Section A – Multiple Choice & Assertion–Reason Questions

Q1. −41 mod 9 is

(A) 5 (B) 4 (C) 3 (D) 0

ANSWER
Divide −41 by 9

Greatest integer ≤ −4.555 is −5

Option (B)

Q2. If a > b and c < 0, then which of the following is true?

ANSWER
We compare:

Rewrite using :

So we are comparing:

Since , adding a positive number to and subtracting a positive number from makes the left side much larger.

Option (D)

Q3. If A and B are symmetric matrices of the same order, then (AB′ − BA′) is a

ANSWER
If a matrix is symmetric, then

Take transpose of the expression

Since and ,

A matrix is skew-symmetric if

Here we found:

So the matrix is skew-symmetric.

Option (D)

Q4. The inverse of matrix A =

$$
A =
\begin{pmatrix}
a & b \\
c & d
\end{pmatrix}
$$

is

(A)
$$
\frac{1}{ad – bc}
\begin{pmatrix}
d & -b \\
-c & a
\end{pmatrix}
$$

(B)
$$
\frac{1}{ad + bc}
\begin{pmatrix}
d & b \\
c & a
\end{pmatrix}
$$

(C)
$$
\frac{1}{ad – bc}
\begin{pmatrix}
a & -b \\
-c & d
\end{pmatrix}
$$

(D)
$$
\frac{1}{ad + bc}
\begin{pmatrix}
a & b \\
c & d
\end{pmatrix}
$$

ANSWER
Formula for inverse of a 2×2 matrix

Option (A)

Q5. If , then the value of x is

ANSWER
Two matrices are equal only if corresponding elements are equal.

So we compare entries:

Top-left:

Bottom-right:

For the matrices to be equal, both conditions must be true at the same time.

But

So no value of x satisfies both equations simultaneously.

None of the given options satisfies the condition.

Q6. The slope of the normal to the curve at x = 6 is

ANSWER
Using the quotient rule:

Find slope of the tangent at

So, slope of tangent = −1/4

Slope of normal = negative reciprocal of slope of tangent

Option (A)

Q7. The rate of change of population P(t) with respect to time t, where α, β are constant birth and death rates respectively, is

(A)
$$
\frac{dP}{dt} = (\alpha + \beta)P
$$

(B)
$$
\frac{dP}{dt} = (\alpha – \beta)P
$$

(C)
$$
\frac{dP}{dt} = \alpha – \beta
$$

(D)
$$
\frac{dP}{dt} = \alpha P – \beta
$$

ANSWER
Population increases due to births and decreases due to deaths.

Births per unit time = αP
Deaths per unit time = βP

So,

Option (B)

Q8–Q20
