51) 5log x.log x + xlog x = 1250

5 5 5

⇒ (5log x)log x + xlog x = 1250

5 5 5
⇒ xlog x + xlog x = 1250 ⇒ 2.xlog x = 1250
5 5 5

⇒ xlog x = 625 ⇒ log5x(log x) = log5625

5 5

⇒ (log5x)(log5x) = 4 ⇒ (log5x)2 = 4

⇒ log5x = 2 or log5x = –2 ⇒ x = 25 or

So,

52) 497A is divisible by 3

∴ 20 + A is divisible by 3
⇒ A = 1, 4, 7
562B is divisible by 4,
∵ B = 0, 4, 8
Number of possible pairs (A, B) is 9

53) If x > 1
logx4 > logx2

⇒ ⇒ log2x > log4x

g(x) > ƒ(x)
If 0 < x < 1
logx4 < logx2

log2x < log4x

g(x) < ƒ(x)
Hence Statement-1 & Statement-II is true & Statement-2 explains Statement-1.

54) S = 12 – 22 + 32 – 42 + ................– 20022 + 20032 = n2 – 2 [22 + 42 + ............+ 20022]

= n2 – 2 × 4

= –

= [4007 – 4004] = 2007006

log3 + log3 + .......+log3 = log3

= log3 = 4.

General term =

58) α, β, γ are roots of x3 + 4x + 1 = 0

⇒ α + β + γ = 0, αβ + βγ + γα = 4 & αβγ = –1

Now

59) (A) 3Iog 5 – 5log 3

Ans. = 0

(B)

3t2 + 3 = 10t
3t2 – 10t + 3 = 0
3t2 – 9t – t + 3 = 0
3t(t – 3) – t(t – 3) = 0

t = 3 or

log2x = 3 or
x = 8 & x = 21/3
 ∴

(C)
(D) 1 – log8x2 = 3(log8x)2
3(log8x)2 + 2log8x – 1 = 0
3t2 + 3t – t – 1 = 0
3t(t + 1) – 1(t + 1) = 0

or x = –1

log8x = –1

x=2

Product =

60) ⇒ (2y – 1)x2 – (3y – 3)x + (2y – 1) = 0

Case-I : 2y –1 ≠ 0 ⇒ y ≠
for x ∈ R, (3y – 3)2 – 4(2y – 1)2 ≥ 0 ⇒ (3y – 3 – 2(2y – 1))(3y – 3 + 2(2y – 1)) ≥ 0
or (–1 – y)(7y – 5) ≥ 0

∴ –1 ≤ y ≤

Case-II : 2y – 1 = 0 ⇒ y=

Hence set of possible values of y will be

61) Given that (a + 3d) + (a + 6d) + (a + 9d) = 15

⇒ 3a + 18d = 15 ⇒ a + 6d = 5

⇒ Sum of thirteen terms = [2a + 12d] = 65

62) If one root is 2i then other root is –2i

∴ sum of the roots = 0
⇒ – B/A = 0 ⇒ B = 0
∴ B3 (A3 – C3) = 0.

63) a = 2, h = 2, b = –k, g = 2, f = 1, c = –1
abc + 2fgh – af2 – bg2 – ch2 = 0
2k + 8 – 2 + 4k + 4 = 0
6k = –10 ∴

64)

Now ⇒p=9 & ⇒ q = 29

65) Statement-1 : True;

Statement-2 : Let a, ar, ar2 are in G.P., then
⇒ a + ar, 2ar, ar + ar2 are in H.P.

Hence true.

66) Clearly p < 0, r > 0,

q2 – 4pr > 0

∴ q > 0.

67)

68) α2 – 2α + 3 = 0 & β2 – 2β + 3 = 0
α3 – 3α2 + 5α = α(α2 – 2α + 3) – (α2 – 2α + 3) + 3
∴

∴ = 81 + 16 + 3 = 100

69) a + b = & ⇒
But a1, b1, c1 are in A.P.
⇒ (1 + α)(1 + β) =

Similarly (1 + β)(1 + γ) = &

70)
D must be perfect square
⇒ a2 – 4a – 4 = λ2 where λ ∈ z (let)
⇒ (a – 2)2 – λ2 = 8 ⇒ (a – 2 + λ)(a – 2 – λ) = 8
⇒ a – 2 + λ = 4 and a – 2 – λ = 2
or a – 2 + λ = 2 & a–2–λ=4
or a – 2 + λ = –4 & a – 2 – λ = –2
or a – 2 + λ = –2 and a – 2 – λ = –4
⇒ (a, λ) ≡ (5, 1), (5, –1), (–1, –1), (–1, 1)
so values of a are 5 and –1

71) We have, x2 – 2x = 2x2 + 2x + 3 ⇒ x2 + 4x + 3 = 0 ⇒ (x + 1)(x + 3) = 0

∴ x = – 1, – 3.
Rejected x = – 3. So, x = – 1

72) a1 + a2 + .......+ a40 = 120

⇒ = 120 ⇒ a1 + a40 = 6
⇒ a1 + a40 = a3 + a38 = a9 + a32 = a15 + a26 = a16 + a25 = 6
(sum of equidistant terms remains constant)

73) (α + 1)(β + 1)(γ + 1) + 8

= 1 + (α + β + γ) + (αβ + βγ + γα) + αβγ + 8

74) ƒ (1) > 0 ƒ (3) > 0

2–8+k>0
18 – 24 + k > 0

k>6

64 – 8k > 0
64 > 8k
k<8
∴k=7

75) We have S3n = sum of the next n terms = S4n – S3n

i.e., 2S3n = S4n

⇒
⇒ 6a + (9n – 3)d = 4a + (8n –2)d
⇒ 2a = (1 – n)d ........ (i)
Now, we have

{from (i)}

and sum of next 2n terms = S4n – S2n =

= n[2a + (6n – 1) d] = n[(1 – n) d + (6n – 1)d] = 5n2d

Hence required ratio =
