Medium MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2021

Let y = y(x) satisfies the equation ${{dy} \over {dx}} - |A| = 0$, for all x > 0, where $$A = \left[ {\matrix{ y & {\sin x} & 1 \cr 0 & { - 1} & 1 \cr 2 & 0 & {{1 \over x}} \cr } } \right]$$. If $y(\pi ) = \pi + 2$, then the value of $y\left( {{\pi \over 2}} \right)$ is :

  1. A ${\pi \over 2} + {4 \over \pi }$ Correct answer
  2. B ${\pi \over 2} - {1 \over \pi }$
  3. C ${{3\pi } \over 2} - {1 \over \pi }$
  4. D ${\pi \over 2} - {4 \over \pi }$

Solution

$|A| = - {y \over x} + 2\sin x + 2$<br><br>${{dy} \over {dx}} = |A|$<br><br>${{dy} \over {dx}} = - {y \over x} + 2\sin x + 2$<br><br>${{dy} \over {dx}} + {y \over x} = 2\sin x + 2$<br><br>$I.F. = {e^{\int {{1 \over x}dx} }} = x$<br><br>$\Rightarrow yx = \int {x(2\sin x + 2)dx}$<br><br>$xy = {x^2} - 2x\cos x + 2\sin x + c$ .....
