(a) symmetric matrix (b) skew-symmetric matrix
(c) Diagonal matrix (d) upper triangular symmetric
Ans: (b) skew-symmetric matrix
A is a skew-symmetric matrix
⇒ A’ = -A
Consider (B’AB)’ = (AB)'(B’)’ = B’A'(B’)’

As (B’AB) = -B’AB
Hence, B’AB is a skew-symmetric matrix.

11. For an L.P.P. the objective function is Z = 4x + 3y, and the feasible region determined by a set of
constraints (linear inequations) is shown in the graph.

Which one of the following statements is true?

(a) Maximum value of Z is at R.
(b) Maximum value of Z is at Q.
(c) Value of Z at R is less than the value at P.
(d) Value of Z at Q is less than the value at R.
Ans: (b) Maximum value of Z is at Q.

 Z = 4x + 3y
at P (0, 40), Z = 4(0) + 3(40) = 120
at Q (30, 20), Z = 4(30) + 3(20) = 180
at R (40, 0), Z = 4(40) + 3(0) = 160

21. Show that the modulus function f : R → R given by f (x) = |x|, is neither one-one nor onto, where
|x| is x, if x is positive or 0 and |x| is –x, if x is negative.
 x, if x  0
Ans: f ( x) | x | 
 x, if x  0
One-one: Let x1 = 1, x2 = –1 be two elements belongs to R
f(x1) = f(1) = |1| and f(x2) = f(–1) = – (–1) = 1
⇒ f(x1) = f(x2) for x1 ≠ x2
⇒ f(x) is not one-one.
Onto: Let f(x) = –1 ⇒ |x| = –1 ∈ R, which is not possible.

We know that two lines with direction ratios a1, b1, c1 and a2, b2, c2 are perpendicular if
a1a2 + b1b2 + c1c2 = 0.

34. Show that each of the relation R in the set A = {x ∈ Z : 0 ≤ x ≤ 12}, given by R = {(a, b) :|a – b|
is a multiple of 4} is an equivalence relation.
Find the set of all elements related to 1 in each case.
Ans: A = {x ∈ Z : 0 ≤ x ≤ 12}
R = {(a, b) : | a – b | is a multiple of 4}
Reflexive: Let x ∈A ⇒ |x – x| = 0, which is a multiple of 4.
⇒ (x, x) ∈ R ∀ x ∈A
∴ R is reflexive.
Symmetric: Let x, y ∈A and (x, y) ∈ R
⇒ |x – y| is a multiple of 4
or x – y = ± 4p {p is any integer}
⇒ y – x =  4p
⇒ | y – x | is a multiple of 4. ⇒ (y, x) ∈ R
⇒ R is symmetric.
Transitive: Let x, y, z ∈ A, (x, y) ∈ R and (y, z) ∈ R
⇒ |x - y| is multiple of 4 and | y – z |is multiple of 4
⇒ x – y is multiple of 4 and y – z is multiple of 4
⇒ (x – y) + (y – z) is multiple of 4 ⇒ (x – z) is multiple of 4.

 Based on the above information, answer the following question.
(i) If R(x) denote the revenue, then find the value of x at which R(x) has maximum value.
(ii) Find the Maximum revenue collected by company
OR
Find the number of cars rented per day, if x = 75.
Ans: (i) Let x be the price charge per car per day and n be the number of cars rented per day.
R(x) = n × x = (1000 – 5x) x = –5x2 + 1000x
⇒ R′(x) = 1000 – 10x
For R(x) to be maximum or minimum, R′(x) = 0
⇒ –10x + 1000 = 0 ⇒ x = 100
Also, R″(x) = –10 < 0
Thus, R(x) is maximum at x = 100
(ii) At x = 100, R(x) is maximum.
Maximum revenue = R(100) = –5(100)2 + 1000(100) = Rs. 50,000
OR
If x = 75, number of cars rented per day is given by
