Question 18: \displaystyle P is the solution set of \displaystyle 7x-2 > 4x+1 and \displaystyle Q is the solutions et of \displaystyle 9x-45 \leq 5(x-5) ; where \displaystyle x \in R . Represent i) \displaystyle P \cap Q ii) \displaystyle P-Q iii) \displaystyle P \cap Q^{'} on different number lines.

Answer:

\displaystyle P: 7x-2 > 4x+1  

\displaystyle 3x > 3 \text{ or } x > 1  

\displaystyle Q: 9x-45 \geq 5(x-5)  

\displaystyle 9x-45 \geq 5x-25 \text{ or } 4x \geq 20 \text{ or } x \geq 5  

\displaystyle P \cap Q: x \geq 5

Question 22: Solve the following inequation and graph the solution on a number line  2x- 5 \leq 5x+4 < 11 , where x \in I .     [2011]

Answer:

2x-5 \leq 5x+4 < 11 

2x-5 \leq 5x+4 or -9 \leq 3x \text{ or } -3 \leq x

\displaystyle 5x+4 < 11 \text{ or } 5x < 7 \text{ or }  x < \frac{7}{5}

\displaystyle -3 \leq x <\frac{7}{5}

Question 23: Given that x \in I , solve the inequation and graph it on a number line: \displaystyle 3 \geq \frac{x-4}{2}+\frac{x}{3} \geq 2.     [2004]

Answer:

\displaystyle 3 \geq \frac{x-4}{2}+\frac{x}{3} \geq 2

18 \geq 3(x-4)+2x \geq 12 

30 \geq 5x \geq 24 

6 \geq x \geq 4.8 

Therefore x \in \{5, 6 \} 

\\

Answer:

A: 11x-5 > 7x+3 

4x >8 \text{ or }  x >2

B: 18x-9 \geq 15+12x 

6x \geq 24 \text{ or }  x \geq 4

A \cap B = \{ x:  x \geq 4, x \in R \} 

\\

Question 25: Find the set of values of x , satisfying: 7x+3 \geq 3x-5  and \displaystyle \frac{x}{4}-5 \leq \frac{5}{4}-x , where x \in N .

Answer:

7x+3 \geq 3x-5 

4x \geq -8 \text{ or }  x \geq -2

\displaystyle \frac{x}{4}-5 \leq \frac{5}{4}-x \text{ or }  \frac{5}{4} x \leq \frac{25}{4} \text{ or }  x \leq 5

Therefore x \in \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}

Question 26: Solve  i)   \displaystyle \frac{x}{2} +5  \leq \frac{x}{3}+6 , where x is a positive odd integer. ii) \displaystyle \frac{2x+3}{3} \geq \frac{3x-1}{4} , where  x is a positive even integer.

Answer:

i)   \displaystyle \frac{x}{2} +5  \leq \frac{x}{3}+6 

\displaystyle \frac{1}{6} x \leq 1 \text{ or }  x \leq 6

x \in \{1, 3, 5 \} 

ii) \displaystyle \frac{2x+3}{3} \geq \frac{3x-1}{4}

\\

Question 27: Solve the inequation: \displaystyle -2\frac{1}{2}+2x \leq \frac{4x}{5} \leq \frac{4}{3}+2x, x \in W . Graph the solution on a number line.

Answer:

\displaystyle -2\frac{1}{2}+2x \leq \frac{4x}{5} \leq \frac{4}{3}+2x

\displaystyle -\frac{5}{4}+2x \leq \frac{4x}{5} \leq \frac{4}{3}+2x 

\displaystyle -\frac{5}{4}+2x \leq \frac{4x}{5} 

\displaystyle -25+20x \leq 8x \text{ or }  12x \leq 25 \text{ or }  x \leq \frac{25}{12}

\displaystyle \frac{4x}{5} \leq \frac{4}{3}+2x 

\displaystyle -\frac{4}{3} \leq 2x-\frac{4x}{5} \text{ or }  -\frac{4}{3} \leq \frac{6}{5}x \text{ or }  -\frac{20}{18} \leq x

Therefore x \in {0, 1, 2}

Question 28: Find three consecutive largest positive integers such that the sum of one third of the first, one fourth of the second and one fifth of the third is 20.

Answer:

Let the three numbers be x, (x+1) and (x+2) 

Therefore

\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{4}(x+1)+\frac{1}{5}(x+2) \leq 20 

\displaystyle \frac{20+15+12}{60}x+\frac{13}{20} \leq 20 

47x+39 \leq 1200 

x \leq 24.70 

Hence x = 24 . Therefore the numbers are 24, 25, and 26 .

Question 29: Solve the given inequation and graph it on a number line: 2y-3 < y+1 \leq 4y+7, y \in R .     [2008]

Answer:

2y-3 < y+1 \leq 4y+7

2y-3 < y+1 \text{ or }  y < 4

y+1 \leq 4y+7 \text{ or }  -6 \leq 3y \text{ or }  -2 \leq y

Hence \{ x: -2 \leq y < 4, x \in R \} 

\\

Question 30: Solve the inequation: 3z-5 \leq z+3 < 5z-9, z \in R . Graph the solution set on a number line.

Answer:

3z-5 \leq z+3 < 5z-9

3z-5 \leq z+3 \text{ or }  2z \leq 8  or   z \leq 4

z+3 < 5z-9 \text{ or } 12 < 4z \text{ or }  3 < z

Hence \{ z: 3 < z  \leq 4, z \in R \}

Question 31: Solve the given inequation and graph it on a number line: \displaystyle -3 < -\frac{1}{2}-\frac{2x}{3} \leq \frac{5}{6}, x \in R .     [2010]

Answer:

\displaystyle -3 < -\frac{1}{2}-\frac{2x}{3} \leq \frac{5}{6}

\displaystyle -3 < -\frac{1}{2}-\frac{2x}{3} 

-18 < -3 -4x 

\displaystyle 4x < 15 \text{ or }  x < \frac{15}{4}

\displaystyle -\frac{1}{2}-\frac{2x}{3} \leq \frac{5}{6} \text{ or }  -3-4x \leq 5

-8 \leq 4x \text{ or }  -2 \leq x

Therefore \displaystyle \{ x: -2 \leq x < \frac{15}{4}, x \in R \}

Question 32: Solve the given inequation and graph it on a number line: \displaystyle 4x-19 < \frac{3x}{5}-2 \leq -\frac{2}{5}+x, x \in R .     [2012]

Answer:

\displaystyle 4x-19 < \frac{3x}{5}-2 \leq -\frac{2}{5}+x  

\displaystyle 4x-19 < \frac{3x}{5}-2 \text{ or }  20x-95 < 3x-10 \text{ or }  17x < 85 \text{ or }  x < 5

\displaystyle \frac{3x}{5}-2 \leq -\frac{2}{5}+x \text{ or }  3x-10 \leq -2 +5x \text{ or }  -8 \leq 2x \text{ or }  -4 \leq x

Therefore \{x :  -4 \leq x < 5, x \in R \}

Question 33: Solve the given inequation and graph it on a number line: \displaystyle -\frac{x}{3} \leq \frac{x}{2}-1\frac{1}{3} <\frac{1}{6}.x \in R .     [2013]

Answer:

\displaystyle -\frac{x}{3} \leq \frac{x}{2}-1\frac{1}{3} < \frac{1}{6}

\displaystyle -\frac{x}{3} \leq \frac{x}{2}-1\frac{1}{3} < \frac{1}{6} 

\displaystyle -2x \leq 3x-8 < 1 \text{ or } -2x \leq 3x-8 \text{ or }  8 \leq 5x

\displaystyle \frac{8}{5} \leq x \text{ or }  3x-8 < 1 \text{ or }  3x < 9  or   x < 3

Therefore \displaystyle \{ x : \frac{8}{5} \leq x < 3,  x \in R \}

Question 34: Find the value of x which satisfies the inequation: \displaystyle -2\frac{5}{6} < \frac{1}{2} - \frac{2x}{3} \leq 2, x \in W .     [2014]

Answer:

\displaystyle -2\frac{5}{6} < \frac{1}{2} - \frac{2x}{3} \leq 2

\displaystyle -\frac{17}{6} < \frac{1}{2} -\frac{2x}{3} \leq 2 

-17 < 3-4x \leq 12 \text{ or }  -17 < 3-4x \text{ or }  4x < 20 \text{ or }  x < 5

3-4x \leq 12 \text{ or }  -9 \leq 4x \text{ or }  -2.25 \leq x

Therefore \{x : -2.25 \leq x  < 5, x \in W \} 

x \in \{0, 1, 2, 3, 4\}
