## karnataka 1st PUC Maths Question Bank Chapter 6 Linear Inequalities

Question 1.
Define inequality.
Two real numbers or two algebraic expressions related by the symbol ‘<’, V, ‘<’ or ‘>’ form an inequality.
For example: 3 < 5, 7 > 5 are numerical inequalities x < 5,y > 2, x > 3 are literal inequalities. ax + b < 0, ax + b > 0 are strick inequalities in one variable.
ax + b < 0, ax + b >0 are slack inequalities in one variable.
ax + by < c, ax + by > c are strick inequalities in two variables.
ax + by < c, ax + by > c are slack inequalities in two variables.
ax2 + bx + c < 0, ax2 + bx + c > 0 are quadratic inequalities in one variable.

Question 2.
Define solution set.
The set of all those values of x which satisfy the given inequation is called the solution set of inequation.

Rules for solving inequations:

• Rule 1: Adding the same number or expression to each side of an inequation docs not change the inequality.
• Rule 2: Subtracting the same number or expression from each side of an inequation does not change the inequality.
• Rule 3: Multiplying (or dividing) each side of an inequation by the same positive number does not change the inequality.
• Rule 4: Multiplying (or dividing) each side of an inequation by same negative number reverses the inequality.

Question 24.
The marks obtained by a student of class XI in first and second terminal examination are 62 and 48, respectively. Find the minimum marks he should get in the annual examination to have an average of at least 60 marks.
Let x be the marks obtained by student in the annual examination.
Then
\begin{aligned} &\frac{62+48+x}{3} \geq 60\\ &\Rightarrow 110+x \geq 180\\ &\Rightarrow x \geq 70 \end{aligned}
Thus, the student must obtain a minimum of 70 marks to get an average of at least 60 marks.

Let x be the marks in the fifth test obtained by Sunita
$$\frac{87+92+94+95+x}{5} \geq 90$$

What are the possible lengths of the shortest board if the third piece is to be at least 5 cm longer than the second?
Let x be the length of the shortest board then
x + 3 and 2x are the lengths of the second and third piece, respectively.
⇒ x+(x+3) + 2x≤91 and 2x≥(x + 3) + 5
4x≤88 and x≥8

Question 38.
A solution of 8% boric acid to be diluted by. adding a 2% boric acid solution to it. The resulting mixture is to be more than 4% but less than 6% boric acid. If we have 640 liters of the 8% solution, how many liters of the 2% solution will have to be added?
Let x be the number of liters of 2% boric acid solution.
∴ Total mixture = (640 + x ) liters.
$$\Rightarrow \frac{2 x}{100}+\frac{8}{100}(640)>\frac{4}{100}(640+x)$$
⇒ 2x+ 5120 >2560+ 4x
⇒ 5120-2560 >4x-2x
⇒ 2x< 2560
⇒ x< 1280 ………. (1)
Also, 2% of x+ 8% of 640 < 6% of (640 + x)
$$\Rightarrow \frac{2 x}{100}+\frac{8}{100}(640)<\frac{6}{100}(640+x)$$
⇒ 2x + 5120 < 3840 + 6x
⇒ 5120-3840 <6x-2x
⇒ 1280 < 4x
⇒ 320< x …………….. (2)
From (1) and (2), we get 320 < x< 1280

Question 39.
A manufacturer has 600 liters of 12% solution of acid. How many liters of a 30% acid solution must be added to it so that acid content in the resulting mixture will be more than 15% but less than 18%?
Let x liters of 30% acid solution is required to be added.
Then, total mixture = (x + 600) liters.
∴ 30% of x + 12% of 600 > 15% of (x + 600)
$$\Rightarrow \frac{30 x}{100}+\frac{12}{100}(600)>\frac{15}{100}(x+600)$$
⇒ 30x + 7200 > 15x + 9000
⇒ 15x> 9000 -7200= 1800
⇒ x > 120 …………………… (1)
Also 30% of x + 12% 600 < 18% of (x + 600)
$$\Rightarrow \frac{30 x}{100}+\frac{12}{100}(600)<\frac{18}{100}(x+600)$$
⇒ 30x + 7200 < 18x+ 10800
⇒ 12x < 10800 – 7200 = 3600
⇒ x <300 …………. (2)
From (1) and (2) we get 120 < x < 300
Thus, the number of liters of the 30% solution of acid will have to be more than 120 liters but less than 300 liters.
