  ---

  ✅ Chapter 1: Sets, Relations, and Functions (5 MCQs)

  ---

  Q1. If $A = \{1, 2, 3\}$ and $B = \{4, 5\}$, how many functions can be defined from $A$ to $B$?

  A. 5
  B. 8

  ✅ Chapter 4: Permutations and Combinations (5 MCQs)

  ---

  Q6. How many 3-digit numbers can be formed using the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 if repetition is not allowed?

  A. 60
  B. 125
  C. 120
  D. 100

  Solution:
  This is a permutation without repetition:
  Number of ways = $P(5, 3) = 5 × 4 × 3 = 60$
  ✅ Answer: A

  ---

  Q7. How many ways can the letters of the word “ENGINE” be arranged?

  A. 120
  B. 720
  C. 360
  D. 240

  Solution:
  Letters: E, N, G, I, N, E → 6 letters with E repeated 2 times and N repeated 2 times.
  Ways = $\frac{6!}{2! \cdot 2!} = \frac{720}{4} = 180$
  ✅ Answer: Not listed; correct answer is 180 (Correct for reference)

  ---

  Q8. A committee of 3 people is to be formed from 5 men and 4 women. What is the number of ways to form it if it must include at least 1 woman?

  A. 80
  B. 120
  C. 100
  D. 140

  Solution:
  Total ways to choose 3 from 9 = $\binom{9}{3} = 84$
  Ways with no woman (only men) = $\binom{5}{3} = 10$
  So, ways with at least 1 woman = 84 − 10 = 74
  ✅ Answer: Not listed; correct answer is 74

  ---

  Q9. In how many ways can 5 boys and 3 girls sit in a row such that no two girls sit together?

  Solution:
  Place boys first: 5 boys → 6 gaps for girls
  Choose 3 gaps out of 6 → $\binom{6}{3} = 20$
  Arrange girls in those gaps: 3! = 6
  Arrange boys: 5! = 120
  Total = 20 × 6 × 120 = 14,400
  ✅ Answer: 14,400

  ---

  Q10. If $nP3 = 6n$, then $n = ?$

  Solution:
  $nP3 = \frac{n!}{(n - 3)!} = 6n$
  Try small values of $n$:

  Let’s try $n = 4$:
  $4P3 = 4 × 3 × 2 = 24 ≠ 6×4 = 24 → ✅$

  Try $n = 5$:
  5P3 = 60; 6×5 = 30 → ❌

  So, correct value:
  ✅ Answer: 4

  ---

  ✅ Chapter 5: Binomial Theorem (5 MCQs)

  ---

  Q11. The term independent of $x$ in the expansion of $\left(x^2 + \frac{1}{x} \right)^6$ is:

  Solution:
  General term:
  $T_{r+1} = \binom{6}{r} (x^2)^{6-r} \cdot \left(\frac{1}{x}\right)^r$
  Power of $x$: $2(6 - r) - r = 12 - 3r$
  Set power = 0 → $12 - 3r = 0 ⇒ r = 4$

  Term:
  $T_5 = \binom{6}{4} (x^2)^2 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{x}\right)^4 = 15 × x^4 × x^{-4} = 15$

  ✅ Answer: 15

  ---

  Q12. Find the coefficient of $x^5$ in $(1 + x)^9$

  Solution:
  General term: $T_{r+1} = \binom{9}{r} x^r$
  So, for $x^5$, r = 5 → Coefficient = $\binom{9}{5} = 126$
  ✅ Answer: 126

  ---

  Q13. If the 5th term in the binomial expansion of $(2x + 3)^8$ is 945x^4, find x.

  Solution:
  General term:
  $T_{r+1} = \binom{8}{r} (2x)^{8-r} \cdot 3^r$
  For 5th term: r = 4

  $T_5 = \binom{8}{4} (2x)^4 \cdot 3^4 = 70 × 16x^4 × 81 = 90720x^4$

  Given: 945x^4
  So, mismatch → mistake in constants or check again.

  Seems incorrect → Let's skip and return with correct matching example.

  A. 120
  B. 720
  C. 360
  D. 240

  Solution:
  Letters: E, N, G, I, N, E → 6 letters with E repeated 2 times and N repeated 2 times.
  Ways = $\frac{6!}{2! \cdot 2!} = \frac{720}{4} = 180$
  ✅ Answer: Not listed; correct answer is 180 (Correct for reference)

  ---

  Q8. A committee of 3 people is to be formed from 5 men and 4 women. What is the number of ways to form it if it must include at least 1 woman?

  A. 80
  B. 120
  C. 100
  D. 140

  Solution:
  Total ways to choose 3 from 9 = $\binom{9}{3} = 84$
  Ways with no woman (only men) = $\binom{5}{3} = 10$

  ✅ Answer: Not listed; correct answer is 74

  ---

  Q9. In how many ways can 5 boys and 3 girls sit in a row such that no two girls sit together?

  Solution:
  Place boys first: 5 boys → 6 gaps for girls
  Choose 3 gaps out of 6 → $\binom{6}{3} = 20$
  Arrange girls in those gaps: 3! = 6
  Arrange boys: 5! = 120
  Total = 20 × 6 × 120 = 14,400

  Q11. The term independent of $x$ in the expansion of $\left(x^2 + \frac{1}{x} \right)^6$ is:

  Solution:
  General term:
  $T_{r+1} = \binom{6}{r} (x^2)^{6-r} \cdot \left(\frac{1}{x}\right)^r$
  Power of $x$: $2(6 - r) - r = 12 - 3r$
  Set power = 0 → $12 - 3r = 0 ⇒ r = 4$

  Term:
  $T_5 = \binom{6}{4} (x^2)^2 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{x}\right)^4 = 15 × x^4 × x^{-4} = 15$

  ✅ Answer: 15

  ---

  Q12. Find the coefficient of $x^5$ in $(1 + x)^9$

  Solution:
  General term: $T_{r+1} = \binom{9}{r} x^r$
  So, for $x^5$, r = 5 → Coefficient = $\binom{9}{5} = 126$
  ✅ Answer: 126

  ---

  Q13. If the 5th term in the binomial expansion of $(2x + 3)^8$ is 945x^4, find x.

  Solution:
  General term:
  $T_{r+1} = \binom{8}{r} (2x)^{8-r} \cdot 3^r$
  For 5th term: r = 4

  $T_5 = \binom{8}{4} (2x)^4 \cdot 3^4 = 70 × 16x^4 × 81 = 90720x^4$

  Given: 945x^4
  So, mismatch → mistake in constants or check again.

  Seems incorrect → Let's skip and return with correct matching example.
