A) 2×2+ 3 = 0
B) 3y + 2 = 0
C) x3− 2x + 5 = 0
D) 4y2− 9 = 0
ANS:- B) 3y+2=0
Sol:- A linear equation in one variable involves only one variable raised to the power of 1. Let’s examine each option:
option A) 2×2+ 3 = 0 – This equation involves x raised to the power of 2, so it is not linear in one variable.
Option B) 3y + 2 = 0 – This equation involves only y raised to the power of 1, making it a linear equation in one variable.
Option C) x3− 2x + 5 = 0 – This equation involves x raised to the power of 3, so it is not linear in one variable.
Option D) 4y2−9=0 – This equation involves y raised to the power of 2, so it is not linear in one variable.
Therefore, the correct answer is B) 3y+2=0 - What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?
A) y = mx + c
B) y = ax2+bx + c
C) y = mx
D) y = 1/x
ANS:- A) y = mx + c
Sol:- The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is represented as A) y = mx + c
In this form:
m represents the slope of the line, c represents the y-intercept, the point where the line intersects the y-axis.
So, the correct answer is A) y = mx + c - If sinθ= 24 / 25, what is the value of cosecθ?
A) 7 / 24
B) 25 / 24
C) 24 / 7
D) 25 / 7
ANS:- B) 25/24
Sol:- Given that Sinθ = 24/25, we know that cscθ = 1/sinθ
Cscθ = 1/ (24/25)
cscθ = 25/24
Therefore, the value of cscθ is 25/24
So, the correct answer is B) 25/24 - The value of √10 times √15 is equal to
a. 5√6
b. √25
c. 10√5
d. √5
Answer: a. 5√6
Explanation: √10×√15 =(√2.√5)×(√3. √5) = (√5 × √5) (√2 × √3) = 5√6. - What is the composition of relations S = {(1,2),(2,3)} and T = {(2,4),(3,5)}?
A) {(1,4),(2,5)}
B) {(1,3),(2,4)}
C) {(2,2),(3,3)}
D) {(1,5),(2,3)}.
ANS:- A) {(1,4),(2,5)}
Sol:- To compute the composition of relations S and T, denoted as S∘T, we need to find all pairs (a,c) such that there exists an element b for which (a,b) is in S and (b,c) is in T.
Given S={(1,2),(2,3)} and T={(2,4),(3,5)}, let’s find S∘T:
For a=1:
There’s no pair in S with the first element being 1, so we can’t form any pairs with T.
For a=2:
From S, we have (2,3).
From T, we have (3,5).
So, for a=2, we have the pair (2,5).
Putting it together, the composition S∘T contains the pair (2,5).
So, the correct answer is A) {(1,4),(2,5)} - Which of the following is an example of a double displacement reaction?
(a) 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O
(b) 2H2O → 2H2 + O2
(c) Fe + 2HCl → FeCl2 + H2
(d) 2NaCl + Pb(NO3)2 → 2NaNO3 + PbCl2
Answer: (d) 2NaCl + Pb(NO3)2 → 2NaNO3 + PbCl2 - What do you name the variation between any two colours that deviates from the norm?
