NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Maths Chapter 6 - Linear Inequalities

Solving inequalities and a linear equation is almost similar, except for one difference. When you divide or multiply both sides of an equation with the same negative integer, the equation does not change. Whereas if you multiply or divide both sides of inequality using the same negative integer, its inequality reverses. To get more accustomed to the concepts, theories and solving techniques of linear inequality, please refer to the Linear Inequalities Class 11 NCERT Solutions PDF available on Vedantu.

Linear Inequalities Chapter at a Glance - Class 11 NCERT Solutions

  • Two real numbers or two algebraic expressions related by the symbols $<,>, \leq$ or 2 form an inequality.

  • Equal numbers may be added to (or subtracted from) both sides of an inequality.

  • Both sides of an inequality can be multiplied (or divided) by the same positive number. But when both sides are multiplied (or divided) by a negative number, then the inequality is reversed.

  • The values of $x$, which make an ineçulity a true statement, arc called solutions of the ineçuality.

  • To represent $x<a$ (or $x>a$ ) on a number line, put a circle on the number a and dark line to the left (or right) of the number a.

  • To represent $x \leq a$ (or $x 2 a$ ) on a number line, put a dark circle on the number a and dark the line to the left (or right) of the number x.

  • If an inequality is having $\leq$ or 2 symbol, then the points on the line are also included in the solutions of the inequality and the graph of the inequality lies left(below) or right (above) of the graph of the equality represented by dark line that satisfies arbitrary point in that part

  • If an inequality is having $<$ or $>$ symbol, then the points on the line are now included in the solutions of the inequality and the graph of the inequality lies to the left (below) or right (above) of the graph of the corresponding equality represented by dotted line that satisfies an arbitrary point in that part

  • The solution region of a system of inequalities is the region which satisfies all the given inequalities in the system simultaneously.

21. Ravi obtained 70 and 75 marks in first two-unit test. Find the minimum marks he should get in the third test to have an average of at least 60 marks.

Ans: Let x represent Ravi's score on the third unit test. Because the student must have a grade point average of at least 60, $\dfrac{{70 + 75 + x}}{3} \geqslant 60$

$\Rightarrow 145 + x \geqslant 180$

$\Rightarrow x \geqslant 180 - 145$

$\Rightarrow x \geqslant 35$

As a result, the student must score at least 35 points to achieve a 60-point average.


22. To receive Grade ' ${{\text{A}}^*}$ in a course, one must obtain an average of $90{\text{marks}}$ 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 ' ${\text{A}}$ " in the course.

Ans: Let x represent Sunita's grade in the fifth examination. She must receive an average of 90 or above in five examinations in order to receive a grade of  in the course,

$\dfrac{{87 + 92 + 94 + 95 + x}}{5} \geqslant 90$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{{368 + x}}{5} \geqslant 90$

$\Rightarrow 368 + x \geqslant 450$

$\Rightarrow x \geqslant 450 - 368$

$\Rightarrow x \geqslant 82$

Sunita must therefore achieve a score of at least 82 in the fifth examination.


23. Find all pairs of consecutive odd positive integers both of which are smaller than 10 such that their sum is more than 11 .

Ans: Let x be the lesser of the two odd positive integers that follow. Then there's x + 2 as the other integer. Because both integers are less than  10 , $x + 2 < 10$

$\Rightarrow x < 10 - 2$

$\Rightarrow x < 8 \ldots .(t)$

 Furthermore, the sum of the two integers exceeds 11.$\therefore x + (x + 2) > 11$

$\Rightarrow 2x + 2 > 11$

$\Rightarrow 2x > 11 - 2$

$\Rightarrow 2x > 9$

$\Rightarrow x > \dfrac{9}{2}$

$\Rightarrow x > 4.5$

We get I and (ii) from I and (ii).

Because x is an odd number, the values 5 and 7 can be used.

As a result, the required pairs are $(5,7)$ and $(7,9)$.


24. Find all pairs of consecutive even positive integers, both of which are larger than 5 such that their sum is less than 23 .

Ans: Let be the smaller of the two even positive integers that follow. The other integer is x + 2

 because both integers are greater than 5, $x > 5 \ldots  \ldots (1)$

Also, the sum of the two integers is less than 23 $x + (x + 2) < 23$

$\Rightarrow 2x + 2 < 23$

$\Rightarrow 2x < 23 - 2$

$\Rightarrow 2x < 21$

$\Rightarrow x < \dfrac{{21}}{2}$

$\Rightarrow x < 10.5 \ldots  \ldots (2)$

From $(1)$ and $(2)$, we obtain $5 < x < 10.5$ 

Because x is an even number, it can have any of the following values: 6,8, or 10.

As a result, the required pairs are $(6,8),(8,10)$ and $(10,12)$.


25. The longest side of a triangle is 3 times the shortest side and the third side is $2\;{\text{cm}}$ shorter than the longest side. If the perimeter of the triangle is at least $61\;{\text{cm}}$, find the minimum length of the shortest side.

Ans: Determine the length of the triangle's shortest side  ${\text{xcm}}$. Then, length of the longest side $ = 3{\text{xcm}}$ Length of the third side $(3x - 2){\text{cm}}$ Since the perimeter of the triangle is at least $61\;{\text{cm}}$, $xcm + 3xcm + (3x - 2)cm \geqslant 61\;{\text{cm}}$

$\Rightarrow 7x - 2 \geqslant 61$

$\Rightarrow 7x \geqslant 61 + 2$

$\Rightarrow 7x \geqslant 63$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{{7x}}{7} \geqslant \dfrac{{63}}{7}$

$\Rightarrow x \geqslant 9$

As a result, the shortest side's minimal length is  $9\;{\text{cm}}$.


26. A man wants to cut three lengths from a single piece of board of length $91\;{\text{cm}}$. The second length is to be $3\;{\text{cm}}$ longer than the shortest and the third length is to be twice as bang as the shortest. What are the possible lengths of the shortest board if the third piece is to be at least $5\;{\text{cm}}$ longer than the second? [Hint: It $x$ is the length of the shortest board, then $x,(x + 3)$ and $2 x$ are the lengths of the second and third piece, respectively. Thus, $x = (x + 3) + 2x \leqslant 91$ and $2x \geqslant (x + 3) + 5]$

Ans: The shortest piece's length should be ${\text{xcm}}$. Then, length of the second piece and the third piece are $({\text{x}} + 3){\text{cm}}$ and $2{\text{xcm}}$ respectively. Since the three lengths are to be cut from a single piece of board of length $91\;{\text{cm}}$, $x\;{\text{cm}} + (x + 3){\text{cm}} + 2x\;{\text{cm}} \leqslant 91\;{\text{cm}}$

$\Rightarrow 4x + 3 \leqslant 91$

$\Rightarrow 4x \leqslant 91 - 3$

$\Rightarrow 4x \leqslant 88$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{{4x}}{4} \leqslant \dfrac{{88}}{4}$

$\Rightarrow x \leqslant 22 \ldots .(1)$

 In addition, the third component is at least 5 cm as long as the second. $\therefore 2x \geqslant (x + 3) + 5$

$\Rightarrow 2x \geqslant x + 8$

$\Rightarrow x \geqslant 8$

From (1) and (2), we obtain $8 \leqslant x \leqslant 22$

As a result, the smallest board's potential length is larger than or equal to but less than or equal to $22\;{\text{cm}}$.

11. Solve the following system of inequalities graphically: $2x + y \geqslant 4,x + y \leqslant 3,2x - 3y \leqslant 6$

Ans: The set of inequalities are given as,

$2 x+y \geq 4$

$x+y \leq 3$

$2 x-3 y \leq 6$

Simplifying $2 \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y} \geq 4$ by substituting different values of $\mathrm{x}$ and $\mathrm{y}$.

When $\mathrm{x}=0$, then, $\mathrm{y}=4$

When $\mathrm{y}=0$, then, $\mathrm{x}=2$

So, the coordinates are $(0,4)$ and $(2,0)$.

Now, if $\mathrm{x}=0$ and $\mathrm{y}=0$, then,

$0 \geq 4$

Which can never be true, so the graph will be shaded away the origin. Simplifying $\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y} \leq 3$ by substituting different values of $\mathrm{x}$ and $\mathrm{y}$.

When $\mathrm{x}=0$, then, $\mathrm{y}=3$

When $\mathrm{y}=0$, then, $\mathrm{x}=3$

So, the coordinates are $(0,3)$ and $(3,0)$.

Now, if $\mathrm{x}=0$ and $\mathrm{y}=0$, then,

$0 \leq 3$

Which is true, so the graph will be shaded towards the origin. Simplifying $2 \mathrm{x}-3 \mathrm{y} \leq 6$ by substituting different values of $\mathrm{x}$ and $\mathrm{y}$.

When $\mathrm{x}=0$, then, $\mathrm{y}=-2$

When $\mathrm{y}=0$, then, $\mathrm{x}=3$

So, the coordinates are $(0,-2)$ and $(3,0)$.

Now, if $\mathrm{x}=0$ and $\mathrm{y}=0$, then,

$0 \leq 6$

Which is true, so the graph will be shaded towards the origin.

$\text { Putting } x=0, y=0$

$4 x+3 y \leq 60$

$4(0)+3(0) \leq 60$

$0 \leq 60$

which is true

Hence origin lies in plane $3 x+4 y \leq 60$

So, we shade the left side of the line.

Now we solve $y \geq 2 x$

Putting $x=0$ in (1)

y=2(0)

y=0

Putting $x=2$ in (1)

$y=2(2)$

11. A solution is to be kept between ${68^\circ }{\text{F}}$ and ${77^\circ }{\text{F}}$. What is the range in temperature in degree Celsius (C) if the Celsius/Fahrenheit (F) conversion formula is given by $F = \dfrac{9}{5}C + 32?$

Ans: Because the solution must be preserved somewhere in the middle, ${68^\circ }{\text{F}}$ and ${77^\circ }{\text{F}},68 < F < 77$ Putting $F = \dfrac{9}{5}C + 32$, we obtain $68 < \dfrac{9}{5}C + 32 < 77$

$\Rightarrow 68 - 32 < \dfrac{9}{5}C < 77 - 32$

$\Rightarrow 36 < \dfrac{9}{5}C < 45$

$\Rightarrow 36 \times \dfrac{5}{9} < C < 45 \times \dfrac{5}{9}$

$\Rightarrow 20 < C < 25$

As a result, the required temperature range in degrees Celsius is between ${20^\circ }C$ and ${25^\circ }C$.


12. A solution of $8\% $ boric acid is to be diluted by adding a $2\% $ boric acid solution to it. The resulting mixture is to be more than $4\% $ but less than $6\% $ boric acid. If we have 640 litres of the $8\% $ solution, how many litres of the $2\% $ solution will have to be added?

Ans: Let $2\% $ of $x$ litres of boric acid solution is required to be added. Then, total mixture $ = (x + 640)$ litres.

 This resulting mixture is to be more than $4\% $ but less than $6\% $ boric acid. 

$\therefore \quad 2 \%$ of $x+8 \%$ of $640>4 \%$ of $(x+640)$

And, $2 \%$ of $x+8 \%$ of $640<6 \%$ of $(x+640)$`

$\Rightarrow 2x + 5120 > 4x + 2560$

$\Rightarrow 5120 - 2560 > 4x - 2x$

$\Rightarrow 5120 - 2560 > 2x$

$\Rightarrow 2560 > 2x$

$\Rightarrow 1280 > x$

$2\% x + 8\% $ of $640 < 6\% $ of $(x + 640)$ $\dfrac{2}{{100}}x + \dfrac{8}{{100}}(640) < \dfrac{6}{{100}}(x + 640)$

$\Rightarrow 2x + 5120 < 6x + 3840$

$\Rightarrow 5120 - 3840 < 6x - 2x$

$\Rightarrow 5120 - 3840 < 6x - 2x$

$\Rightarrow 1280 < 4x$

$\Rightarrow 320 < x$

$\therefore 320 < x < 1280$

As a result, the total amount of boric acid solution to be added must be greater than 320 litres but less than 1280 litres.


13. How many litres of water will have to be added to 1125 litres of the $45\% $ solution of acid so that the resulting mixture will contain more than $25\% $ but less than $30\% $ acid content?

Ans: Allow for the addition of x litres of water. The entire mixture is then calculated $ = (x + 1125)$litres It is clear that the amount of acid in the final mixture is excessive. $45\% $ of 1125 litres. The resulting mixture will have a higher concentration of $25\% $ but less than $30\% $ acid content.

$\therefore 30\% $ of $(1125 + x) > 45\% $ of 1125

And, $25\% $ of $(1125 + x) < 45\% $ of 1125 

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{{30}}{{100}}(1125 + x) > \dfrac{{45}}{{100}} \times 1125$

$\Rightarrow 30(1125 + x) > 45 \times 1125$

$\Rightarrow 30 \times 1125 + 30x > 45 \times 1125$

$\Rightarrow 30 > 45 \times 1125 - 30 \times 1125$

$\Rightarrow 30x > (45 - 30) \times 1125$

$\Rightarrow x > \dfrac{{15 \times 1125}}{{30}} = 562.5$

$25\% $ of $(1125 + x) < 45\% $ of 1125 $\Rightarrow \dfrac{{25}}{{100}}(1125 + x) < \dfrac{{45}}{{100}} \times 1125$

$\Rightarrow 25(1125 + x) > 45 \times 1125$

$\Rightarrow 25 \times 1125 + 25x > 45 \times 1125$

$\Rightarrow 25x > 45 \times 1125 - 25 \times 1125$

$\Rightarrow 25x > (45 - 25) \times 1125$

$\Rightarrow x > \dfrac{{20 \times 1125}}{{25}} = 900$

$\therefore 562.5 < x < 900$

As a result, the required number of litres of water must be greater than 562.5 but less than 900.


14. IQ of a person is given by the formula $IQ = \dfrac{{MA}}{{CA}} \times 100$, Where MA is mental age and CA is chronological age. If $80 \leqslant 1Q \leqslant 140$ for a group of 12 years old children, find the range of their mental age.

Ans: It is reported that for a group of twelve-year-olds $80 \leqslant IQ \leqslant 140 \ldots  \ldots (i)$

For a group of 12 years old children, ${\text{CA}} = 12$ years ${\text{IQ}} = \dfrac{{{\text{MA}}}}{{12}} \times 100$

Putting this value of IQ in (i), we obtain $80 \leqslant \dfrac{{{\text{MA}}}}{{12}} \times 100 \leqslant 140$

$\Rightarrow 80 \times \dfrac{{12}}{{100}} \leqslant {\text{MA}} \leqslant 140 \times \dfrac{{12}}{{100}}$

$\Rightarrow 9.6 \leqslant {\text{MA}} \leqslant 16.8$

As a result, the mental age range of the 12-year-olds has widened.$\Rightarrow 9.6 \leqslant {\text{MA}} \leqslant 16.8$.

Key Learnings from Chapter 6 Class 11 Maths NCERT Solution

Chapter 6 of Class 11 Maths NCERT Solutions is mainly based on the following concepts:

  • Understanding of linear inequalities

  • Algebraic solutions of linear inequalities

  • Graphical representation of linear inequalities

Below are some of the important concepts, theorems, or formulas discussed in this chapter.

  • A statement that involves less than, greater than, or equal to is called an inequality. Thus, linear inequalities is the study of problems that involve non-equal expressions or numbers. 

  • Two algebraic expressions or two real numbers related by the symbols “<, >, ≤, or ≥” from an inequality.

  • Equal numbers may be added to or subtracted from both sides of an inequality.

  • Both sides of an inequality may be multiplied or divided by the same positive number. When both sides are multiplied (or divided) by a negative number, the inequality is reversed.

  • The values of x make an inequality a true statement and are also called the solutions of the inequality.

  • For the representation of x < a (or x > a) on a number line, you need to put a circle on the number a and a dark line to the left or the right of the number a.

  • For the representation of x ≤ a (or x ≥ a) on a number line, you need to put a dark circle on the number a and dark the line to the left or right of the number x.

  • If inequality consists of a ≤ or ≥ symbol, then the points on the line are included in the solutions of the inequality and the graph of the inequality lies left (below) or right (above) of the graph of the equality which is represented by a dark line that satisfies an arbitrary point in that part.

  • If an inequality has a < or > symbol, then the points on the line are not included in the solutions of the inequality and the graph of the inequality lies to the left (below) or right (above) of the graph of the equality which is represented by a dotted line that satisfies an arbitrary point in that part.

  • The solution region of a system of inequalities is the region that satisfies all the given inequalities in the system simultaneously.

Class 11 Maths NCERT Solutions Chapter 6 will be helpful for the students to have a deep understanding of the concepts.
