Question 1

On a bargain counter, the shopkeeper puts labels on various goods showing their prices, Rs. P, where P is real numbers. Write a mathematical sentences for each of the following labels

(a) more than Rs. 7.50

(b) not less than Rs. 10

(c) not more than Rs. 22

(d) less than Rs. 11

Sol :

Since the price on label is Rs P, then

(a) more than Rs. 7.50 ⇒ P > 7.50

(b) not less than Rs. 10 ⇒ $P \not < 10$ or P ≥ 10

Question 6

(a) x ∈ {2, 4, 6, 9} and y ∈ {4, 6, 18, 27, 54}. Form all ordered pairs (x, y) such that x is a factor of y and x < y.

(b) Find the truth set of the inequality x > y + 2, where (x, y) ∈ {(1, 2), (2, 3), (5, 1), (7, 3), (5, 6)}

Sol :

(a) x ∈ {2, 4, 6, 9} and y ∈ {4, 6, 18, 27, 54}.

(x, y) = x is a factor of y and x < y.

2 is a factor of 4, 6, 18, 54 and 2 < 4, 2 < 6, 2 < 18, 2 < 54, then (x, y) forms the ordered pairs as (2, 4), (2, 6), (2, 18), (2, 54).

4 is a factor of 4 but 4 = 4, then (4, 4) is not in (x, y).

6 is a factor of 18, 54 and 6 < 18, 6 < 54, then (x, y) forms the ordered pairs as (6, 18), (6, 54).

9 is a factor of 18, 27, 54 and 9 < 18, 9 < 27, 9 < 54 then (x, y) forms the ordered pairs as (9, 18), (9, 27), (9, 54).

Thus, the solution set of (x, y) is {(2, 4), (2, 6), (2, 18), (2, 54), (6, 18), (6, 54), (9, 18), (9, 27), (9, 54)}.

(b) Given inequality is x > y + 2. It means x is greater than y + 2.

In {(1, 2), (2, 3), (5, 1), (7, 3), (5, 6)}, we see that (5, 1) and (7, 3) are two pairs which satisfy the given inequality.

Thus, the solution set of (x, y) is {(5, 1), (7, 3)}.

(iii) $x^2 = 9 $; {-3, -2, -1, 1, 2, 3}

(iv) $x + \frac{1}{x}$= 2 ; {0, 1, 2, 3}

(v) $3x^2 < 2x$ ; {-4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4}

(vi) 2(x – 3) < 1 ; {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}

Sol :

(i) Given replacement set is {1, 2}.

Now given inequality is $\frac{5}{x}> 7 $

⇒ $x < \frac{5}{7} $

⇒ x < 0.71

Thus, the solution set of the given inequality is x ∈ φ.


(ii) Given replacement set is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

Now given inequality is $\frac{5}{x}> 2 $

⇒ $x < \frac{5}{2}$

⇒ x < 2.5

Thus, the solution set of the given inequality is x ∈ {1, 2}.


(iii) Given replacement set is {-3, -2, -1, 1, 2, 3}.

Now given equation is $x^2 = 9 $

⇒ x = 3 or -3.

Thus, the solution set of the given equation is x ∈ {-3, 3}.


(iv) Given replacement set is {0, 1, 2, 3}.

Now given equation is

$x + \frac{1}{x} = 2$ ⇒ $(x^2 + 1) = 2x $

⇒$(x2 -2x + 1) = 0 $

⇒ (x – 1)2 = 0

⇒ (x – 1) = 0

⇒ x = 1.

Thus, the solution set of the given equation is x ∈ {1}.


(v) Given replacement set is {-4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4}.

Now given inequality is $3x^2 < 2x $

⇒$ 3x^2 – 2x < 0 $

⇒ x(3x – 2) < 0

⇒ $0 < x < \frac{2}{3} $

⇒ 0 < x < 0.66

Thus, the solution set of the given inequality is x ∈ φ.


(vi)
Given replacement set is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}.

Now given inequality is 2(x – 3) < 1 ⇒ x – 3 < 0.5 ⇒ x < 3.5.

Thus, the solution set of the given inequality is x ∈ {1, 2, 3}.

Question 8

Statement: The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the length of its third side.

Let x, x+1, x+2 be the lengths of the three sides of a triangle.

(i) Write down the three inequations in x, each of which represents the given statement.

(ii) List the set of possible values of x which satisfy all the three inequations obtained in your answer to part (i) above, given that x is an integer.

Sol :

The lengths of the three sides of a triangle are x, x+1, x+2.

(i)

Since the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the length of its third side, we have three inequality as below.

x + (x + 1) > (x + 2) ⇒ 2x + 1 > x + 2 ⇒ x > 1 …(1)

x + (x + 2) > (x + 1) ⇒ 2x + 2 > x + 1 ⇒ x > -1 …(2)

(x + 1) + (x + 2) > x ⇒ 2x + 3 > x ⇒ x > -3 …(3)

On combining (1), (2), (3), we get x > 1.

(ii) Since replacement set of x is an integer, means x ∈ {…, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, …}.

The solution set of x > 1 is x ∈ { 2, 3, 4, …}.

Question 9

Answer True or False

(a) If x + 10 = y + 14, then x > y

(b) |-4| – 4 = 8

(c) If 10 – x > 3, then x < 7

(d) If p = q + 2, then p > q

(e) If a and b are two negative integers such that a < b, then $\frac{1}{a} < \frac{1}{b}$

(f) 3 ∈ {x : 3x – 2 ≥ 5}

Sol :

(a) x + 10 = y + 14 
⇒ x – y = 14 – 10 
⇒ x – y = 4 
⇒ x – y > 0 
⇒ x > y.

Thus, the given statement “If x + 10 = y + 14, then x > y” is TRUE.

(b) |-4| – 4 = 4 – 4 = 0

Thus, the given statement “|-4| – 4 = 8” is FALSE.

(c) 10 – x > 3 
⇒ 10 – 3 > x 
⇒ 7 > x 
⇒ x > 7

Thus, the given statement “If 10 – x > 3, then x < 7” is TRUE.

(d) p = q + 2 
⇒ p – q = 2 
⇒ p – q > 0 
⇒ p > q

Thus, the given statement “If p = q + 2, then p > q” is TRUE.

(e) a < b 
⇒ $\frac{1}{a} > \frac{1}{b}$

Thus, the given statement “If a and b are two negative integers such that a < b, then $\frac{1}{a} < \frac{1}{b}$” is FALSE.

(f) 3x – 2 ≥ 5 
⇒ 3x ≥ 7 
⇒ $x ≥ \frac{7}{3}$
⇒ x ≥ 2.3

Thus, the given statement “3 ∈ {x : 3x – 2 ≥ 5}” is TRUE.

If x is a negative integer, find the solution set of $\frac{2}{3} + \frac{(x + 1)}{3}> 0$.

Sol :

⇒ $\frac{2}{3} + \frac{(x + 1)}{3} > 0$

⇒ (x + 1)/3 > -2/3

⇒ x + 1 > -2
