TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 2

If R is the radius of convergence of any power series then what is the interval of convergence?

Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 2

If R is the radius of convergence of then the series converges when |x| < R i.e., when - R < x < R
So interval of convergence is (- R, R)
(1) is correct

TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 3

Which of the following statement is NOT true?

Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 3

Explanation:

From properties of uniform continuity we can say that (1) and (2) are true.

Also product of two uniformly continuous need not be uniformly continuous.

For example f(x) = x, g(x) = x both are uniformly continuous on , but the product f(x)g(x) = x2 is not uniformly continuous on .

(3) is also true

We know that sin x is uniformly continuous on [0, ∞] and and composition of two uniformly continuous function is uniformly continuous so f(x) = sin(sin x) is not uniformly continuous on [0, ∞].

(4) is NOT true.

TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 4

Consider the linear programming problem (LPP)
Maximize Z = -x1 + 4x2,
subject to 3x1 - x2 ≥ -3,
-0.3x1 + 1.2x2 ≤ 3,
x1, x2 ≥ 0. then which of the following is correct?

Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 4

Rewriting the constraints:
1. ⟶ equivalently:
2. (no change needed)
3. (Non-negativity constraints)
To check if the feasible region exists, we analyze the intersection of constraints:
Convert inequality to equality:
----------------(1)
This represents a line in the first quadrant
Convert to equality:

--------------(2)
This represents another line.
By checking whether these two lines enclose a bounded region in the first quadrant, we determine feasibility
Substituting x1 = 0:
From x2 = 3x1 + 3, we get x2 = 3
From x2 = 0.25x1 + 2.5, we get x2 = 2.5 
Since both constraints are satisfied at some non-negative values, the feasible region exists
Since the constraints restrict x1 and x2 to a finite region, the LPP is bounded
Since the LPP is bounded and feasible, an optimal solution exists and is finite
⇒ The LPP has a finite optimal solution
Hence Option (4) is the correct answer.

TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 5

Which of the following statements is necessarily true for a commutative ring R with unity?

Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 5

We can answer this through counter-examples.

  • To discard Option 1 and Option 3 we take R = (Z, +, .) where pZ is maximal for any prime p.
  • To discard Option 4 we take R = (F,+, .), where F is a field. And, a field is a commutative ring with unity where {0} is the only prime ideal.
  • So, Option 2 is the only correct option. In fact, R = (Z₆, +₆, ·₆) has exactly two maximal ideals, M = {0,2,4} and N = {0,3}
TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 6

If C is a skew-symmetric matrix of order n and X is n × 1 column matrix, then XT CX is a

Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 6
Here CT = -C.

Also (AB)T=BTAT

Taking transpose of XTCX:

i.e. ⇒ Let XTCX = A

Transpose of A ⇒ AT = (XTCX)T

= XTCT(XT)T (using (AB)T=BTAT)

= XTCTX

= XT(-C)X = - XTCX = - A

XTCX + XTCX = 0

2XTCX = 0

XTCX = 0

Therefore, XTCX is a null matrix.

TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 7

For the function f(z) = z2, the value of derivative at z = 4 is

Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 7

Concept Used:-
The rate of change of a particular function with respect to the variable in that function is called the derivative of the function. If we differentiate a function with respect to the variable of the function, then the result we get is called derivative of the function.
A necessary condition for the complex-valued function to be differentiable that derivative w.r.t zbar is Zero
Given information:-
Given function is
f(z) = z
2, Derivative of the function w.r.t zbar is zero
On differentiating the above function with respect to z we get,

Now the value of the derivative at z = 4 needs to be found out. Put 4 in place of z in the above derivative,
⇒ f'(z) = 2z
⇒ f'(z) = 2×(4)
⇒ f'(z) = 8
So, for the function f(z) = z
2, the value of the derivative at z = 4 is 8.
The correct option is 3.

TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 8

The minimum value of is

Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 8

Concept:

Method of finding the maxima & minima of z = f(x, y):

Step 1: Find for the given function

Step 2: Equate p & q to zero for obtaining stationary points (a, b).

Step 3: Calculate r, s, t at each stationary point (a, b).

Step 4:

i. If rt – s2 > 0 & r > 0 then f (x, y) has a minimum at (a, b) & the minimum value is f(a,b).

ii. If rt – s2 > 0 & r < 0 then f (x, y) has a maximum at (a, b) & the maximum value is f(a,b).

iii. If rt – s2 < 0 then f (x, y) has neither a maximum nor a minimum value at (a, b) & (a, b) is a saddle point.

iv. If rt – s2 = 0 & r < 0 then no conclusion by this method.

Calculation:

Given

f(x, y) =

Now, and

Putting and solving two equations we get

(x, y) = (a, a) or (-a, a)

Now at (a, a); ,

Hence, rt – s2 = 3 > 0 and r > 0, hence it has a minimum value at (a, a)

Now, at (a, -a); ,

Hence, rt – s2 = -5 < 0, hence it has neither minimum nor maximum at this point (a, -a)

Hence, (a, -a) is a saddle point

Minimum value is, f(a, a) = 3a2.

TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 9
Let us define a sequence (an)n∈ℕ of real numbers to be a Fibonacci-like sequence if an = an-1 + an-2 for n ≥ 3. What is the dimension of the ℝ-vector space of Fibonacci-like sequences?
Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 9

Concept:

The dimension of a vector space V is the cardinality (i.e., the number of vectors) of a basis of V over its base field.

Explanation:

Fibonacci-like sequence is

an = an-1 + an-2 for n ≥ 3

For n = 3

a3 = a2 + a1

a4 = a3 + a2

..................

So basis B = {(a1, 0, 0, 0, ...), (0, a2, 0, ...)}

Hence the dimension of the ℝ-vector space of Fibonacci-like sequences

= cardinality of basis = 2

(2) is correct

TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 10

The value of integral , where C is the circle |z| = 2 is

Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 10

where C is the circle |z| = 2
The function has two singularities (poles) at z = 1 and z = 4
z = 1 is inside the contour |z| = 2
z = 4 is outside the contour |z| = 2
Since contour integration only depends on the singularities inside the contour, we only consider the residue at z = 1
To find the residue of at z = 1 , we express it in the form:
Residue = limz→1 (z - 1)f(z)
Multiplying by (z - 1) , we get:
Substituting z = 1 :

By the residue theorem,


Thus, the correct answer is (-2πi)/3 
Hence Option (3) is the correct answer.

TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 11

The area of the portion of the surface z = x2 - y2 in R3 which lies inside the solid cylinder x2 + y2 ≤ 1 is

Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 11

We can parameterize the surface using x and y as parameters:
r(x, y) = <x, y, x² - y²>
Find the Partial Derivatives
∂r/∂x = <1, 0, 2x>
∂r/∂y = <0, 1, -2y>
∂r/∂x × ∂r/∂y = < -2x, 2y, 1>
||∂r/∂x × ∂r/∂y|| = √((-2x)² + (2y)² + 1²) = √(4x² + 4y² + 1)
The surface area (A) is given by the double integral over the region D in the xy-plane, which is the unit circle x2 + y2 ≤ 1:

Since the region of integration is a circle
Let x = rcosθ , y = rsinθ and dA = r dr dθ
The limits of integration are 0 to 1 for r and 0 to 2π for θ.

Let u = 4r² + 1, so du = 8r dr
When r = 0, u = 1, and when r = 1, u = 5

Now,

Therefore, the surface area is (π/6)(5√5 - 1)
Hence Option 3 is the correct answer.

TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 12

The specific integral of the equation (D2 - D'2 + D - D') Z = e2x+3y will be _______.

Detailed Solution for TN TRB PG Assistant Mock Test- 5 (Mathematics) - Question 12

Concept:
If Pde is of the form ϕ(D, D') z = e^(ax + by).
Then PI = 1 / ϕ(D, D') (e^(ax + by)) = 1 / ϕ(a, b)
Explanation:
(D² - D² + D - D') Z = e^(2x + 3y)
PI = 1 / (D² - D² + D - D') e^(2x + 3y)
PI = 1 / (4 - 9 + 2 - 3) e^(2x + 3y)
PI = -1 / 6 e^(2x + 3y)
Hence, (1) option is true

The Mean Value Theorem for Integrals states that if f is continuous on the closed interval [a, b], then there exists at least one number c in the open interval (a, b) such that:

∫from a to b f(x) dx = f(c) · (b - a)

This theorem guarantees the existence of at least one point c in the interior of the interval [a, b] where the value of the function f(c) multiplied by the length of the interval (b - a) gives the integral of f(x) over that interval

Explanation:

In the given statement, if f is the derivative of some function on the interval [a, b], then the Mean Value Theorem for Integrals applies.

According to this theorem, there exists a number c in the open interval (a, b) such that the integral of f(x) over the interval [a, b] is equal to f(c) multiplied by the length of the interval (b - a).

Hence, the correct option is: f(c) · (b - a)

Hence, The Correct Option is 2.
