The curve y(x) = ax3 + bx2 + cx + 5 touches the x-axis at the point P(–2, 0) and cuts the y-axis at the point Q, where y′ is equal to 3. Then the local maximum value of y(x) is
Let the locus of the centre (α, β), β> 0, of the circle which touches the circle x2 +(y – 1)2 = 1 externally and also touches the x-axis be L. Then the area bounded by L and the line y = 4 is :
If the sum and the product of mean and variance of a binomial distribution are 24 and 128 respectively, then the probability of one or two successes is :
If the numbers appeared on the two throws of a fair six faced die are α and β, then the probability that x2 + αx + β> 0, for all x ∈ R, is :
The number of solutions of |cos x| = sinx, such that –4π ≤ x ≤ 4π is :
A tower PQ stands on a horizontal ground with base Q on the ground. The point R divides the tower in two parts such that QR = 15 m. If from a point A on the ground the angle of elevation of R is 60° and the part PR of the tower subtends an angle of 15° at A, then the height of the tower is :
