30. A determinant of order 2 is of the form ∆ = It is equal to ad – bc.

{ Q Two columns of determinant are equal}. Ans.(1)
The total number of ways of choosing a, b, c and d is 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16. Now 44. p {a + (p – 1) d} = q {a + (q – 1) d}
∆ ≠ 0 if and only if either ad = 1, bc = 0 or ad = 0, bc = 1. But ad =1, ⇒ ap + (p 2 – p) d = aq + (q 2 – q)d
bc = 0 if and only if a = d = 1 and the least one of b, c is zero. ⇒ a (p – q) + (p 2 – q 2 ) d + (q – p) d = 0
Thus, ad = 1, bc = 0 in three cases. Similarly, ad = 0, bc = 1 in three cases. ⇒ (p – q) {a + (p + q – 1) d} = 0
Thus, the probability of the required event is 6/16 = 3/8. Ans.(2) ⇒ a + (p + q – 1) d = 0 ⇒ T p + q = 0 { Q p ≠ q}. Ans. (1)

Since e–2x ≠ 0 for any x, f’(x) = 0 ⇒ x = 0, 1.
f”(x) = 2(– 2x + 1) e–2x – 4(– x 2 + x)e –2x Therefore, c 2 = 0 or c 2 = 4/3. If c 2 = 0, then c 1 = 1 and c 3 = 1, and if
f”(0) = 2 and f”(1) = 2[– 1]e –2 < 0 c 2 = 4/3, then c 1 = –1/3, c 3 = – 1/3.
