3x+4y =12√2 is a tangent to the ellipse (x2/a2) + (y2/9) = 1
Equation of tangent to ellipse (x2/a2) + (y2/9) = 1 is y = mx + √(a2 m2+ 9)
Now, 3x + 4y = 12√2 ⇒ y = -(3/4)x + 3√2
m = -3/4
And √(a2 m2+ 9) = 3√2
(a2 (-3/4)2+ 9) = 18
a2 (9/16) = 9
a2 = 16
a = 4
e = √(1-b2/a2)
e = √(1-9/16)
= √7/4
Distance between foci is 2ae = 2 × 4 × √7/4
= 2√7

P(Machine being faulty) = p = (1/4)
q = ¾
P(at most two machines being faulty)=P(zero machine being faulty)+P(one machine being
faulty)+P(two machines being faulty)
= 5C0 p0q5 + 5C1 p1q4 + 5C2 p2q3
= q5 + 5pq4 + 10p2q3
= (3/4)5 + 5×(1/4)×(3/4)4 + 10(1/4)2×(3/4)3

a. f(1) –4f(–1) = 4
b. x = 1 is a point of maxima and x = −1 is a point of minimum of f.
c. f is an odd function.
d. x = 1 is a point of minima and x = −1 is a point of maxima of f.
Given
f(x) = ax5 + bx4 + cx3
c = 2
also f’(x) = 5ax4 + 4bx3 + 6x2
f’(1) = 5a + 4b + 6 = 0
f’(-1) = 5a – 4b + 6 = 0
b = 0 and a = -6/5
f(x) = -(6/5)x5 + 2x3
f(x) is odd
f’(x) = -6x4+ 6x2
f’’(x) = -24x3 +12x
(f’’(1) < 0)
(f’’(-1) > 0)
At x = -1 there is local minima and at x = 1 there is local maxima.

a. (p1 + p2 + p3 + p4 + p5) = 26
b. p5 = 11
c. p5 = p2 ⋅ p3
d. p3 = p5 − p4
Given α, β are the roots of x2 − x − 1 = 0
⇒ α + β = 1 & αβ = −1
⇒ α2 = α + 1 & β2 = β + 1
pk = αk−2α2 + βk-2β2
pk = αk−2(α + 1) + βk−2(β + 1)
pk = α k−1 + β k−1 + α k−2 + β k−2
⇒ pk = p k−1 + p k−2
⇒ p3 = p2 + p1 = 4
p4 = p3 + p2 = 7
p5 = p4 + p3 = 11
∴ p5 ≠ p2 ⋅ p3 & p1 + p2 + p3 + p4 + p5 = 26
& p3 = p5 − p4

LMVT is applicable on f(x) in [0,1], therefore it is continuous and differentiable in [0,1]
Now, f(0) = 11, f(1) = 16
f ′(x) = 3x2 − 8x + 8
f’(c) = (f(1) – f(0))/(1-0)
= (16 – 11)/1
⇒ 3c2 − 8c + 8 = 5
⇒ 3𝑐2 − 8𝑐 + 3 = 0
c = (8±2√7)/6 = (4±√7)/3
As c ∈ (0,1)
We get c = (4 – √7)/3
