14. A manufacturer produces nuts and bolts. It takes 1 hour of work on machine A and 3 hours on machine B to produce a package of nuts. It takes 3 hours on machine A and 1 hour on machine B to produce a package of bolts. He earns a profit of ?. 17.50 per package on nuts and ?. 7.00 per package on bolts. How many packages of each should be produced each day so as to maximize his profit, if he operates his machines for at the most 12 hours a day?

Let the manufacturer produce x packages of nuts and y packages of bolts. Therefore,

x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0

The given information can be compiled in a table as follows.

	Nuts	Bolts	Availability
Machine A (h)	1	3	12
Machine B (h)	3	1	12

The profit on a package of nuts is Rs 17.50 and on a package of bolts is Rs 7. Therefore, the constraints are

$\begin{array}{l} x + 3 y \leq 12 \dots (2) \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{l} 3 x + y \leq 12 \dots (3 \end{array}$

Total profit, $Z = 17.5 x + 7 y$

The mathematical formulation of the given problem is

Maximise $Z = 17.5 x + 7 y \dots (1)$

subject to the constraints,

$\begin{array}{l} x + 3 y \leq 12 \dots (2) \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{l} 3 x + y \leq 12 \dots (3) \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{l} x, y \geq 0 \dots (4) \end{array}$

The feasible region determined by the system of constraints is as follows.

The corner points are A (4, 0), B (3, 3), and C (0, 4).

The values of Z at these corner points are as follows.

The maximum value of Z is ? 73.50 at (3,

Thus, 3 packages of nuts and 3 packages of bolts should be produced each day to get the maximum profit of ? 73.50.

The system of linear equations

3x -2y -kz = 10

2x -4y -2z = 6

x + 2y -z = 5m

is inconsistent if

$Δ - | \begin{matrix} 3 & - 2 & - k \\ 2 & - 4 & - 2 \\ 1 & 2 & - 1 \end{matrix} | = | \begin{matrix} 3 & - 2 & - k \\ 0 & - 8 & 0 \\ 1 & 2 & - 1 \end{matrix} |, [R_{2} - R_{1} - 2 R_{3}]$

= -8 (-3 + k)

For inconsistent $Δ = 0 \Rightarrow k = 3$

$Δ_{x} = | \begin{matrix} 10 & - 2 & - k \\ 6 & - 4 & - 2 \\ 5 m & 2 & - 1 \end{matrix} | = 32 - 40 m \neq 0 \Rightarrow m \neq \frac{4}{5}$

If [x] denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to x, then the value of the integral $\int_{- π / 2}^{π / 2} [[x] - s i n x] d x$ is equal to:

Vishal Baghel

$l = \int_{- \frac{π}{2}}^{\frac{π}{2}} ([x] + [- s i n x]) d x$ . (i)

$I = \int_{- \frac{π}{2}}^{\frac{π}{2}} ([- x] + [s i n x]) d x$ . (ii)

by using property $(\int_{a}^{b} f (x) d x = \int_{a}^{b} f (a + b - x) d x)$

Adding (i) and (ii) we get 2l = $\int_{- \frac{π}{2}}^{\frac{π}{2}} (- 2) d x = - 2 π \Rightarrow l = - π$

Let $J_{n, m} = \int_{0}^{\frac{1}{2}} \frac{x^{n}}{x^{m} - 1} d x, \forall n > m$ and n, $m \in N$ . Consider a matrix $A = {[a_{i j}]}_{3 \times 3}$ where $a_{i j} = {\begin{matrix} J_{6 + i, 3} -_{i + 3, 3}, & i \leq j \\ 0, & i > j \end{matrix} . T h e n | a d j A^{- 1} | i s :$

alok kumar singh

$l_{n, m} = \int_{0}^{\frac{1}{2}} \frac{x^{n}}{x^{m} - 1} d x, m, n \in N, n > m$

$l_{6 + i, 3} - l_{3 + i, 3}$

$A = \frac{1}{2^{5}} [\begin{matrix} \frac{1}{5} & \frac{1}{5} & \frac{1}{5} \\ 0 & \frac{1}{12} & \frac{1}{12} \\ 0 & 0 & \frac{1}{28} \end{matrix}]$ $= \frac{B}{32}$

$| A | = {(\frac{1}{32})}^{3} | B | = \frac{1}{105 . 2^{19}}$

If α + β + = 2π, then the system of equations

$x + (c o s γ) y + (c o s β) z = 0$

$(c o s γ) x + y + (c o s α) z = 0$

$(c o s β) x + (c o s α) y + z = 0$

has :

Vishal Baghel

$α + β + γ = 2 π$

$Δ = | \begin{matrix} 1 & c o s γ & c o s β \\ c o s γ & 1 & c o s α \\ c o s β & c o s α & 1 \end{matrix} |$

$= 1 - c o s^{2} α - c o s^{2} β - c o s^{2} γ + 2 c o s α . c o s β . c o s γ$

$= - c o s γ c o s (α - β) + c o s γ c o s (α - β) = 0$

If the system of linear equations

2x + y – z = 3

x – y – z = a

3x + 3y + bz = 3

has infinitely many solution, then α + β - αβ is equal to__________

Vishal Baghel

Given 2x + y – z = 3 . (i)

x – y – z = α . (ii)

3x + 3y + βz = 3 . (iii)

(i) x 2 – (ii) – (iii) – (1 + β) z = 3 - α

For infinite solution 1 + β = 0 = 3 - α

=> α = 3, β = -1

So, α + β - αβ = 5
