If the position vector of a point P is →r=x^i=y^j+z^k, where x, y, zϵ N and projection of →r on →a=^i+^j+^k is 10√3 then number of possible of P is also equal to
number of ways of selecting two objects out of 10 distinct objects arranged in a row so that no two of them are next to each other
the total number of outcomes when a pair of dice are rolled once.
number of positive divisors of 1800.
Projection of →r on →a is →r.→a|→a|⇒x+y+z=10 (x,y,zϵ N) number of solution =10−1C3−1=9C2=36
(a) x + y + z = 7, x, y, z ≥ 1
⇒X+Y+Z=4 ;where X=x+1, Y=y+1, Z=z+1 ⇒ number of solution =6C2=15
(b) selecting any 2 out of 10 = 10C2 ways
selecting 2 next to each other = 9 ways
Therefore, number of ways of selecting two objects out of 10 distinct objects arranged in a row so that no two of them are next to each other = 10C2−9=36
(c)62=36
(d)1800=23 32 52∴ no. of divisors=(3+1)(2+1)(2+1)=36
