Introduction
To determine the ratio in which the line y - x + 2 = 0 divides the line segment joining the points (3, -1) and (8, 9), we first need to find the coordinates of the intersection point.
Step 1: Find the Equation of the Line Segment
The slope of the line segment connecting (3, -1) and (8, 9) can be calculated as follows:
- Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) =

Veda Institute answered
Consider the binary operation on X, a∗b=a+b+4, for a,b∈X. We are asked to determine the properties satisfied by this operation.
This operation satisfies the properties of an abelian group since it is closed under addition, associative, has an identity element (0), and every element has an inverse.

  • a)
    Stoke’s theorem
  • b)
    Gauss divergence theorem
  • c)
    Cauchy’s theorem
  • d)
    None of the above

Veda Institute answered
Green's theorem gives the relationship between a line integral around a simple closed curve, C, in a plane and a double integral over the plane region R bounded by C. It is a special two-dimensional case of the more general Stokes' theorem.
Stokes’ Theorem gives the relationship between a line integral around a simple closed curve, C, in space, and a surface integral over a piecewise, smooth surface.
Green’s theorem in its “curl form”.
where F = P(x,y) i + Q(x,y) j and dr = dx i + dy j
is as follows: (curl form of Green’s Theorem)
c∫ F(x,y) . dr = c∫ F . T ds = r∫ ∫ curl F dA
where curl F is the z-component of curl F = curl F . k

f T = |  eigen values of B are in Z}, then which of the following statement(s) is true?
Let T = {B ∈ M3 x 3(ℝ) | eigenvalues of B are integers}. Which of the following statements is/are true?
  • a)
     If B-1 exist for B∈ T, then B-1 ∈ T
  • b)
    There exists B ∈ M3 x 3(ℝ) \ T such that B-1 ∈ T.
  • c)
    If B ∈ T, then B ∈ M3 x 3(ℤ).
  • d)
    If B ∈ M3 x 3(ℚc), then B ∉ T
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

  • For statement A, if B is invertible and its eigenvalues are integers, B-1's eigenvalues are the reciprocals of B's eigenvalues. These may not be integers, contradicting the condition for B-1 to be in T.
  • Statement B is true. An example is B = I, the identity matrix, which is in M3 x 3(ℝ). Here, B-1 = B, and both have integer eigenvalues.
  • Statement C is false because a matrix in T can have integer eigenvalues without having all integer entries.
  • Statement D is false. A matrix can be in M3 x 3(ℚc) and still have integer eigenvalues.

If f(x) is a continuous function defined for (where ℚ is the set of all rational number). If f(2) = 1 then f(1.532) is (Answer should be integer) _______.
Correct answer is '1'. Can you explain this answer?

Veda Institute answered
Given that fix) is continuous function for all x ∈ [1,3].
Also f (x) ∈ ℚ, hencef (x) must be constant function over ℝ.
Since f (2) = 1, then f (x) =1 Vx ∈ [1.3]
So f(1.532) = 1

Integrate(x^2/x^4 x^2 1)dx?

Akash Patel answered  •  Nov 03, 2023
Integration of x^2/(x^4 * x^2 + 1)dx

To integrate the given expression, we can use the method of substitution. Let's consider the substitution u = x^2. This implies du/dx = 2x, and solving for dx gives dx = du/(2x).

Now, let's rewrite the integral using this substitution:

∫(x^2/(x^4 * x^2 + 1))dx = ∫(u/(u^2 * x^2 + 1))(du/(2x))
