JEE Main 2020 Paper With Solutions Maths Shift 1

Required area = πr2

\(\begin{array}{l}\int_{0}^{1}(y-y^{2})dy\end{array} \)

Area =

\(\begin{array}{l}2\pi -(\frac{y^{2}}{2}-\frac{y^{3}}{3})_{0}^{1}\end{array} \)

= 2𝜋 – (1/6)

= (1/6)(12𝜋 – 1)

Answer:(b)

Question 2. Total number of six-digit numbers in which only and all the five digits 1,3,5,7 and 9 appear, is
a) 56
b) (½)(6!)
c) 6!
d) (5/2) 6!

Selecting all 5 digits = 5C5 = 1 way

Now, we need to select one more digit to make it a 6 digit number = 5C1 = 5 ways

Total number of permutations =

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{6!}{2!}\end{array} \)

Total numbers = 5C5×5C1×(6!/2!)

= (5/2) 6!

Answer: (d)

Question 3. An unbiased coin is tossed 5 times. Suppose that a variable 𝑋 is assigned the value 𝑘 when 𝑘 consecutive heads are obtained for 𝑘 = 3, 4, 5, otherwise 𝑋 takes the value -1. The expected value of 𝑋, is
a) 1/8
b) 3/16
c) -1/8
d) -3/16

k = no. of consecutive heads

P(k = 3) = 5/32 {HHHTH, HHHTT, THHHT, HTHHH, TTHHH}

P(k = 4) = 2/32 {HHHHT, THHHH}

P(k = 5) = 1/32 {HHHHH}

\(\begin{array}{l}P(\bar{3}\cap \bar{4}\cap \bar{5})= 1-(\frac{5}{32}+\frac{2}{32}+\frac{1}{32}) = \frac{24}{32}\end{array} \)

ƩXP(X) =

\(\begin{array}{l}(-1\times \frac{24}{32})+(3\times \frac{5}{32})+(4\times \frac{2}{32})+(5\times \frac{1}{32})\end{array} \)

= 1/8

Answer: (a)

Question 4. If Re (z-1)/(2z + i) = 1, where z = x+iy, then the point (x,y) lies on a
a) circle whose centre is at (-1/2, -3/2)
b) straight line whose slope is 3/2.
c) circle whose diameter is √5/2
d) straight line whose slope is -2/3.

z = x + iy

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{x+iy-1}{2x+2iy+i} = \frac{(x-1)+iy}{2x+i(2y+1)}\left ( \frac{2x-i(2y+1)}{2x-i(2y+1)}\right )\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{2x(x-1)+y(2y+1)}{4x^{2}+(2y+1)^{2}}= 1\end{array} \)

2x2 + 2y2 – 2x + y = 4x2 + 4y2 + 4y + 1

x2 + y2 + x + (3/2)y + (1/2) = 0

Circle’s centre will be (-1/2, -3/4)

Radius = √[(1/4) + (9/16) – (1/2)] = √5/4

Diameter = √5/2

Answer: (c)

Question 5. If f(a + b + 1 – x) = f(x) ∀x, where a and b are fixed positive real numbers, then
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{(a+b)}\int_{a}^{b}x(f(x)+f(x+1))dx\end{array} \)
is equal to

a)
\(\begin{array}{l}\int_{a-1}^{b-1}f(x)dx\end{array} \)

b)
\(\begin{array}{l}\int_{a+1}^{b+1}f(x+1)dx\end{array} \)

c)
\(\begin{array}{l}\int_{a-1}^{b-1}f(x+1)dx\end{array} \)

d)
\(\begin{array}{l}\int_{a+1}^{b+1}f(x)dx\end{array} \)

f(a + b + 1 – x) = f(x) …(i)

f(a + b – x) = f(x+1) …(ii)

\(\begin{array}{l}I = \frac{1}{(a+b)}\int_{a}^{b}x(f(x)+f(x+1))dx\end{array} \)
…(iii)

From (i) and (ii)

\(\begin{array}{l}I = \frac{1}{(a+b)}\int_{a}^{b}(a+b-x)(f(x+1)+f(x))dx\end{array} \)
…(iv)

Adding (iii) and (iv)

\(\begin{array}{l}2I = \int_{a}^{b}(f(x)+f(x+1))dx\end{array} \)

a) 2√3
b) √3
c) 3/√2
d) 3√2

Let the equation of ellipse be

x2/a2 + y2/b2 = 1

a>b

Now 2ae = 6

2a/e = 12

ae = 3 and a/e = 6

a2 = 18

a2e2 = c2 = a2-b2 = 9

b2 = 9

length of latus rectum = 2b2/a = 2×9/√18 = 3√2

a) 32
b) 60
c) 65
d) 63

1 + 49 + 492 + …. + 49125 = (49126 – 1)/(49 – 1)

= (4963 + 1)( 4963 – 1)/48

= (4963 + 1)((1 + 48)63-1)/48

= (4963 + 1)(1 +48)63 -1)/48

= (4963 + 1)(1 +48 I-1)/48: where I is an integer

= (4963 + 1)I

Greatest positive integer is k = 63

Question 10. If y(α) =
\(\begin{array}{l}\sqrt{2(\frac{\tan \alpha + \cot \alpha }{1+\tan ^{2}\alpha })+\frac{1}{\sin ^{2}\alpha }}\end{array} \)
where α ∈ (3π/4, π) then dy/dα at α = 5π/6 is

a) -1/4
b) 4/3
c) 4
d) -4

y(α) =

\(\begin{array}{l}\sqrt{2(\frac{\tan \alpha + \cot \alpha }{1+\tan ^{2}\alpha })+\frac{1}{\sin ^{2}\alpha }}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}y(\alpha )= \sqrt{2\frac{1}{\sin \alpha \cos \alpha \times \frac{1}{\cos ^{2}\alpha }}+\frac{1}{\sin ^{2}\alpha }}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}y(\alpha )= \sqrt{2\cot \alpha +cosec^{2} \alpha }\end{array} \)

y(α) = √(1+cotα )2

y(α) = -1 – cotα

dy/dα = 0 + cosec2α

dy/dα = cosec2 5π/6

dy/dα = 4

Answer: (c)

Question 11. If y = mx + 4 is a tangent to both the parabolas, y2 = 4x and x2 = 2by, then b is equal to
a) -64
b) 128
c) -128
d) -32

Any tangent to the parabola y2 = 4x is y = mx + a/m

Comparing it with y = mx + 4, we get 1/m = 4

So m = ¼.

Equation of tangent becomes y = (x/4) + 4

y = (x/4) + 4 is a tangent to x2 = 2by

x2 = 2b{(x/4)+4}

Or 2x2 – bx – 16b = 0

D = 0

b2 + 128b = 0

b = 0 (not possible)

b = -128

Answer: (c)

Question 12. Let 𝛼 be a root of the equation x2 + x+ 1= 0 and the matrix A =
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1\\ 1& \alpha & \alpha ^{2}\\ 1& \alpha ^{2} & \alpha ^{4} \end{bmatrix}\end{array} \)
then the matrix A31 is equal to

a) A
b) A2
c) A3
d) I3

The roots of equation 𝑥2 + 𝑥 + 1=0 are complex cube roots of unity.

= ω or ω2

\(\begin{array}{l}A= \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1\\ 1& \alpha & \alpha ^{2}\\ 1& \alpha ^{2} & \alpha ^{4} \end{bmatrix}\end{array} \)

=

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1\\ 1& \omega & \omega ^{2}\\ 1& \omega ^{2} & \omega ^{4} \end{bmatrix}\end{array} \)

A2 =

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{{3}}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1\\ 1& \omega & \omega ^{2}\\ 1& \omega ^{2} & \omega ^{4} \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1\\ 1& \omega & \omega ^{2}\\ 1& \omega ^{2} & \omega ^{4} \end{bmatrix}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}A^{2}=\frac{1}{3}\begin{bmatrix} 3 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 3\\ 0 & 3 & 0 \end{bmatrix}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}A^{2}=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 1\\ 0 & 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}A^{4}=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 1\\ 0 & 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 1\\ 0 & 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}A^{4}=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 1\\ 0 & 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix}= I\end{array} \)

A4 = I

A28 = 𝐼

Therefore, we get

A31 = A28 A3

A31 = IA3

A31 = A3

Answer: (c)

Question 13. If g(x) = x2 + x – 1 and (gof)(x) = 4x2 – 10x + 5, then f(5/4) is equal to
a) -3/2
b) -1/2
c) 1/2
d) 3/2

g(x) = x2 + x – 1

gof(x) = 4x2 – 10x + 5

g(f(x) = 4x2 – 10x + 5

f2(x) + f(x) – 1 = 4x2 – 10x + 5

Putting x = 5/4 and f(5/4) = t

t2 + t + ¼ = 0

t = -1/2 or f(5/4) = -1/2

Answer: (b)

Question 14. Let 𝛼 and 𝛽 are two real roots of the equation (𝑘 + 1) tan2 𝑥 − √2 𝜆 tan 𝑥 = 1 − 𝑘, where (𝑘 ≠ −1) and are real numbers. If tan2(α + β) = 50, then value of 𝜆 is
a) 5√2
b) 10√2
c) 10
d) 5

(k+1) tan2x – √2 tan x = 1 – k

tan2(α + β) = 50

∵ tan α and tan β are the roots of the given equation

Now

tan α + tanβ = √2/(k+1),

tanα tan β= (k -1)/(k+1)

\(\begin{array}{l}\left ( \frac{\frac{\sqrt{2 }\lambda}{k+1}}{1-\frac{k-1}{k+1}} \right )^{2} = 50\end{array} \)

2/4 = 50

λ2 = 100

λ = 10, λ = -10

Answer: (c)

Question 15. Let P be a plane passing through the points (2, 1, 0), (4, 1, 1) and (5, 0, 1) and 𝑅 be any point (2, 1, 6). Then the image of 𝑅 in the plane 𝑃 is:
a) (6, 5, 2)
b) (6, 5, −2)
c) (4,3, 2)
d) (3,4, −2)

Points A(2, 1, 0), B(4, 1, 1) C(5, 0, 1)

\(\begin{array}{l}\vec{AB } = (2,0,1)\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}\vec{AC } = (3,-1,1)\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}\vec{n } = \vec{AB}\times \vec{AC }\end{array} \)

Equation of the plane is x + y -2z = 3….(1)

Let the image of point (2, 1, 6) is (l, m, n)

(l-2)/1 = (m-1)/1 = (n-6)/-2 = -2(-12)/6 = 4

⇒ l = 6, m = 5, n = −2

Hence the image of R in the plane P is (6, 5, −2)

Answer: (b)

Question 16. Let xk + yk = ak, (a,k>0) and (dy/dx) + (y/x)1/3 = 0, then k is
a) 1/3
b) 3/2
c) 2/3
d) 4/3

xk + yk = ak

kxk-1 + kyk-1 (dy/dx) = 0

dy/dx = -(x/y)k-1

dy/dx + (y/x)1-k = 0

1-k = 1/3

k = 2/3

Answer: (c)

Question 17. Let the function, f:[-7, 0] →R be continuous on [−7, 0] and differentiable on (−7, 0). If f(-7)= −3 and 𝑓(𝑥) ≤ 2, for all 𝑥 ∈ (−7, 0), then for all such functions 𝑓, 𝑓(−1) + 𝑓(0) lies in the interval:
a) [-6, 20]
b) (-∞, 20]
c) (-∞, 11]
d) [-3, 11]

f(-7) = -3 and f’(x) ≤ 2

Applying LMVT in [-7,0], we get

(f(-7) – f(0))/-7 = f’(c) ≤ 2

(-3-f(0))/-7 ≤ 2

f(0) + 3 ≤ 14

f(0) ≤ 11

Applying LMVT in [-7, -1], we get

(f(-7) – f(-1))/(-7 +1) = f’(c) ≤ 2

-3 – f(-1))/-6 = f’(c) ≤ 2

f(-1) + 3 = ≤ 12

f(-1) ≤ 9

Therefore f(-1)+ f(0) ≤ 20

Answer (b)

Question 18. If y = y(x) is the solution of the differential equation ey(dy/dx)-1 = ex such that y(0) = 0, then y(1) is equal to
a) loge 2
b) 2e
c) 2 + loge 2
d) 1+loge 2

𝑒y(𝑦 − 1) = 𝑒𝑥

⇒ dy/dx = 𝑒𝑥−𝑦 + 1

Let x-y = t

1 – dy/dx = dt/dx

So, we can write

⇒ 1 − dt/dx = 𝑒𝑡 + 1

⇒ −𝑒−𝑡 𝑑𝑡 = 𝑑𝑥

⇒ 𝑒−𝑡 = 𝑥 + 𝑐

⇒ 𝑒𝑦−𝑥 = 𝑥 + 𝑐

1 = 0 + 𝑐

⇒ 𝑒𝑦−𝑥 = 𝑥 + 1

at 𝑥 = 1

⇒ 𝑒𝑦−1 = 2

⇒ 𝑦 = 1 + log22

Question 19. Five numbers are in A.P., whose sum is 25 and product is 2520. If one of these five numbers is -1/2, then the greatest number amongst them is
a) 16
b) 27
c) 7
d) 21/2

Let 5 numbers be 𝑎 − 2𝑑, 𝑎 − 𝑑, 𝑎, 𝑎 + 𝑑, 𝑎 + 2𝑑

5𝑎 = 25

𝑎 = 5

(𝑎 − 2𝑑)(𝑎 − 𝑑) a (𝑎 + 𝑑)(𝑎 + 2𝑑) = 2520

(25 − 4𝑑2)(25 − 𝑑2) = 504

4𝑑4 − 125𝑑2 + 121 = 0

4𝑑4 − 4𝑑2 − 121𝑑2 + 121 = 0

𝑑2 = 1 𝑜𝑟 𝑑2 = 121/4

d = 11/2

For d = 11/2, a + 2d is the greatest term, a + 2d = 5 + 11 = 16.

Answer: (a)

a) a + b + c = 0
b) a, b, c are in A.P
c) 1/a, 1/b, 1/c are in A.P
d) a, b, c are in G.P

\(\begin{array}{l}\begin{vmatrix} 2 & 2a &a \\ 2& 3b &b \\ 2& 4c & c \end{vmatrix}=0\end{array} \)

R2 R2 – R1

R3 R3 – R1

\(\begin{array}{l}\begin{vmatrix} 2 & 2a &a \\ 0& 3b-2a &b-a \\ 0& 4c-2a & c-a \end{vmatrix}=0\end{array} \)

⇒ (3b − 2𝑎)(𝑐 − 𝑎) − (4𝑐 − 2𝑎)(𝑏 − 𝑎) = 0

⇒ 3𝑏𝑐 − 2𝑎𝑐 − 3𝑎𝑏 + 2𝑎2 − [4𝑏𝑐 − 4𝑎𝑐 − 2𝑎𝑏 + 2𝑎2] = 0

⇒ −𝑏𝑐 + 2𝑎𝑐 − 𝑎𝑏 = 0

⇒ 𝑎𝑏 + 𝑏𝑐 = 2𝑎𝑐

1/c + 1/a = 2/b

For 𝑛 natural number variance is given by

\(\begin{array}{l}\sigma ^{2} = \frac{\sum x_{i}^{2}}{n}- (\frac{\sum x_{i}}{n})^{2}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{\sum x_{i}^{2}}{n}= \frac{1^{2}+2^{2}+..n^{2}}{n} = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6n}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{\sum x_{i}}{n}= \frac{1+2+..n}{n} = \frac{n(n+1)}{2n}\end{array} \)

σ2 = (n2-1)/12 = 10

n = 11

Variance of (2, 4, 6…) = 4×variance of (1,2,3,4…) = 4×(m2-1)/12

= (m2-1)/3

= 16

m = 7

Therefore, n + m = 11 + 7 = 18
