Solution
1. (d) 0, Explanation:
2. (a) Neither decreasing nor increasing, Explanation: f(x) = x2
f'(x) = 2x for all x in R. Since f ‘(x) = 2x > 0 for x >0, and f ‘ (x) = 2x< 0 for x < 0, therefore on R, f is neither increasing nor decreasing. Infact , f is strict increasing on [ 0, ) and strict decreasing on (- ]. 3. (d) cot t, Explanation: Given,
Slope of the tangent
4. (d) , Explanation: f ‘ (x ) = 2x – 2 = 2 ( x - 1) <0 if x < 1 i.e. x .
Hence f is strict decreasing in
5. (a) ty = x +at2, Explanation:
at is Slope of tangent Hence, equation of tangent is
6. 7. -1 8. x + y = 0 9.
3/8 Put f(3.02)={3(9)+5(3)+3}+{6(3)+5}×0.02 =45+0.46 f(3.02) = 45.46 10. we have, xy =1
The slope of the normal = x2
If ax+by+c=0 is normal to the curve xy=1,then
11. f(x) = x2e-x
Differentiating w.r.t x, we get, f'(x) = For increasing function, f'(x)
[ is always positive] [ since - ( x - 2) will change the inequality ) Here x < 0 & (x - 2) > 0 x<0&x>2 0<x<2 But when x > 0 & (x - 2) < 0 x>0&x<2
