JEE Advanced 2021 — Paper 2 — Question 25

For any real number x , let [x[\mathrm{x} ] denote the largest integer less than or equal to x . If

I=∫010[10xx+1]dxI=\int_{0}^{10}\left[\sqrt{\frac{10 x}{x+1}}\right] d x

then the value of 9I is \qquad

Answer: 182

Numerical answer — enter this value.

Step-by-step solution

I=∫010[10xx+1]dx[10xx+1]=n\begin{gathered} I=\int_{0}^{10}\left[\sqrt{\frac{10 x}{x+1}}\right] d x {\left[\sqrt{\frac{10 x}{x+1}}\right]=n} \end{gathered}

⇒n210−n2≤x< (n+1)210−(n+1)2 where n∈I\Rightarrow \frac{n^{2}}{10-n^{2}} \leq x<\ \frac{(n+1)^{2}}{10-(n+1)^{2}} \text { where } n \in I

For n=0,0≤x<1/9\mathrm{n}=0,0 \leq \mathrm{x}<1 / 9

n=1;1/9≤x<2/3\mathrm{n}=1 ; 1 / 9 \leq \mathrm{x}<2 / 3

n=2;2/3≤x<9,n=3,x≥9\mathrm{n}=2 ; 2 / 3 \leq \mathrm{x}<9, \mathrm{n}=3, \mathrm{x} \geq 9

⇒I=∫01/90⋅dx+∫1/92/31⋅dx+∫2/392⋅dx+∫9103⋅dx\Rightarrow \quad I=\int_{0}^{1 / 9} 0 \cdot d x+\int_{1 / 9}^{2 / 3} 1 \cdot d x+\int_{2 / 3}^{9} 2 \cdot d x+\int_{9}^{10} 3 \cdot d x =(23−19)+2(9−23)+3(10−9)=1829=9I=182=\left(\frac{2}{3}-\frac{1}{9}\right)+2\left(9-\frac{2}{3}\right)+3(10-9)=\frac{182}{9}=9 \mathrm{I}=182
