Quant by Arun Sharma

yup..F(x)..always remained x all thru out the question..

what if we differentiate this function (dy/dx)..... if we do so we r getting x=1 and x=-1.....and then if we find d2y/dx2 then we can see that for x=1 we r getting the maximum value (i.e d2y/dx2

dude its x^2

You actually differentiated it with that long formula of differentiation of f(u)/f(v)..and then got the answer..??

If f(x) is a function satisfying f(x) . f(1/x) = f(x) + f(1/x)
and f(4)=65, what will be the value of f(6)?

a) 37
b) 217
c) 64
d) none of these

How to solve this??
At what integral value of x will the function (x2 + 3x + 1)/(x2 - 3x + 1) attain its maximum value??

a) 3
b) 4
c) -3
d) none of this
For this type of questions, First divide the expression

it wil be

f(x) = 1 + 6x/(x^2 -3x +1)

Now, differentiate and equate to zero

f'(x) = 0

x(2x-3) = x^2 -3x + 1

=> x^2 = 1
so x = +/-1

Its none of these as per conventional method, but from the options we can choose option 1.
If f(x) is a function satisfying f(x) . f(1/x) = f(x) + f(1/x)
and f(4)=65, what will be the value of f(6)?

a) 37
b) 217
c) 64
d) none of these

How to solve this??


Note that f(x).f(1/x) = f(x) + f(1/x) satisfies for x^n + 1 , where n is an integer.

here, f(4) = 65 = 4^3 + 1

so, f(6) = 6^3 + 1 = 217
If f(x) is a function satisfying f(x) . f(1/x) = f(x) + f(1/x)
and f(4)=65, what will be the value of f(6)?

a) 37
b) 217
c) 64
d) none of these

How to solve this??



lets see this....this function is satisfied by x^n+1....
and we have f(4)=65 which is clearly 4^3+1
now for f(6)..applying the same rule the answer i hope is 217..

how did u derive x^n + 1 ??

bilas Says
how did u derive x^n + 1 ??

how did u derive x^n + 1 ??
bilas Says
how did u derive x^n + 1 ??



I dont know y m i posting this..but i got into one more method(you can call it a fluke although)....put f(4)=65 in the given equation and find out f(1/4)..
that is 65/64....that makes it as f(1/4)=65/64.....that is x^3+1/x^3..
now it will be 217/216 for f(1/6)....keep this value in the equation to get f(6) as 217..
altenatively u can directly get the value of f(1/X)...by manipulation in the given equation and then directly proceed and get the answer..

again call it a fluke or backtracking..

Number systems LOD 3 Q-45
there are 25 catalyst tests. each with a DI section having 50 questions out of which 35 questions are exactly unique. find the maximum number of questions prepared.

i solved it like
35*25 = 875
15*12=180 (12 assuming the other 15 Q repeat in another test so 24 and the last test will have repeated questions from this 180)
--------
1055
but the answer is 15 more 1070 can anybody help me out

There will be 50 questions in all

35*25 = 875 unique questions.

875 + 15 = 890 is the minimum number of questions.

875 + 12*15 = 1055 is the maximum number of questions.


we can't repeat 13 sets in next 12 sets, but we can repeat 12 sets in next 13 sets, so it should be 12*15

ya even i put it in the same way but the naswer mentioned is 1070 that is why i had a doubt

1)The sum of the series represented as
1/(1*5) + 1/(5*9) + 1/(9*13) + 1/(221*225) is

a) 28/221 b)56/221 c) 56/225 d) none of these

Ans: The above series can be written as:
(1-1/5)+(1/5-1/9)+(1/9-1/13)+.... divided by 4
= 1-1/225 /4
=224/4*225=56/225 .Hence Option C.

a)10 b)11 c) 12 d) none of these

Ans: Above 1/(sqrt(2) + sqrt(1)) can be written as sqrt(2) - sqrt(1)
ence the above series becomes
(sqrt(2) - sqrt(1))+(sqrt(3) - sqrt(2))+.....(sqrt(121) - sqrt(120))
=sqrt(121)-sqrt(1)
=11-1=10
Hence Option A
