Q161
The sum of all natural numbers 'n' such that 100 < n < 200 and H.C.F. (91, n) > 1 is :
A 3221
B 3121
C 3203
D 3303
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

\because 91 = 13 ×\times 7 So the required numbers are either divisible by 7 or 13.

SA = sum of numbers between 100 and 200 which are divisible by 7.

\Rightarrow SA = 105 + 112 + .....

+ 196 SA =

142[105+196]{{14} \over 2}\left[ {105 + 196} \right]

= 2107 SB = Sum of numbers between 100 and 200 which are divisible by 13. SB = 104 + 117 + ....... + 195 SB =

82[104+195]{8 \over 2}\left[ {104 + 195} \right]

= 1196 SC = Sum of numbers between 100 and 200 which are divisible by 7 and 13.

SC = 182 Sum of numbers divisible by 7 or 13 = Sum of no. divisible by 7 + sum of the no. divisible by 13 – Sum of the numbers divisible by 7 and 13 = 2107 + 1196 - 182 = 3121

Q162
For x ε\varepsilon R, let [x] denote the greatest integer \le x, then the sum of the series [13]+[131100]+[132100]+....+[1399100]\left[ { - {1 \over 3}} \right] + \left[ { - {1 \over 3} - {1 \over {100}}} \right] + \left[ { - {1 \over 3} - {2 \over {100}}} \right] + .... + \left[ { - {1 \over 3} - {{99} \over {100}}} \right] is :
A - 153
B - 135
C - 133
D - 131
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
[13]+[131100]+[132100]+\left[ {{{ - 1} \over 3}} \right] + \left[ {{{ - 1} \over 3} - {1 \over {100}}} \right] + \left[ {{{ - 1} \over 3} - {2 \over {100}}} \right] +
.......+[1399100]....... + \left[ {{{ - 1} \over 3} - {{99} \over {100}}} \right]
(111.....67×)+(222.....33×)\Rightarrow ( - 1 - 1 - 1 - .....67\,\times) + ( - 2 - 2 - 2 - .....33\,\times)

\Rightarrow -133

Q163
Let a1, a2, a3,......be an A.P. with a6 = 2. Then the common difference of this A.P., which maximises the product a1a4a5, is :
A 32{3 \over 2}
B 65{6 \over 5}
C 85{8 \over 5}
D 23{2 \over 3}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

first term = a, Common difference = d \therefore a + 5d = 2 a1. a4. a5 = a(a + 3d) (a + 4d) f(d) = (2 – 5d) (2 – 2d) (2 – d) \Rightarrow

f(d)=0d=23,85f'(d) = 0 \Rightarrow d = {2 \over 3},{8 \over 5}

\Rightarrow

f(d)<0atd=85f''(d) < 0\,at\,d = {8 \over 5}
d=85\, \Rightarrow d = {8 \over 5}
Q164
The sum of all two digit positive numbers which when divided by 7 yield 2 or 5 as remainder is -
A 1356
B 1256
C 1365
D 1465
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
r=213(7r+2)=7.2+132×6+2×12\sum\limits_{r = 2}^{13} {(7r + 2) = 7.{{2 + 13} \over 2}} \times 6 + 2 \times 12

= 7 ×\times90 + 24 = 654

r=113(7r+5)=7(1+132)×13+5×13=702\sum\limits_{r = 1}^{13} {(7r + 5) = 7\left( {{{1 + 13} \over 2}} \right)} \times 13 + 5 \times 13 = 702

Total = 654 + 702 = 1356

Q165
If the first term of an A.P. is 3 and the sum of its first 25 terms is equal to the sum of its next 15 terms, then the common difference of this A.P. is :
A 14{1 \over 4}
B 15{1 \over 5}
C 17{1 \over 7}
D 16{1 \over 6}
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

First 25 terms = a, a + d, .......,a + 24d Next 15 terms = a + 25d, a + 26d, ......, a + 39d \therefore

252[2a+24d]=152[2(a+25d)+14d]{{25} \over 2}\left[ {2a + 24d} \right] = {{15} \over 2}\left[ {2\left( {a + 25d} \right) + 14d} \right]

\Rightarrow 50a + 600d = 15 [2a + 50d + 14d] \Rightarrow 20a + 600d = 960d \Rightarrow 60 = 360d \Rightarrow d =

16{1 \over 6}
Q166
If 32sin2α1{3^{2\sin 2\alpha - 1}}, 14 and 342sin2α{3^{4 - 2\sin 2\alpha }} are the first three terms of an A.P. for some α\alpha , then the sixth terms of this A.P. is:
A 66
B 81
C 65
D 78
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Given that

34sin2α+32sin2α1=28{3^{4 - \sin 2\alpha }} + {3^{2\sin 2\alpha - 1}} = 28

Let

32sin2α{3^{2\sin 2\alpha }}

= t \Rightarrow

81t+t3=28{{81} \over t} + {t \over 3} = 28

\Rightarrowt = 81, 3 \therefore

32sin2α{3^{2\sin 2\alpha }}

= 31, 34

sin2α=12\sin 2\alpha = {1 \over 2}

, 2 (rejected) First term a =

32sin2α1{3^{2\sin 2\alpha -1}}

= 30 \Rightarrow a = 1 Given Second term = 14 \therefore Common difference d = 13

T6=a+5d{T_6} = a + 5d
T6=1+5×13{T_6} = 1 + 5 \times 13
T6=66{T_6} = 66
Q167
If the sum of the series 20 + 1935{3 \over 5} + 1915{1 \over 5} + 1845{4 \over 5} + ... upto nth term is 488 and the nth term is negative, then :
A n = 41
B n = 60
C nth term is –4
D nth term is -425{2 \over 5}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
S=1005+985+965+945+...nS = {{100} \over 5} + {{98} \over 5} + {{96} \over 5} + {{94} \over 5} + ...\,n
Sn=n2(2×1005+(n1)(25))=488\,{S_n} = {n \over 2}\left( {2 \times {{100} \over 5} + (n - 1)\left( {{{ - 2} \over 5}} \right)} \right) = 488

\Rightarrow

n(100n+1)=488×5n(100 - n + 1) = 488 \times 5

\Rightarrow

n2101n+488×5=0{n^2} - 101n + 488 \times 5 = 0

\Rightarrow

n=61,40n = 61,\,40

For negative term n = 61

Tn=a+(n1)d=100525×60\,{T_n} = a + (n - 1)d = {{100} \over 5} - {2 \over 5} \times 60
=2024=4= 20 - 24 = - 4
Q168
Let a1{a_1} , a2{a_2} , a3{a_3} ,....... be a G.P. such that a1{a_1} < 0, a1{a_1} + a2{a_2} = 4 and a3{a_3} + a4{a_4} = 16. If i=19ai=4λ\sum\limits_{i = 1}^9 {{a_i}} = 4\lambda , then λ\lambda is equal to:
A 171
B -171
C -513
D 5113{{511} \over 3}
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution
a1{a_1}

+

a2{a_2}

= 4 \Rightarrow

a1{a_1}

+

a1{a_1}

r = 4 ...(1)

a3{a_3}

a4{a_4}

= 16 \Rightarrow

a1{a_1}

r2 +

a1{a_1}

r3 = 16 ...(2) Doing (1)

÷\div

(2), we get r = ±\pm 2 If r = 2, then a1 =

43{4 \over 3}

If r = -2, then a1 = -4 Given

a1{a_1}

< 0 \therefore a1 = -4 \therefore

i=19ai\sum\limits_{i = 1}^9 {{a_i}}

=

a(r91)r1{{a\left( {{r^9} - 1} \right)} \over {r - 1}}

= 4λ\lambda \Rightarrow

4((2)91)21{{ - 4\left( {{{\left( { - 2} \right)}^9} - 1} \right)} \over { - 2 - 1}}

= 4λ\lambda \Rightarrow λ\lambda = -171

Q169
If the sum of the first 40 terms of the series, 3 + 4 + 8 + 9 + 13 + 14 + 18 + 19 + ..... is (102)m, then m is equal to :
A 20
B 5
C 10
D 25
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

3 + 4 + 8 + 9 + 13 + 14 +…….upto 40 terms \Rightarrow 7 + 17 + 27 +…….20 terms S =

202{{20} \over 2}

[2 × 7 + 19 × 10] = 102 × 20 = 102 m \therefore m = 20
