ISC Class 12 Maths Question Paper Solution 2016-12

A, B and C represent switches in ‘on’ position and Aʹ, Bʹ and Cʹ represent them in ‘off’ position. Using Boolean algebra, simplify the function and construct an equivalent switching circuit.

Answer:

(a)

ISC Class 12 Maths Question Paper Solution 2016-13

(b) F (A, B, C) = A(Aʹ + B) + AʹB+ (A+Bʹ)C

= AAʹ + AB + AʹB + AC + BʹC

= O + B(A+Aʹ) + AC + BʹC

= B + BʹC + AC

= (B +Bʹ) (B+C) + AC

= B + C + AC = B + C

Question 4:

(a) Verify the conditions of Rolle’s Theorem for the following function:

f(x) = log(x2 + 2) – log 3 on [-1,1]

Find a point in the interval, where the tangent to the curve is parallel to x-axis.

(b) Find the equation of the standard ellipse, taking its axes as the coordinate axes, whose minor axis is equal to the distance between the foci and whose length of latus rectum is 10. Also, find its eccentricity.

Answer: (a) f(x) = log(x2+2) – log 3 is continuous [-1, 1]

f ʹ(x) = 2𝑥 / (𝑥2+2)

f ʹ(x) exists in (-1, 1)

f( -1) = f (1) = 0

All the conditions of Rolle’s theorem are satisfied then

there exists ‘c’ in ( -1, 1) such that f ʹ (c) = 0

2c / (1+𝑐2) = 0

c = 0 lies between -1 and 1. Hence, Rolle’s theorem is verified.

The point where the tangent is parallel to x axis is (0, log 2/3)

Question 8:

(a) A committee of 4 persons has to be chosen from 8 boys and 6 girls, consisting of at least one girl. Find the probability that the committee consists of more girls than boys.

(b) An urn contains 10 white and 3 black balls while another urn contains 3 white and 5 black balls. Two balls are drawn from the first urn and put into the second urn and then a ball is drawn from the second urn. Find the probability that the ball drawn from the second urn is a white ball.

Answer: (a) Number of ways the committee can be selected:

= 14C48C4 = 1001 – 70 = 931 or (6C1.8C3)+(6C2.8C2)+(6C3.8C1)+6C4

No. of Committees consists of more girls than boys= 6C4+ 6C3× 8C1

P(E) = 6C4+ 6C3× 8C1 / 931

= 15 +160 / 931 = 175 / 931 = 0·188

(b) P (transferring 2 white balls to urn 2 and drawing a white ball from urn 2)

= 10C2×5C1 / 13C2×10C1

= 45 / 13×12

p (transferring 2 black balls to urn 2 land drawing a white from urn 2)

= 13C2×3C1 / 13C2×10C1

= 9 / 13×12×5

P(transferring1white and a black ball to urn 2 and drawing a white ball from urn 2)

= 10C1×3C1×4C1 / 13C2×10C1

= 24 / 13×12

Question 12:

(a) In an automobile factory, certain parts are to be fixed into the chassis in a section before it moves into another section. On a given day, one of the three persons A, B and C carries out this task. A has 45% chance, B has 35% chance and C has 20% chance of doing the task. The probability that A, B and C will take more than the allotted time is 1/6,1/10, 1/20 respectively. If it is found that the time taken is more than the allotted time, what is the probability that A has done the task?

(b) The difference between mean and variance of a binomial distribution is 1 and the difference of their squares is 11. Find the distribution.

Answer: (a) Let E1, E2, E3, denote the events of carrying out the task by A, B and C respectively.

Let H denote the event of taking more time.

Then P(E1) = 0.45

P(E2) = 0.35

P(E3) = 0.20

P(H/E1) = 1/6

P(H/E2) = 1/10

P(H/E3) = 1/20

ISC Class 12 Maths Question Paper Solution 2016-34

(b) np – npq = 1, np(1 – q) = 1 ………………..(i)

(np)2 – (npq)2 = 11, (np)2 (1 – q2) = 11 …………(ii)

dividing (ii) by (i), we get (1 + q) / (1−1) = 11

1 + q = 11 – 11q

12q = 10

q = 5/6, p = 1/6

we get n = 36

The distribution is given by (1/6 + 5/6)36 or x ~ B (36, 1/6)

Question 13:

(a) A man borrows 20,000 at 12% per annum, compounded semi-annually and agrees to pay it in 10 equal semi-annual installments. Find the value of each installment, if the first payment is due at the end of two years

(b) A company manufactures two types of products A and B. Each unit of A requires 3 grams of nickel and r grams of chromium, while each unit of B requires 1 gram of nickel and 2 grams of chromium. The firm can produce 9 grams of nickel and 8 grams of chromium. The profit is Rs 40 on each unit of product qf type A and Rs 50 on each unit of type B. How many units of each type should the company manufacture so as to earn maximum profit? Use linear programming to find the solution.

Answer: (a)

ISC Class 12 Maths Question Paper Solution 2016-35

(b) Let x units of product A and y units of product B.

ISC Class 12 Maths Question Paper Solution 2016-36

Maximize Z = 40x + 50y

Subject to constraints

3x + y ≤ 9

x + 2y ≤ 8

x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0

Solving, we get A(0, 4), B(3, 0), C(2, 3)

At A, z = 40×0 + 50× 4 = ₹ 200

B, z = 40×3 + 50×0 = ₹ 120

C, z = 40×2 + 50×3 = ₹ 230

Maximum profit is ₹ 230, when 2 units of type A and 3 units of type B are produced.

Question 14:

(a) The demand function is x = (24−2p) / 3 where x is the number of units demanded and p is the price per unit. Find:

(i) The revenue function R in terms of p.

(ii) The price and the number of units demanded for which the revenue is maximum.

(b) A bill of ₹ 1,800 drawn on 10th September, 2010 at 6 months was discounted for ₹1,782 at a bank. If the rate of interest was 5% per annum, on what date was the bill discounted?

Answer:

ISC Class 12 Maths Question Paper Solution 2016-37

(b) A = 1800; i= 5% p.a.

BD = 1800 – 1782 = 18

BD = Ani

⇒18 = 1800 × n × 5/100

⇒ n = 1/5 year = 73 days

Date of expiry: March 13, 2011

Date of discounting: December 30, 2010.

Question 15:

(a) The index number by the method of aggregates for the year 2010, taking 2000 as the base year, was found to be 116. If sum of the prices in the year 2000 is Rs 300, find the values of x and y in the data given below:
