Question 1. For every positive integral value of n, 3n > n3 when
  1.    n > 2
  2.    n≥3
  3.    n≥ 4
  4.    n < 4
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> n≥ 4
:
C
Check through option, the condition 3n > n3 is
true when n≥ 4.
Question 2. For every natural number n
  1.    n>2n
  2.    n
  3.    n≥2n
  4.    Can't be determined.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> n
:
B
Let n = 1 then option (a) and (d) is eliminated.
Equality can't be attained for any value of n so,
option (b) satisfied.
Question 3. For each n ∈ N, the correct statement is
  1.    2n < n
  2.    n2 > 2n
  3.    n4 < 10n
  4.    23n > 7n + 1
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> n4 < 10n
:
C
Let n = 1, then option (a), (b) and (d)
eliminated. Only option (c) satisfied.
Question 4. For natural number n, (n!)2 > nn, if
  1.    n > 3
  2.    n > 4
  3.    n≥ 4
  4.    n≥ 3
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> n≥ 3
:
D
Check through option, condition (n!)2 > nn is
true when n≥ 3.
Question 5. If n ∈ N, then 11n+2 + 122n+1 is divisible by
 
  1.    113
  2.    123
  3.    133
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 133
:
C
Putting n = 1 in 11n+2+122n+1
We get, 111+2+122×1+1 = 113+123 = 3059, which
is divisible by 133.
Question 6. For every natural number n, n(n21) is divisible by
 
  1.    4
  2.    6
  3.    10
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 6
:
B
n(n21) = (n - 1)(n)(n + 1)
It is product of three consecutive natural
numbers, so according to Langrange's theorem
it is divisible by 3 ! i.e., 6.
Question 7. For positive integer n, 10n2 > 81n, if
  1.    n > 5
  2.    n≥ 5
  3.    n < 5
  4.    n > 6
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> n≥ 5
:
B
Check through option, the condition
10n2 > 81n is satisfied if n≥ 5.
Question 8. For natural number n, 2n(n-1) ! < nn, if
  1.    n < 2
  2.    n > 2
  3.    n≥ 2
  4.    Never
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> n > 2
:
B
Check through option, the condition
2n(n-1)!<nn is satisfied for n > 2.
Question 9. Let P(n) denote the statement that n2 + n is odd. It
is seem that P(n)  ⇒ P(n + 1), Pn is true for all
  1.    n > 1
  2.    n
  3.    n > 2
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> None of these
:
D
P(n) = n2 + n. It is always odd (statement) but
square of any odd number is always odd and
also, sum of odd number is always even. So
for no any 'n' for which this statement is true.
Question 10. If n is a natural number then (n+12)n ≥ n ! is true
when
  1.    n > 1
  2.    n≥ 1
  3.    n > 2 
  4.    n≥2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> n≥ 1
:
B
Check through option, the condition
(n+12)n≥ n ! is true for n≥ 1.
