Putting, x = tan(z),
We get, dz = sec2(z)dz,
x∫ zsec2 (z)dz
By integration by parts,
x ∫ zsec2 (z)dz=x[ztan(z)-log(sec(z) )]= x[ytan(-1) (y)- 1⁄2 ln(1+y2 )].

d) (–x3 Cos(x) + 6xCos(x) – 6Sin(x))(-y3 Cos(y))
Answer
Answer: c [Reason:] Add constant automatically
∫x3 Sin(x)dx = -x3 Cos(x) + 3∫x2 Cos(x)dx
∫x2 Cos(x)dx = x2 Sin(x) – 2∫xSin(x)dx
∫xSin(x)dx = -xCos(x) + ∫Cos(x)dx = -xCos(x) + Sin(x)
=> ∫x3 Sin(x)dx = -x3 Cos(x) + 3[x2 Sin(x) – 2[-xCos(x) + Sin(x)]]
=> ∫x3 Sin(x)dx = -x3 Cos(x) + 3x2 Sin(x) + 6xCos(x) – 6Sin(x)
and,∫y3 Sin(y)dy = -y3 Cos(x) + 3∫y2 Cos(y)dy
∫y2 Cos(y)dy = y2 Sin(y) – 2∫ySin(y)dy
∫ySin(y)dy = -yCos(y) + ∫Cos(y)dy = -yCos(y) + Sin(y)
=> ∫y3 Sin(y)dy = -y3 Cos(y) + 3[y2 Sin(y) – 2[-yCos(y) + Sin(y)]]
=> ∫y3 Sin(y)dy = -y3 Cos(y) + 3y2 Sin(y) + 6yCos(y) – 6Sin(y)
Hence,∫∫x3 y3 sin(x) sin(y) dxdy = (∫x3 Sin(x)dx)(∫y3 Sin(y)dy) = (-x3 Cos(x) + 3x2 Sin(x)+6xCos(x) – 6Sin(x))(-y3 Cos(y) + 3y2 Sin(y) + 6yCos(y) – 6Sin(y)).

c) (y7 Sin(y) + 42y5 Sin(y) + 210y4 Cos(y) + 840y3 Sin(y) + 2520y2 Cos(y) + 5040ySin(y) + 5040Cos(y))(x7 Sin(x) + 7x6 Cos(x) + 42x5 Sin(x) + 210x4 Cos(x) + 840x3 Sin(x) + 2520x2 Cos(x) + 5040xSin(x) + 5040Cos(x))
d) (y7 Sin(y) + 7y6 Cos(y) + 42y5 Sin(y) + 210y4 Cos(y) + 840y3 Sin(y) + 2520y2 Cos(y) + 5040ySin(y) + 5040Cos(y))(x7 Sin(x) + 7x6 Cos(x) + 42x5 Sin(x) + 210x4 Cos(x) + 840x3 Sin(x) + 2520x2 Cos(x) + 5040xSin(x) + 5040Cos(x))
Answer
Answer: d [Reason:] Add constant automatically
Let, u = x7 and v=Cos(x),
∫x7 Cos(x) dx=x7 Sin(x)+7x6 Cos(x)+42x5 Sin(x)+210x4 Cos(x)+840x3 Sin(x)+2520x2 Cos(x)+5040xSin(x)+5040Cos(x)
Similarly,
∫y7 Cos(y) dy=y7 Sin(y)+7y6 Cos(y)+42y5 Sin(y)+210y4 Cos(y)+840y3 Sin(y)+2520y2 Cos(y)+5040ySin(y)+5040Cos(y)
Now,
∫∫xy7 Cos(x)Cos(y) dxdy=∫y7 Cos(y) dy∫x7 Cos(x) dx=(y7 Sin(y)+7y6 Cos(y)+42y5 Sin(y)+210y4 Cos(y)+840y3 Sin(y)+2520y2 Cos(y)+5040ySin(y)+5040Cos(y))(x7 Sin(x)+7x6 Cos(x)+42x5 Sin(x)+210x4 Cos(x)+840x3 Sin(x)+2520x2 Cos(x)+5040xSin(x)+5040Cos(x)).

c) a2⁄2 + 4ln(a) – 11⁄2
d) a2⁄2 + 5a – 11⁄2
Answer
Answer: b [Reason:] Add constant automatically
Given,
f(x) = (2x3 + 5 x2 – 4)⁄x2 ,
Integrating it we get, F(x) = x2⁄2 + 5x – 4ln(x)
Hence, area under, x = 1 to a, is
F(a) – F(1) = a2⁄2 + 5a – 4ln(a) – 1⁄2 – 5 = a2⁄2 + 5a – 4ln(a) – 11⁄2.

a) (0,0)
b) (0,-90)
c) (90, 0)
d) None exist
Answer
Answer: d [Reason:]Find fx = 10

a) (0,0)
b) There are infinite such points
c) Only positive (x, y) are critical points
d) (90,-90)
Answer
Answer: b [Reason:] The function takes constant values along a circle(observe the function)
But it is composed of arc sine function. Hence, we will have critical points at equal intervals
Hence, there are infinite such points.
3. Consider the circular region x2 + y2 = 81, What is the maximum value of the function

a) 90
b) cos(1)
c) sin(1).cos(1)
d) sin(3).cos(3)
Answer
Answer: d [Reason:]Rewrite the function as
f(x, y) = cos(x + 2y) * (sin(x).cos(2y) + cos(x).sin(2y))
f(x, y) = cos(x + 2y).sin(x + 2y)
Put x+2y = 3
= sin(3).cos(3).

x=0; y=0; 2x + y = 2
a) 1
b) 0
c) 100
d) 10
Answer
Answer: d [Reason:] Differentiating we have
fx = 3y + 8xy2 = 0
fy = 3x + 8x2y
x = 0
y = 0
(0,0) lies in the region
Substitute x=0
f(0, y) = 0
Substitute y=0
f(x, 0) = 0
Substitute y = 2 – 2x
is the maximum value
Discrete Mathematics MCQ Set 3
1. f(x, y) = x3 + xy2 + 901 satisfies the Eulers theorem

a) e – 1 + 2n
b) 0
c) 1
d) None
Answer

(y2)(6) = 2 y(6) y + 12 y(6) y(1) + 30 y(4) y(2) + 20 (y(3))2
(sin(x))(6) = -sin(x)
Now substituting x = 0 and observing that y(0)= 0 we have

c) 1729
d) ∞
Answer
Answer: a [Reason:] Expanding cosh(x) into a Taylor series we have
Observe again, that the derivative in question is odd, and hence, only the odd powered terms contribute to the derivative at x = 0
Also note that, there are no odd powered terms and hence we can conclude that
The (1071729)th derivative must be 0.
9. The (17291728)th derivative of f(x) = (x2 + 1)tan-1 (x) at x = 0 is
