determine the maximum value of y=3x\(^2\) + 5x - 3
A
6
B
0
C
2
D
No correct option
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option D
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
y=3x\(^2\) + 5x - 3
dy/dx = 6x + 5
as dy/dx = 0
6x + 5 = 0
x = \(\frac{-5}{6}\)
Maximum value: 3 \( ^2{\frac{-5}{6}}\) + 5 \(\frac{-5}{6}\) - 3
3 \(\frac{75}{36}\) - \(\frac{25}{6}\) - 3
Using the L.C.M. 36
= \(\frac{25 - 50 - 36}{36}\)
= \(\frac{-61}{36}\)
No correct option

Solution
Two numbers are removed at random from the numbers 1, 2, 3 and 4. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers removed is even?
A
\(\frac{2}{3}\)
B
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
C
\(\frac{1}{3}\)
D
\(\frac{1}{4}\)
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option C
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
Numbers: 1 (odd), 2 (even), 3 (odd), 4 (even)
Total ways to remove 2 numbers out of 4 = C(4,2) = 6 possible pairs:
- (1,2) → odd + even = odd
- (1,3) → odd + odd = even
- (1,4) → odd + even = odd
- (2,3) → even + odd = odd
- (2,4) → even + even = even
- (3,4) → odd + even = odd
Favourable outcomes (even sum): (1,3) and (2,4) → 2 ways
Probability = \(\frac{2}{6}\) = \(\frac{1}{3}\)
