(This section comprises of 3 case-study/passage-based questions of 4 marks each with
subparts. The first two case study questions have three subparts (i), (ii), (iii) of marks 1,

CASE STUDY -1
36.Shivani, the owner of a sweet selling shop, purchased some rectangular card board sheets
of dimension 25 by 40 cm to make container packets without top. Let x cm be the length of the
side of the square to be cut out from each corner to give that sheet the shape of the container
by folding up the flaps.
CASE STUDY -2

history.An exhibit in the museum depicted many rail lines on the track near the railway station.
Let L be the set of all rail lines on the railway track and R be the relation on L. defined by
R={(L1,L2 ): L1 is parallel to L2}
CASE STUDY -3
38. In an agricultural institute, scientists do experiments with varieties of seeds to grow them in
different environments to produce healthy plants and get more yield.
A scientist observed that a particular seed grew very fast after germination. He had recorded
growth of plant since germination and he said that its growth can be defined by the function f(x)
= 1/3x3 - 4x2 + 15x + 2, 0≤ x ≤10 where x is the number of days the plant is exposed to sunlight.
