A doubt from FIITJEE PT 1

Paper 2

Let x1,x2,....,xn be a sequence of integers such that -1 ≤ xi ≤ 2 for all i belongs to {1,2,...n} ;

x1 +x2 + x3 + ....+ xn = 19

x12+x22 +...+xn2 = 99

Let m,M be the least and greatest values of x13 + x23 +...+xn3 then

(A) m=17

(B) m=19

(C)M/m = 7

(D) M/m = 6

Let f: R+ ---> R+ be a differentiable function satisfying f(xy) = f(x)/y + f(y)/x

for all x,y ε R+ also

f(!) = 0 , f ' (1) = 1 . If M be the greatest value of f(x) then find the value of [M+e] .

(where [.] denotes the greatest integer function)

f(x+h)-f(x)/h = f'(x)

[f(x(1+h/x)) -f(x)]/h
= 1/h[f(x)/(1+h/x) + f(1+h/x)/x -f(x) ]

= f(x)[-1/x]/[1+h/x] + [1/x^2]f(1+h/x)/h/x

as h-->0

-f(x)/x + f'(1)/x^2 = f'(x) !!!

1/x^2-f(x)/x = df(x)/dx

1/x^2 = f(x)/x + f'(x)

IF = e^lnx =x

so ∫1/xdx = xf(x)

lnx = xf(x) + c

put x=1

0=c

lnx/x= f(x)

where f'(x) = 0 f(x) = 1/x..[fr prev eq]

lnx = 1 or x =e!!!

so maxima = 1/e!!!!!!!

[e+1/e] = 3!!!!!!

The functional equation is xyf(xy) = xf(x) + yf(y)

Let g(x) = xf(x)

Then g(xy) = g(x) + g(y)

This equation is g(x) = c ln x

Then f(x) = c ln x/x

From f'(1)=1, c=1

rest is same as iitimcomin

anyone tried Q1 ?

CALCULAS ALGEBRA ·

no of -1 be p
no of 0 be q
no of 1 be r
no of 2 be s
thus -p+0+r+2s=19................(1)
p+r +4s=99...............(2)
and k= x13+x23+..............xn3=--p+r+8s. ..........(3)
adding (1) and (3) we get k=19+6s now s≥0
thus k≥19
thus m=19
adding (1) and (2) we get
6s=118-2r
now r is an integer and r≠1,0 but r≥2 to be divisible by 6
thus minimum value of r is 2
max value of 6s is 118-4=114
thus max value of k=19+114=133
thus M=133
M/m=133/19=7
