To find the region of x ≤ 3y: The line x = 3y divides the cartesian plane into two half planes. Consider the point (1,1) this point satisfies the inequality x < 3y. This point (1,1) lies above the line x = 3y.

Hence all points satisfying the inequality lie above the line x = 3y.

Therefore x < 3y represents the upper half plane of the Cartesian plane bounded by the line x = 3y. Since x ≤ 3y, this region also contains all the points on the straight line x = 3y.

When x < 0 say x = – 1
The factor x3 = (- 1)3 = – 1 < 0
The factor x – 1 = – 1 – 1 = – 2 < 0
The factor x – 2 = – 1 – 2 = – 3 < 0
∴ \(\frac{x^{3}(x-1)}{x-2}\) < 0
Thus \(\frac{x^{3}(x-1)}{x-2}\) > 0 is not true in the interval (- ∞, 0)
Therefore, it has no solution in the interval (- ∞, 0)

(2) (0, 1)
When 0 < x < 1 say x = 0.5
The factor x3 = (0.5 )3 > 0
The factor x – 1 = 0.5 – 1 = – 0.5 < 0
The factor x – 2 = 0.5 – 2 = – 1.5 < 0
Thus x3 > 0, x – 1 < 0 and x – 2 < 0
∴ \(\frac{x^{3}(x-1)}{x-2}\) > 0
Thus \(\frac{x^{3}(x-1)}{x-2}\) > 0 is true in the interval (0, 1)
Therefore it has solution in (0,1)

(3) (1, 2)
When 1 < x < 2 say x = 1.5
The factor x3 = 0
The factor x – 1 = 1.5 – 1 = 0.5 > 0
The factor x – 2 = 1.5 – 2 = – 0.5 < 0
Thus x3 > 0, x – 1 > 0 and x – 2 < 0
∴ \(\frac{x^{3}(x-1)}{x-2}\) < 0
Thus \(\frac{x^{3}(x-1)}{x-2}\) > 0 is not true in the interval (1, 2).
Therefore it has no solution in (1, 2).

(iii) y = x2 + 6x + 9
Answer:
(i) y = x2 + x + 2
y = x2 + x + 2 ——— (1)
Compare this equation with the equation
ax2 + bx + c = 0
we have a = 1 , b = 1, c = 2
b2 – 4ac = 12 – 4 × 1 × 2 = 1 – 8
b2 – 4ac = – 7 < 0
Since the discriminant is negative the quadratic equation has no real roots and therfore the graph does not meet x-axis.

(ii) y = x2 – 3x – 7
y = x2 – 3x – 7 ——— (2)
Compare this equation with the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0
we have a = 1 , b = – 3 , c = – 1
b2 – 4ac = (-3)2 – 4(1)(-1)
= 9 + 4
b2 – 4ac = 13 > 0
Since the discriminant is positive the quadratic equation has real and distinct roots and therefore the graph intersect the x – axis at two different points,

(iii) y = x2 + 6x + 9
y = x2 + 6x + 9 ——— (3)
Compare this equation with the equation

we have a = 1 , b = 6, c = 9
b2 – 4ac = 62 – 4 × 1 × 9
= 36 – 36 =0
Since the discriminant is zero the quadratic equation has real and equal roots and therefore the graph touches the x-axis at one point.

Answer:
Required marks = 5 × 90 = 450

A manufacturer has 600 litres of a 12 percent solution of acid. How many litres of a 30 percent acid solution must be added to it so that the acid content in the resulting mixture will be more than 15 percent but less than 18 percent?
Answer:
Amount of 12% solution of acid = 600 litres
Let x be the required number litres of 30 % acid solution to be added to the given 600 litres of 12 % acid solution to make the resulting mixture will be more than 15 % but less than 18 %.

∴ Total amount of mixture = (600 + x) litres
30% acid solution of x litres + 12% acid solution of 600 litres > 15% acid solution of (600 + x) litres
\(\frac{30}{100}\) × x + \(\frac{12}{100}\) × 600 > \(\frac{15}{100}\) × (600 + x)
30x + 7200 > 9000 + 15x
30x – 15x > 9000 – 7200
15x > 1800
x > \(\frac{1800}{15}\) = 120
x > 120 ——– (1)
Also 30% acid solution of x litres + 12% acid solution of 600 litres < 18% acid solution of ( 600 + x) litres.
\(\frac{30}{100}\) × x + \(\frac{12}{100}\) × 600 < \(\frac{15}{100}\) × (600 + x)
30x + 7200 < 18 (600 + x)
30x + 7200 < 10800 + 18x
30x – 18x < 10,800 – 7200
12x < 3600
x < \(\frac{3600}{12}\) = 300
x < 300 ——- (2)
From equations (1) and (2), we get ) 120 < x < 300
∴ The numbers of litres of the 30% acid solution to be added is greater than 120 litres and less than 300 litres.

Classify each element of {√7, \(-\frac{1}{4}\), 0, 3.14 , 4, \(\frac{22}{7}\)} as a member of N, Q, R – Q or Z.
Answer:
√7 is an irrational number. ∴ √7 ∈ R – Q
\(-\frac{1}{4}\) is a negative rational number. ∴ \(-\frac{1}{4}\) ∈ Q
0 is an integer. ∴ 0 ∈ Z , Q
3.14 is a rational number. ∴ 3.14 ∈ Q
4 is a positive integers. ∴ 4 ∈ Z, N, Q
\(\frac{22}{7}\) is an rational number. ∴ \(\frac{22}{7}\) ∈ Q

Question 2.
Prove that √3 is an irrational number.
Answer:
Suppose that √3 is rational. Let √3 = \(\frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{n}}\) where m and n are positive integers with no common factors greater than 1.
√3 = \(\frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{n}}\)
⇒ √3n = m
⇒ 3n2 = m2 ——– (1)
By assumption n is an integer
∴ n2 is an integer. Hence 3n2 is an integral multiple of 3.
∴ From equation (1) m2 is an integral multiple of 3
⇒ m is an intergral multiple of 3

[Here m is an integer and m2 is an integral multiple of 3. That m2 is cannot take all integral multiples of 3. For example suppose m2 = 3 = 1 × 3 which is an integral multiple of 3. In this case m = √3 which is not an integer. Suppose m2 = 6 = 2 × 3 which is an integer multiple of 3 , but m = √2 √3 which is an integer. Hence m2 is an integral multiple of 3. Such that m is an integer.
Examples: m2 = 4 × 9,
m2 = 9,
m2 = 9 × 9 etc.]

Let m = 3k
where k is an integer
Using equation (1) we have
3n2 = (3k)2
⇒ 3n2 = 9k2
⇒ n2 = 3k2
∴ n2 is an integral multiple of 3. Since, n is an integer, we have n is also an integral multiple of 3.

Thus we have proved both m and n are integral multiple of 3. Hence both m and n have common factor 3, which is a contradiction to our assumption that m and n are integers with no common factors greater than 1.

Hence our assumption that √3 is a rational number is wrong.
∴ √3 is an irrational number.

Question 3.
Are there two distinct irrational numbers such that their difference is a rational number? Justify.
Answer:
Taking two irrational numbers as 3 + \(\sqrt{2}\) and 1 + \(\sqrt{2}\)
Their difference is a rational number. But if we take two irrational numbers as 2 – \(\sqrt{3}\) and 4 + \(\sqrt{7}\).
Their difference is again an irrational number. So unless we know the two irrational numbers we cannot say that their difference is a rational number or irrational number.

Question 4.
Find two irrational numbers such that their sum is a rational number. Can you find two irrational numbers whose product is a rational number?
Answer:
(i) Let the two irrational numbers as 2 + \(\sqrt{3}\) and 3 – \(\sqrt{3}\)
Their sum is 2 + \(\sqrt{3}\) + 3 – 3\(\sqrt{3}\) which is a rational number.
But the sum of 3 + \(\sqrt{5}\) and 4 – \(\sqrt{7}\) is not a rational number. So the sum of two irrational numbers is either rational or irrational.

(ii) Again taking two irrational numbers as π and \(\frac{3}{\pi}\) their product is \(\sqrt{3}\) and \(\sqrt{2}\) = \(\sqrt{3}\) × \(\sqrt{2}\) which is irrational, So the product of two irrational numbers is either rational or irrational.

Question 5.
Find a positive number smaller than \(\frac{1}{2^{1000}}\) Justify.
Answer:
The given number is \(\frac{1}{2^{1000}}\)
We have 1000 < 1001
⇒ 21000 < 21001
⇒ \(\frac{1}{2^{1000}}\) > \(\frac{1}{2^{1001}}\)
∴ A positive number smaller than \(\frac{1}{2^{1000}}\) is \(\frac{1}{2^{1001}}\)
