)(2n+1)6S = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}S=6n(n+1)(2n+1).

7. Standard deviation calculation:

Mean xˉ=4+8+6+5+3+76=336=5.5\bar{x} = \frac{4 + 8 + 6 + 5 + 3 + 7}{6} = \frac{33}{6} =

\frac{\sum (x_i - \bar{x})^2}{n} = \frac{(4-5.5)^2 + (8-5.5)^2 + (6-5.5)^2 + (5-5.5)^2 + (3-5.5)^2

+ (7-5.5)^2}{6}σ2=n∑(xi−xˉ)2=6(4−5.5)2+(8−5.5)2+(6−5.5)2+(5−5.5)2+(3−5.5)2+(7−5.5)2

2.25}{6} = \frac{17.5}{6} = 2.9167=62.25+6.25+0.25+0.25+6.25+2.25=617.5=2.9167

Standard deviation σ=2.9167=1.71\sigma = \sqrt{2.9167} = 1.71σ=2.9167=1.71

9. Slope m=6−23−1=42=2m = \frac{6 - 2}{3 - 1} = \frac{4}{2} = 2m=3−16−2=24=2

Equation of the line: y−y1=m(x−x1)y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)y−y1=m(x−x1)

Using point (1,2)(1, 2)(1,2): y−2=2(x−1)y - 2 = 2(x - 1)y−2=2(x−1)

y−2=2x−2y - 2 = 2x - 2y−2=2x−2

y=2xy = 2xy=2x

10. Possible outcomes to get a sum of 8:

 o (2, 6), (3, 5), (4, 4), (5, 3), (6, 2)

Total outcomes = 36 (since a die has 6 faces and it is rolled twice: 6 x 6 = 36)

Probability P=536P = \frac{5}{36}P=365
