$$\frac { \left( 2x-1 \right) }{ 3 } \times 60\ge \frac { \left( 3x-2 \right) }{ 4 } \times 60-\frac { 2-x }{ 5 } \times 60$$
or, 20(2x – 1) ≥ (3x – 2) x 15 – (2 – x) x 12
or, 40x – 20 ≥ 45x – 30 – 24 + 12x
or, 40x – 20 ≥ 57x – 54
Transposing 57x to L.H.S. and -20 to R.H.S., we get

Ex 6.1 Class 11 Maths Question 21.
Ravi obtained 70 and 75 marks in first two unit tests. Find the minimum marks he should get in the third test to have an average of at least 60 marks.
Solution.
Let Ravi gets x marks in third unit test.
∴ Average marks obtained by Ravi
$$=\frac { 70+75+x }{ 3 }$$
He has to obtain atleast 60 marks,
∴ $$\frac { 70+75+x }{ 3 } \ge 60\quad or,\quad \frac { 145+x }{ 3 } \ge 60$$
Multiplying both sides by 3,
145 + x ≥ 60 x 3 = 180
Transposing 145 to R.H.S., we get
x ≥ 180 – 145 = 35
∴ Ravi should get atleast 35 marks in the third unit test.

Ex 6.1 Class 11 Maths Question 22.
To receive Grade ‘A’ in the course, one must obtain an average of 90 marks or more in five examinations (each of 100 marks). If Sunita’s marks in first four examinations are 87, 92, 94 and 95, find minimum marks that Sunita must obtain in fifth examination to get grade ‘A’ in the course.
Solution.
Let Sunita obtained x marks in the fifth examination.
∴ Average marks of 5 examinations
$$=\frac { 87+92+94+95+x }{ 5 } =\frac { 368+x }{ 5 }$$
This average must be atleast 90
∴ $$\frac { 368+x }{ 5 } \ge 90$$
Multiplying both sides by 5
368 + x ≥ 5 x 90 = 450
Transposing 368 to R.H.S., we get
x ≥ 450 – 368 = 82
∴ Sunita should obtain atleast 82 marks in the fifth examination.

Ex 6.1 Class 11 Maths Question 23.
Find all pairs of consecutive odd positive integers both of which are smaller than 10, such that their sum is more than 11.
Solution.
Let x be the smaller of the two odd positive integers. Then the other integer is x + 2. We should havex + 2< 10 and x + (x + 2) > 11 or, 2x + 2 > 11
or, 2x > 11 – 2 or, 2x > 9 or, $$x>\frac { 9 }{ 2 }$$
Hence, if one number is 5 (odd number), then the other is 7. If the smaller number is 7, then the other is 9. Hence, possible pairs are (5, 7) and (7, 9).

Ex 6.1 Class 11 Maths Question 24.
Find all pairs of consecutive even positive integers, both of which are larger than 5, such that their sum is less than 23.
Solution.
Let x be the smaller of the two positive even integers then the other one is x + 2, then we should have x > 5
and x + x + 2 < 23 or, 2x + 2 < 23
or, 2x < 21 or, $$x<\frac { 21 }{ 2 }$$
Thus, the value of x may be 6,8,10 (even integers) Hence, the pairs may be (6, 8), (8,10), (10,12).

Ex 6.1 Class 11 Maths Question 25.
The longest side of a triangle is 3 times the shortest side and the third side is 2 cm shorter than the longest side. If the perimeter of the triangle is at least 61 cm, find the minimum length of the shortest side.
Solution.
Let the shortest side measures x cm
The longest side will be 3x cm.
Third side will be (3x – 2) cm.
According to the problem, x + 3x + 3x – 2 ≥ 61
or, 7x – 2 ≥ 61 or, 7x ≥ 63 or, x ≥ 9
Hence, the minimum length of the shortest side is 9 cm.

Ex 6.1 Class 11 Maths Question 26.
A man wants to cut three lengths from a single piece of board of length 91 cm. The second length is to be 3 cm longer than the shortest and the third length is to be twice as long as the shortest. What are the possible lengths for the shortest board if the third piece is to be atleast 5 cm longer than the second?
[Hint: If x is the length of the shortest board, then x, (x + 3) and 2x are the lengths of the second and third piece, respectively. Thus, x + (x + 3) + 2x ≤ 91 and 2x ≥ (x + 3) + 5].
Solution.
Let x be the length of the shortest board, then x + 3 is the second length and 2x is the third length. Thus, x + (x + 3) + 2x ≤ 91
or 4x + 3 ≤ 91 or 4x ≤ 88 or x ≤ 22
According to the problem, 2x ≥ (x + 3) + 5 or x ≥ 8
∴ Atleast 8 cm but not more than 22 cm are the possible lengths for the shortest board.

2x – y> 1, x – 2y < -1
Solution.
The inequalities are 2x – y > 1 and x – 2y < -1

(i) Let us draw the graph of line
l1 : 2x – y = 1, passes through $$\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } ,0 \right)$$ and
(0, -1) which is represented by AB. Consider the inequality 2x – y > 1.
Putting x = y = 0, we get 0 > 1, which is false.
Therefore, origin does not lie in region of 2x – y > 1 i.e., 2x – y > 1 represents the area below the line AB excluding all the points lying on 2x – y = 1.

(ii) Let us draw the graph of the line

Consider the inequality x – 2y < -1
Putting x = y = 0, we have 0 < -1, which is false.
Therefore, origin does not lie in region of x – 2y < -1 i.e., x – 2y < -1 represents the area above the line CD excluding all the points lying on x – 2y = -1
⇒ The common region of both the inequality is the shaded region as shown in figure.

Consider the inequality x + y ≤ 6
Putting x = 0, y = 0 in x + y ≤ 6 0 ≤ 6, which is true.
