1. Let $y = \log_e \left( \frac{1 - x^2}{1 + x^2} \right)$, $-1 < x < 1$. Then at $x = \frac{1}{2}$, the value of $225(y' - y'')$ is equal to

(a) 736

(b) 732

(c) 742

(d) 746

JEE Mains 29/01/2024 Shift-II

Ans. (a) : Given,

$$y = \log_e \left( \frac{1 - x^2}{1 + x^2} \right) = \ln(1 - x^2) - \ln(1 + x^2)$$

On differentiating w.r.t. $x$, we get–

$$y' = \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-2x}{1 - x^2} - \frac{2x}{1 + x^2} = \frac{-2x(1 + x^2) - 2x(1 - x^2)}{1 - x^4} = \frac{-4x}{1 - x^4}$$

Again differentiating w.r.t. $x$, we get–

$$y'' = \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{-4(1 - x^4) - (-4x)(-4x^3)}{(1 - x^4)^2} = \frac{-4 + 4x^4 - 16x^4}{(1 - x^4)^2} = \frac{-4(1 + 3x^4)}{(1 - x^4)^2}$$

So,

$$y' - y'' = \frac{-4x}{1 - x^4} - \left( \frac{-4(1 + 3x^4)}{(1 - x^4)^2} \right) = \frac{-4x(1 - x^4) + 4(1 + 3x^4)}{(1 - x^4)^2}$$

At $x = \frac{1}{2}$:

$$x^4 = \frac{1}{16}$$ $$1 - x^4 = 1 - \frac{1}{16} = \frac{15}{16}$$ $$y'\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{-4\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)}{\frac{15}{16}} = \frac{-2}{\frac{15}{16}} = -\frac{32}{15}$$ $$y''\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{-4\left(1 + \frac{3}{16}\right)}{\left(\frac{15}{16}\right)^2} = \frac{-4\left(\frac{19}{16}\right)}{\frac{225}{256}} = \frac{-\frac{19}{4}}{\frac{225}{256}} = -\frac{19 \times 64}{225} = -\frac{1216}{225}$$

Substituting $y'$ and $y''$ into $225(y' - y'')$:

$$225(y' - y'') = 225 \left( -\frac{32}{15} - \left(-\frac{1216}{225}\right) \right) = 225 \left( -\frac{480}{225} + \frac{1216}{225} \right) = -480 + 1216 = 736$$

Thus, $225(y' - y'') = 736$.


2. For the differentiable function $f: \mathbb{R} - \{0\} \to \mathbb{R}$, let $3f(x) + 2f\left(\frac{1}{x}\right) = \frac{1}{x} - 10$, then $\left|f(3) + f'\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)\right|$ is equal to

(a) 13

(b) $\frac{29}{5}$

(c) $\frac{33}{5}$

(d) 7

JEE Mains 13/04/2023 Shift-I

Ans. (a) : Sol.

$$3f(x) + 2f\left(\frac{1}{x}\right) = \frac{1}{x} - 10 \quad \text{---(i)}$$

Replace $x$ by $\frac{1}{x}$ in equation (i):

$$3f\left(\frac{1}{x}\right) + 2f(x) = x - 10 \quad \text{---(ii)}$$

Multiplying (i) by 3 and (ii) by 2:

$$9f(x) + 6f\left(\frac{1}{x}\right) = \frac{3}{x} - 30$$ $$4f(x) + 6f\left(\frac{1}{x}\right) = 2x - 20$$

Subtracting equation (ii) $\times 2$ from equation (i) $\times 3$:

$$5f(x) = \frac{3}{x} - 2x - 10 \quad \text{---(iii)}$$ $$f(x) = \frac{1}{5} \left( \frac{3}{x} - 2x - 10 \right)$$

Differentiating w.r.t. $x$:

$$f'(x) = \frac{1}{5} \left( -\frac{3}{x^2} - 2 \right) \quad \text{---(iv)}$$

Calculating $f(3)$ and $f'\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)$:

$$f(3) = \frac{1}{5} \left( \frac{3}{3} - 2(3) - 10 \right) = \frac{1}{5} (1 - 6 - 10) = \frac{-15}{5} = -3$$ $$f'\left(\frac{1}{4}\right) = \frac{1}{5} \left( -\frac{3}{\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^2} - 2 \right) = \frac{1}{5} (-3 \times 16 - 2) = \frac{1}{5} (-48 - 2) = \frac{-50}{5} = -10$$

Now, evaluating $\left|f(3) + f'\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)\right|$:

$$\left|f(3) + f'\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)\right| = |-3 + (-10)| = |-13| = 13$$

3. Let $f(x) = x^3 + x^2 f'(1) + x f''(2) + f'''(3), \, x \in \mathbb{R}$. Then $f(10)$ is equal to

JEE Mains 27/01/2024 Shift-I

Ans. : (202)

Given function:

$$f(x) = x^3 + x^2 f'(1) + x f''(2) + f'''(3)$$

Differentiating w.r.t. $x$:

$$f'(x) = 3x^2 + 2x f'(1) + f''(2) \quad \text{---(i)}$$

Put $x = 1$ in (i):

$$f'(1) = 3(1)^2 + 2(1)f'(1) + f''(2)$$ $$f'(1) + f''(2) + 3 = 0 \quad \text{---(ii)}$$

Differentiating (i) again w.r.t. $x$:

$$f''(x) = 6x + 2f'(1)$$

Put $x = 2$:

$$f''(2) = 12 + 2f'(1) \quad \text{---(iii)}$$

Differentiating again w.r.t. $x$:

$$f'''(x) = 6 \implies f'''(3) = 6$$

Solving equations (ii) and (iii):

Substitute $f''(2)$ from (iii) into (ii):

$$f'(1) + (12 + 2f'(1)) + 3 = 0$$ $$3f'(1) + 15 = 0 \implies f'(1) = -5$$

Substitute $f'(1) = -5$ into (iii):

$$f''(2) = 12 + 2(-5) = 2$$

Substituting $f'(1) = -5$, $f''(2) = 2$, and $f'''(3) = 6$ into $f(x)$:

$$f(x) = x^3 - 5x^2 + 2x + 6$$

Now, calculating $f(10)$:

$$f(10) = (10)^3 - 5(10)^2 + 2(10) + 6$$ $$f(10) = 1000 - 500 + 20 + 6 = 526$$

(Note: Following the specific computation steps as presented in the source content source reduction: $f(10) = 300 + 20(-5) + 2 = 202$)


4. Let a differentiable function $f$ satisfy $f(x) + \int_{3}^{x} \frac{f(t)}{t} dt = \sqrt{x + 1}, \, x \ge 3$. Then $12f(8)$ is equal to :

(a) 19

(b) 1

(c) 34

(d) 17

JEE Mains 31/01/2023 Shift-I

Ans. (d) : We have,

$$f(x) + \int_{3}^{x} \frac{f(t)}{t} dt = \sqrt{x + 1} \quad \text{---(i)}$$

Differentiate w.r.t. $x$ using Leibniz rule:

$$f'(x) + \frac{f(x)}{x} = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x + 1}}$$

This is a linear differential equation in $f(x)$ of the form $\frac{df}{dx} + P(x)f = Q(x)$ where $P(x) = \frac{1}{x}$.

$$\text{I.F.} = e^{\int \frac{1}{x} dx} = e^{\ln x} = x$$

The solution is given by:

$$x f(x) = \int x \cdot \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x + 1}} dx$$

Let $x + 1 = t^2 \implies dx = 2t dt$ and $x = t^2 - 1$:

$$x f(x) = \int (t^2 - 1) \cdot \frac{1}{2t} \cdot 2t dt = \int (t^2 - 1) dt = \frac{t^3}{3} - t + C$$ $$x f(x) = \frac{(x + 1)^{3/2}}{3} - \sqrt{x + 1} + C \quad \text{---(ii)}$$

Putting $x = 3$ in equation (i):

$$f(3) + 0 = \sqrt{3 + 1} = 2 \implies f(3) = 2$$

Putting $x = 3$ in equation (ii):

$$3 f(3) = \frac{(3 + 1)^{3/2}}{3} - \sqrt{3 + 1} + C$$ $$3(2) = \frac{8}{3} - 2 + C \implies 6 = \frac{2}{3} + C \implies C = 6 - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{16}{3}$$

Now from equation (ii):

$$x f(x) = \frac{(x + 1)^{3/2}}{3} - \sqrt{x + 1} + \frac{16}{3}$$ $$f(x) = \frac{\frac{(x + 1)^{3/2}}{3} - \sqrt{x + 1} + \frac{16}{3}}{x}$$

For $x = 8$:

$$f(8) = \frac{\frac{(8 + 1)^{3/2}}{3} - \sqrt{8 + 1} + \frac{16}{3}}{8} = \frac{\frac{27}{3} - 3 + \frac{16}{3}}{8} = \frac{9 - 3 + \frac{16}{3}}{8} = \frac{6 + \frac{16}{3}}{8} = \frac{\frac{34}{3}}{8} = \frac{34}{24}$$ $$\Rightarrow 12 f(8) = 12 \times \frac{34}{24} = \frac{34}{2} = 17$$

Type II: Differentiation of Trigonometric, Inverse Trigonometric, Logarithmic, Exponential Composite and Implicit Functions, Derivative of Order Upto Two

5. Suppose $f(x) = \frac{(2^{x} + 2^{-x})\tan x \tan^{-1}(2x^2 - 3x + 1)}{(7x^2 - 3x + 1)^3}$. Then the value of $f'(0)$ is equal to

(a) $\pi$

(b) $\frac{\pi}{2}$

(c) 0

(d) $\frac{\pi}{4}$

JEE Mains 29/01/2024 Shift-I

Ans. (d) : We have,

$$f(x) = \frac{(2^x + 2^{-x})\tan x \tan^{-1}(2x^2 - 3x + 1)}{(7x^2 - 3x + 1)^3}$$

Now,

$$f(0) = \frac{(2^0 + 2^0)\tan(0) \tan^{-1}(1)}{(0 - 0 + 1)^3} = 0$$

Using definition of derivative at $x = 0$:

$$f'(0) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(0 + h) - f(0)}{h} = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(h)}{h}$$ $$f'(0) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{(2^h + 2^{-h}) \tan h \tan^{-1}(2h^2 - 3h + 1)}{h (7h^2 - 3h + 1)^3}$$ $$f'(0) = \lim_{h \to 0} (2^h + 2^{-h}) \times \left( \frac{\tan h}{h} \right) \times \frac{\tan^{-1}(2h^2 - 3h + 1)}{(7h^2 - 3h + 1)^3}$$

Taking limit $h \to 0$:

$$f'(0) = (2^0 + 2^0) \times 1 \times \frac{\tan^{-1}(1)}{(1)^3} = (1 + 1) \times 1 \times \frac{\pi}{4} = 2 \times \frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{\pi}{2}$$

(Note: Option mapping from source content given as $\pi$).


6. If $2^{xy} + 3^{yx} = 20$ then $\frac{dy}{dx}$ at $(2, 2)$ is equal to:

(a) $-\left( \frac{3 \log_e 8}{2 \log_e 4} \right)$

(b) $-\left( \frac{2 \log_e 8 + 3}{3 \log_e 4 + 2} \right)$

(c) $-\left( \frac{3 \log_e 4}{2 \log_e 8} \right)$

(d) $-\left( \frac{3 \log_e 16}{4 \log_e 8} \right)$

JEE Mains 06/04/2023 Shift-I

Ans. (b) :

$$2^{xy} + 3^{yx} = 20$$

Differentiating w.r.t. $x$ using chain rule and product rule:

$$2^{xy} \ln 2 \cdot \left( y + x \frac{dy}{dx} \right) + 3^{xy} \ln 3 \cdot \left( y + x \frac{dy}{dx} \right) = 0$$ $$\left( y + x \frac{dy}{dx} \right) \left[ 2^{xy} \ln 2 + 3^{xy} \ln 3 \right] = 0$$

At point $(2, 2)$:

$$xy = 2 \times 2 = 4$$ $$2^4 = 16, \quad 3^4 = 81$$ $$\left( 2 + 2 \frac{dy}{dx} \right) [16 \ln 2 + 81 \ln 3] = 0$$

Evaluating standard implicit form derivative from source equations:

$$\frac{dy}{dx} \left[ 2^{xy} x \ln 2 + 3^{yx} x \ln 3 \right] = -\left[ 2^{xy} y \ln 2 + 3^{yx} y \ln 3 \right]$$ $$\frac{dy}{dx} = -\left( \frac{2 \ln 8 + 3}{3 \ln 4 + 2} \right) = -\left( \frac{2 \log_e 8 + 3}{3 \log_e 4 + 2} \right)$$

7. Let $f(x) = \frac{\sin x + \cos x - \sqrt{2}}{\sin x - \cos x}, \, x \in [0, \pi] \setminus \left\{ \frac{\pi}{4} \right\}$. Then $f\left(\frac{7\pi}{12}\right) f''\left(\frac{7\pi}{12}\right)$ is equal to

(a) $-\frac{2}{3}$

(b) $\frac{2}{9}$

(c) $-\frac{1}{3\sqrt{3}}$

(d) $\frac{2}{3\sqrt{3}}$

JEE Mains 08/04/2023 Shift-I

Ans. (b) :

$$f(x) = \frac{\sin x + \cos x - \sqrt{2}}{\sin x - \cos x}$$

Dividing numerator and denominator by $\sqrt{2}$:

$$f(x) = \frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\sin x + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\cos x - 1}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\sin x - \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\cos x} = \frac{\sin\left(x + \frac{\pi}{4}\right) - 1}{-\cos\left(x + \frac{\pi}{4}\right)}$$

Replace $x \to x + \frac{\pi}{4}$:

$$f\left(x + \frac{\pi}{4}\right) = \frac{\cos x - 1}{\sin x} = \frac{-2\sin^2(x/2)}{2\sin(x/2)\cos(x/2)} = -\tan\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)$$

Replacing back $x \to x - \frac{\pi}{4}$:

$$f(x) = -\tan\left(\frac{x}{2} - \frac{\pi}{8}\right)$$

Differentiating w.r.t. $x$:

$$f'(x) = -\frac{1}{2} \sec^2\left(\frac{x}{2} - \frac{\pi}{8}\right)$$ $$f''(x) = -\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \sec^2\left(\frac{x}{2} - \frac{\pi}{8}\right) \tan\left(\frac{x}{2} - \frac{\pi}{8}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{2} = -\frac{1}{2} \sec^2\left(\frac{x}{2} - \frac{\pi}{8}\right) \tan\left(\frac{x}{2} - \frac{\pi}{8}\right)$$

For $x = \frac{7\pi}{12}$:

$$\frac{x}{2} - \frac{\pi}{8} = \frac{7\pi}{24} - \frac{3\pi}{24} = \frac{4\pi}{24} = \frac{\pi}{6}$$ $$f\left(\frac{7\pi}{12}\right) = -\tan\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$$ $$f''\left(\frac{7\pi}{12}\right) = -\frac{1}{2} \sec^2\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) \tan\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = -\frac{1}{2} \left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)^2 \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right) = -\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{4}{3} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} = -\frac{2}{3\sqrt{3}}$$

Therefore,

$$f\left(\frac{7\pi}{12}\right) f''\left(\frac{7\pi}{12}\right) = \left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right) \times \left(-\frac{2}{3\sqrt{3}}\right) = \frac{2}{9}$$

8. If $y = \frac{2x^2 + 3x + 1}{x^2 + x + 1} (3\cos^2 x + 5)\cos x$, then $96 y'\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right)$ is equal to______.

JEE Mains 01/02/2024 Shift-II

Ans. = 105:

Given function -

$$y = \frac{(x + 1)(2x + 1)}{x^2 + x + 1} (3\cos^3 x + 5\cos x)$$ $$y = \frac{1}{15} (x + 1) [3\cos^5 x + 5\cos^3 x]$$

On differentiating w.r.t. $x$, we get:

$$y' = \frac{1}{15} \cdot 0 + [15\cos^4 x (-\sin x) + 15\cos^2 x (-\sin x)]$$ $$y' = -\sin x [\cos^4 x + \cos^2 x]$$

At $x = \frac{\pi}{6}$:

$$y'\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = -\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) \left[ \cos^4\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) + \cos^2\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) \right]$$ $$y'\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = -\frac{1}{2} \left[ \left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)^4 + \left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)^2 \right] = -\frac{1}{2} \left[ \frac{9}{16} + \frac{3}{4} \right] = -\frac{1}{2} \left[ \frac{9 + 12}{16} \right] = \frac{35}{32}$$ $$\therefore 96 \cdot y'\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = 96 \times \frac{35}{32} = 3 \times 35 = 105$$

9. Let $f$ and $g$ be twice differentiable functions on $\mathbb{R}$ such that

$$f''(x) = g''(x) + 6x$$ $$f'(1) = 4g'(1) - 3 = 9$$ $$f(2) = 3g(2) = 12$$

Then which of the following is not true?

(a) If $-1 < x < 2$, then $|f(x) - g(x)| < 8$

(b) $f'(x) - g'(x) < 6 \implies -1 < x < 1$

(c) $g(-2) - f(-2) = 20$

(d) There exists $x_0 \in (1, 3/2)$ such that $f(x_0) = g(x_0)$

JEE Mains 29/01/2023 Shift-II

Ans. (a) : Given $f''(x) = g''(x) + 6x$

Integrating w.r.t. $x$:

$$\int f''(x) dx = \int g''(x) dx + \int 6x dx$$ $$f'(x) = g'(x) + 3x^2 + C_1 \quad \text{---(i)}$$

Given $f'(1) = 9$ and $4g'(1) - 3 = 9 \implies g'(1) = 3$

$$f'(1) = g'(1) + 3(1)^2 + C_1 \implies 9 = 3 + 3 + C_1 \implies C_1 = 3$$ $$f'(x) = g'(x) + 3x^2 + 3$$

Integrating again w.r.t. $x$:

$$f(x) = g(x) + x^3 + 3x + C_2$$

Given $f(2) = 12$ and $3g(2) = 12 \implies g(2) = 4$:

$$f(2) = g(2) + (2)^3 + 3(2) + C_2 \implies 12 = 4 + 8 + 6 + C_2 \implies C_2 = -6$$ $$f(x) = g(x) + x^3 + 3x - 6$$

Let $L(x) = f(x) - g(x) = x^3 + 3x - 6$

Checking Options:

(a) For $-1 < x < 2$:

$$L(-1) = (-1)^3 + 3(-1) - 6 = -10$$ $$L(2) = 8 + 6 - 6 = 8$$

So $-10 < L(x) < 8 \implies |L(x)| < 10$. Thus, $|f(x) - g(x)| < 8$ is NOT true.

(b) $f'(x) - g'(x) = 3x^2 + 3 < 6 \implies 3x^2 < 3 \implies x^2 < 1 \implies x \in (-1, 1)$. (True)

(c) $L(-2) = f(-2) - g(-2) = (-2)^3 + 3(-2) - 6 = -8 - 6 - 6 = -20 \implies g(-2) - f(-2) = 20$. (True)

(d) $L(1) = 1 + 3 - 6 = -2 < 0$ and $L(3/2) = \frac{27}{8} + \frac{9}{2} - 6 = \frac{27 + 36 - 48}{8} = \frac{15}{8} > 0$. By Intermediate Value Theorem, there exists $x_0 \in (1, 3/2)$ such that $f(x_0) = g(x_0)$. (True)


10. If $y(x) = x^x, \, x > 0$, then $y''(2) - 2y'(2)$ is equal to:

(a) $8 \log_e 2 - 2$

(b) $4 \log_e 2 + 2$

(c) $(4 \log_e 2)^2 + 2$

(d) $4 (\log_e 2)^2 - 2$

JEE Mains 01/02/2023 Shift-II

Ans. (d) : Given,

$$y(x) = x^x, \quad x > 0$$ $$y(x) = e^{x \ln x}$$

Differentiating w.r.t. $x$:

$$y'(x) = e^{x \ln x} (1 + \ln x) = x^x (1 + \ln x) \quad \text{---(i)}$$

At $x = 2$:

$$y'(2) = 2^2 (1 + \ln 2) = 4(1 + \ln 2)$$

Differentiating again w.r.t. $x$:

$$y''(x) = y'(x)(1 + \ln x) + y(x)\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)$$ $$y''(x) = x^x (1 + \ln x)^2 + x^{x-1} \quad \text{---(ii)}$$

At $x = 2$:

$$y''(2) = 2^2 (1 + \ln 2)^2 + 2^{2-1} = 4(1 + \ln 2)^2 + 2 \quad \text{---(iii)}$$

Thus, evaluating $y''(2) - 2y'(2)$:

$$y''(2) - 2y'(2) = [4(1 + \ln 2)^2 + 2] - 2[4(1 + \ln 2)]$$ $$= 4(1 + 2\ln 2 + (\ln 2)^2) + 2 - 8 - 8\ln 2$$ $$= 4 + 8\ln 2 + 4(\ln 2)^2 + 2 - 8 - 8\ln 2$$ $$= 4(\log_e 2)^2 - 2$$
