Question

The greatest possible number of points of intersections of 8 straight line and 4 circles is :

  1. 32    
  2. 64    
  3. 76    
  4. 104    

hintHint:

The number point of intersection between two lines can be counted by finding the number of ways in which two lines can be selected out of the lot as two lines can intersect at most one point.
The number point of intersection between two circles can be counted by finding the number of ways in which two circles can be selected out of the lot multiplied by 2 as two circles can intersect at most two points.

The correct answer is: 104


     Detailed Solution
    The number point of intersection between two circles can be counted by finding the number of ways in which one circle and one line can be selected out of the lot multiplied by 2 as one circle and one line can intersect at most two points.

    For selecting r objects from n objects can be done by using the formula as follows
    C presuperscript n subscript r space equals space fraction numerator n factorial over denominator r factorial left parenthesis n minus r right parenthesis factorial end fraction
     As mentioned in the question, we have to find the total number of intersection points.
    For calculating the points of intersection between two lines, we can use the formula which is mentioned in the hint as follows = C presuperscript 8 subscript 2 space cross times 1 space equals space 28
     For calculating the points of intersection between two circles, we can use the formula which is mentioned in the hint as follows = C presuperscript 4 subscript 2 space cross times 2 space equals space 12

     For calculating the points of intersection between one line and one circle, we can use the formula which is mentioned in the hint as follows = C presuperscript 4 subscript 1 space cross times C presuperscript 8 subscript 1 cross times 2 space equals space 64

     Hence, the total number of points of intersection is = 28 + 64 + 12 = 104

    The students can make an error if they don’t know about the formula for calculating the number of points as mentioned in the hint which is as follows
    The number point of intersection between two lines can be counted by finding the number of ways in which two lines can be selected out of the lot as two lines can intersect at most one point.
    The number point of intersection between two circles can be counted by finding the number of ways in which two circles can be selected out of the lot multiplied by 2 as two circles can intersect at most two points.
    The number point of intersection between two circles can be counted by finding the number of ways in which one circle and one line can be selected out of the lot multiplied by 2 as one circle and one line can intersect at most two points.

    How many different nine digit numbers can be formed from the number 2,2,3,3,5,5,8,8,8 by rearranging its digits so that the odd digits occupy even position ?

    Here we have obtained the total number of 9 digit numbers using the given digits. While finding the number of ways to arrange the odd digits in 5 even places, we have divided the 4! by 2because the digit 3 were occurring two times and the digit 5 were occurring 2 times. Here we can make a mistake by conserving the number of even digits 4 and the number of odd digits 5, which will result in the wrong answer.

    The sum of all the numbers that can be formed with the digits 2, 3, 4, 5 taken all at a time is (repetition is not allowed) :

     Alternatively, we can use the formula for the sum of numbers as
    left parenthesis n minus 1 right parenthesis factorial space cross times space left parenthesis S u m space o f space d i g i t s right parenthesis space cross times left parenthesis 11111...... space n t i m e s right parenthesis
    We can also solve this problem by writing all the possible numbers and finding the sum of them which will be time taking and make us confused. We should know that the value of the digits is determined by the place where they were present. We should check whether there is zero in the given digits and whether there are any repetitions present in the numbers. Similarly, we can expect problems to find the sum of numbers formed by these digits with repetition allowed.

    Total number of divisors of 480, that are of the form 4n + 2, n greater or equal than 0, is equal to :

    We can also solve this question by writing 4n + 2 = 2(2n + 1) where 2n + 1 is always an odd number. So, when all odd divisors will be multiplied by 2, we will get the divisors that we require. Hence, we can say a number of divisors of 4n + 2 form is the same as the number of odd divisors for 480.
