PREFACE
It gives me immense pleasure to present the question bank of Class XII
Mathematics for session 2016-17 by KVS Jaipur Region.
This question bank is prepared strictly as per the question pattern framed by the
CBSE of Mathematics for Class XII.
I am confident that the question bank for Class XII Mathematics will help the
students immensely to understand the board based questions pattern and will improve
the quality performance of the students.
Wish you all the best.

10.A school wants to award its students for the values of honesty,regularity and hardwork
with a total cash award of Rs.6000. Three times the award money for hard work with a
total cash award of Rs.6000.Three times the award money for hardwork added to that
given for honesty amounts to Rs.11000.The award money given for honesty and hard
work together is double the one given for regularity. Represent the above situation
algebraically and find the award for each value using matrix method . Apart from these
values namely honesty ,regularity and hard work suggest one more value which the
school must include for awards.

12.An amount of Rs.600 crores is to be spend by the government in three schemes. Scheme
A is for saving girl child from the cruel parents who don’t want girl child and get the
abortion before her birth. Scheme B is for saving of newlywed girls from death due to
dowry. Scheme C is planning for good health for senior citizen. Now twice the amount
spent on scheme C together with amount spent on scheme A is Rs.700 Crores .And three
times the amount spent on scheme A together with amount spent on scheme B and
scheme C is Rs.1200 Crores. Find the amount spent on each scheme using matrices.

lakhs. School B wants to spend Rs.1.54 lakhs lakhs to award its 4, 1 and 3 teachers on the
respective values (by giving the same award money for the three values as before). If the
total amount of award for one prize on each value is Rs.57,000 using matrices find the
award money for each value.
14.A School wants to reward the students participating in co-curricular activities (category I)
and with 100% attendance (category II) brave students (category III) in a function.The
