GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 1

In numerous companies, workers are being substituted by automated systems to reduce costs. Nevertheless, many employees who are displaced due to automation will require government support to make ends meet, and the same companies that are terminating jobs will ultimately fund that support through higher taxes and unemployment insurance contributions.

Which of the following, if accurate, most bolsters the author’s argument?

Detailed Solution for GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 1

Situation: Corporations replace employees with automated equipment to save money, but, through increased taxes and unemployment insurance, those corporations must pay for the government assistance programs the laid-off employees then need to survive. (The same as the previous item).

Reasoning: What information strengthens the author's argument? By stating that the need for govemment-assistance programs will rise, the author clearly assumes that the laid-off employees will not find work and will have to rely on such programs. If other workers who have lost jobs to automation have been unable to find work, then the argument is strengthened because it shows that the author's assumption has proven to be true.

A. Correct. This statement properly identifies a factor that strengthens the author's argument.

B. The argument is about the corporations that do automate, not about those that do not, and thus this statement is irrelevant.

C. The fact that such costs are paid and will be paid by all corporations, whether or not they automate, weakens theauthor's argument by suggesting that the increases costs resulting from automation will be spread over a wider group.

D. This statement repeats that the corporations will initially experience lowered costs for employee wages' it does not strengthen the argument.

GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 2

A circus tent has a cylindrical section that rises to a height of 3 m, topped by a conical section. The diameter of the tent measures 105 m, and the slant height of the cone is 53 m. Determine the total area of canvas needed.

Detailed Solution for GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 2

Radius = 105 / 2 = 52.5 m
h = 3 m
l = 53 m

Cylinder curved surface area = 2πrh
= 2 × (22/7) × (105/2) × 3 = 990 m²

For conical part: r = 52.5 m, l = 53 m

Cone curved surface area = πrl
= (22/7) × (105/2) × 53 = 8745 m²

Total area = 990 + 8745 = 9735 m²

GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 3

Average of Rubber production of 2003 and 2006 is
= (250 + 280) / 2 = 265

Average of Demand of rubber 2003 and 2006
= (180 + 350) / 2 = 265

2014:
(210 + 95 + 192 + 169) / 4 = 166.5

2015:
(215 + 120 + 203 + 204) / 4 = 185.5

2011:
(180 + 80 + 160 + 125) / 4 = 136

So, 2015 is highest.

GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 10

Imagine we have integers ranging from 1 to 1000 organized in a binary search tree, and we aim to locate the number 363. Which of the following sequences could not represent the order of nodes evaluated during this search?

Detailed Solution for GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 10

Option (B) is not the sequence of nodes explored because we take the left child from the 911 node, and yet somehow manages to get to the 912 node which cannot belong the left subtree of 911 because it is greater.

GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 11

Which of the following statements is/are accurate?

S1: In a binary search tree, if a node has two children, then its successor will not have a left child, and its predecessor will not have a right child.

S2: Consider a binary search tree T with distinct keys. If node 'x' in T has an empty right subtree and possesses a successor 'y', then 'y' is the nearest ancestor of 'x' whose left child is also an ancestor of 'x' (remember that every node is considered an ancestor of itself).

Detailed Solution for GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 11

S1: Suppose the node ‘x’ has two children, then its successor is the minimum element of the BST rooted at x.right. If it had a left child, then it wouldn’t be the minimum element, so it must not have a left child. Similarly, the predecessor must have the maximum element of the left subtree, so it cannot have a right child.

S2: First, we establish that ‘y’ must be an ancestor of ‘x’. If ‘y’ weren’t an ancestor of ‘x,’ then let Z denote the first common ancestor of x and y. By the binary search tree property, x < Z < y, so ‘y’ cannot be the successor of ‘x’.

Next, observe that y.left must be an ancestor of ‘x’ because if it weren’t, then y.right would be an ancestor of x, implying that x>y. Finally, suppose that ‘y’ is not the lowest ancestor of x whose left child is also an ancestor of ‘x’. Let Z denote the lowest ancestor. Then ‘Z’ must be in the left subtree of y, which implies Z < Y, contradicting the fact that y is the successor of x.

GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 12

If the letters of the word “ADDRESS” are arranged randomly in a sequence, what is the likelihood that the two vowels are positioned next to each other?

Detailed Solution for GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 12

The word “ADDRESS” has seven letters and can be arranged in 7! number of ways. 
Hence, the total outcome = 7! 
Now, “A” and “E” can be arranged in 6! ways in the row and 2! ways within themselves. 
Thus, the probability of vowels coming together will be
 6!*2!/7! = 2/7

GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 13

GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 15

Marketing predicts that a new device for analyzing soil samples will be categorized as very successful, moderately successful, or unsuccessful, with probabilities of 0.3, 0.6, and 0.1, respectively. The anticipated annual revenue for a very successful, moderately successful, or unsuccessful product is 10,000,00, 85,000,00, and 21,00,000, respectively. What is the expected yearly revenue for this product?


Detailed Solution for GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 15

Let X = yearly revenue of the product

E(X) = (10,00,000 × 0.3) + (5,00,000 × 0.6) + (1,00,000 × 0.1)
= 3,00,000 + 3,00,000 + 10,000
= 6,10,000

*Answer can only contain numeric values
GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 16

Given a set A = {1,2,3,5,6}, what is the total number of ordered sequences that can be formed by selecting 4 elements without any repetition?


*Answer can only contain numeric values
GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 17

Consider a 3x3 matrix A with eigenvalues 2, 3, and 4, and let I denote the identity matrix of order 3. If the equation A-1 = (A2 - 9A) / (2k 13I/k) holds for some integer k ≠ 0, what is the value of k?


Detailed Solution for GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 17

The characteristic equation of A is given by

(λ − 2)(λ − 3)(λ − 4) = 0

(λ² − 3λ − 2λ + 6)(λ − 4) = 0

(λ² − 5λ + 6)(λ − 4) = 0

λ³ − 4λ² − 5λ² + 20λ + 6λ − 24 = 0

λ³ − 9λ² + 26λ − 24 = 0

⇒  A³ − 9A² + 26A − 24 I = 0

24I = A³ − 9A² + 26A

multiplying A⁻¹ on both sides

A⁻¹= (A² − 9A + 26 I) / 24

= 1/24 (A² − 9A) + 13 I / 12

⇒ K = 12

GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 29

Consider a connected undirected graph G that consists of 200 vertices and 400 edges. The weight of its minimum cost spanning tree is 600. If the weight of each edge is raised by 5, what will be the new weight of the minimum spanning tree?


Detailed Solution for GATE Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Mock Test - 4 - Question 29

No of edges in MST of G (V, E) = V − 1
Since we have |V| = 200, so no of edges in MST = 200 − 1 = 199

Since each edge weight is increased by 5,
So total weight increased = 199 × 5 = 995

Total weight of MST = 600 + 995 = 1595
