प्रश्न

Read the following passage:

The use of electric vehicles will curb air pollution in the long run.

The use of electric vehicles is increasing every year and the estimated electric vehicles in use at any time t is given by the function V:

V(t) = `1/5 t^3 - 5/2 t^2 + 25t - 2`

where t represents the time and t = 1, 2, 3, ...... corresponds to years 2001, 2002, 2003, ...... respectively.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions:

  1. Can the above function be used to estimate number of vehicles in the year 2000? Justify. (2)
  2. Prove that the function V(t) is an increasing function. (2)

उत्तर

Given, the estimated of electric vehicles in use at any time t is given by

V(t) = `1/5 t^3 - 5/2 t^2 + 25t - 2`

  1. No, the function cannot be used to calculate the number of vehicles in 2000.
    As, t = 1, 2, 3, ... where starting year is 2001, 2002, 2003 ...
    Therefore, it could not be used to calculate the year before 2001.
  2. Here, V(t) = `1/5 t^3 - 5/2 t^2 + 25t - 2`
    `(dV(t))/(dt) = 1/5 xx 3t^2 - 5/2 xx 2t + 25`
    V'(t) = `3/5 t^2 - 5t + 25`
    For the function to be increasing V'(t) > 0
    Here, `3/2 t^2 - 5t + 25 > 0`
    Hence, function V(t) > 0
    So, it is an increasing function.
