Which of the following is not an exact differential?
  • a)
  • b)
  • c)
    xdy - ydx
  • d)
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Veda Institute answered  •  5 hours ago


∴ expressions in (a), (b) and (d; are exact.
Since the expression
xdy - ydx
in (c) can not be expressed as du for some function u of x and y, therefore the expression in (c) is not exact.

We are given that the linear transformation T : R3 ---> R3 defined by
We need to determine the rank of the linear transformation T.
Let (x, y, z) ∈ ker T
ThenT(x, y, z) = (0, 0, 0)
Using the definition of linear transformation, we get,

implies y = 0, z = 0 and x is arbitrary Therefore, ker T = {( x, y, z ) : y = 0, z = 0 and x is arbitrary}
Hence, Nullify of T= 1
Using Rank Nullity theorem, we get Rank T= dim R3 - Nullity T

we need to determine the matrix of linear transformation T w.r.t. standard basis of R3 and the basis {(1, 0), (1 ,1 } of R2. since {(1 ,0 ,0) , (0,1,0) (0,0,1)} be the standard basis of R3, therefore,

We are given that linear transformation

We need to determine Rank and Nullity of T.
Let (x,y, z, u) ∈ ker T
Then T(x, y, z, u) = (0, 0, 0, 0)
Using the definition of linear transformation we get
(x,y, 0, 0) = (0, 0, 0, 0)
implies x = 0, y = 0, z and u are arbitrary
Therefore,

Hence, Nullity of T = 2
Using Rank Nullity theorem, we get

We are given that a linear tansformation T : R3---> R3 defined by T(x, y, z) = (x - y , y + 3 z, x + 2y).
We need to find T-1.
Let (x, y, z) ∈ ker T. Then
T(x,y, z) = (0, 0, 0)
Using the definition of T, we get
(x -y,y + 3z, x + 2y) = (0, 0, 0) Comparing the components on both sides, we get
x - y =0 , y + 3z = 0, x +2y = 0
Solving for x, y and z, we get
x = 0, y = 0 and z = 0
Hence, ker T= {(0, 0, 0)}, implies T is one-one.
Since T : R3 —> R3 is a linear tansformation and one-one. Hence, T is onto.
Therefore, T-1 exist.
Let (a,b,c) be the image of (x, y, z) under T-1.
Then
T-1(x, y, z) = (a, b,c)
Implies (x, y, z) = T(a, b, c)
Using the definition of T, we get
(x, y, z) = (a - b, b + 3c, a +2b)
Comparing the components on both sides, we get
x =a - b, y = b + 3c, z = a + 2b
Solving for a, b and c, we get

Therefore, T-1(x,y, z)

Solution for the system defined by the set of equations 4y + 3z = 8; 2x - z = 2 and 3x + 2y = 5 is

We need to determine the solution for the system of equation

This system of equation may be written in matrix form as,

Reduce this system of equation to echelon form using the operations
"R2 ⇔ R1". This operations yields

and also applying "R3 → 2R3 - 3R1" which yields

again, "R1→ R3 - R2 " we get

Here the coefficient matrix

Since, the rank of coefficient matrix ≠ the rank of augmented matrix.
Therefore, the solution does not exist.

We are given that the eigen vectors o f the matrix  are and . We need to find the value o f a + b. The characteristic equation o f the given matrix is, |A - λI| = 0

or (1 - λ)(2 - λ) = 0 or 
λ = 1,2
Put λ = 1 in the equation [ A- λI ] X= 0

or a = 0 and also put X = 2 in the equation [A - λI] X= 0

Now, a + b = 0 + 1/2
a + b = 1/2

Veda Institute answered  •  16 hours ago
We are given that T1 : Rn —> Rm  and T2 : Rm —> Rn be linear transformation such that T1T2 is bijective, where n ≠ m
Thus, T1T2 ---> Rm ---> Rn is a linear transformation given by
(T1T2) (n) = T1(T2(n))
Since T1T2 is bijective. Therefore, T1T2 is non-singular and hence
Rank (T1T2) = m
But Rank (T1T2) < min Rank {T1T2} Therefore,m ≤ min Rank {T1T2}
Case I : If m ≤ n, Then rank of both T1 and T2 will be m.
Thus, we get
Rank (T1) = Rank (T2) = m
Case II : If m ≥ n. Then since T1 is n x m matrix. Therefore, its rank cannot exceed n. Similarly, Rank T2 cannot exceed n. Thus, we get m ≤ n. Therefore m = n.

Let T : R3---> R3 be def ined by T (x1, x2, x3) = (x1 - x2, x1 - x2, 0).
and N(T) and R(T) denote the null space and the range space of T respectively.
Let (x1, x2, x3) ∈ ker T.
Then
T(x1 x2, x3) = (0, 0, 0)
using the definition of T, we get
(x1 - x2, x1 - x2, 0) = (0, 0, 0)
Implies x1 = x2, x3 is arbitrary.
Therefore,ker T= {(x1, x2, x3) : x1, x3 arbitrary}
Hence, nullity of T = 2
and Rank of T = 3 - 2 = 1.

We need  to find T-1
Let (x, y, z) ∈ ker T
then T(x, y, z) =(0, 0, 0)
Using the definition of linear transformation, we get 
(x1 + x2, x2 + x3, x3 + x4) = (0, 0, 0)
Comparing the components of the coordinates, we get
x1 + x2 = 0
x2 + x3 = 0
x3 + x1 = 0
Implies, x1 = 0, x2 = 0 and x3 = 0
Therefore, ker T = {(0,0,0)} , hence, T is one-one.
Since T is a linear transformation from R3 to R3 but R3 is a three dimensional (finite dimensional) vector space.
Hence, T is onto and therefore, T-1 must exist.
Let (x, y, z) be the image of (a,b,c) under T-1,
Therefore T-1(a ,b ,c ) = (x,y,z) Implies, T{x, y, z) = (a, b , c ) Using the definition of linear transformation, we get
(x + y , y + z ,z + x) = (a , b, c) Comparing the components of the co-ordinates, we get
x + y = a
y + z = b
z + x - c
Solving for x, y and z, we get

Hence,T-1(a, b, c)

Let V be the vector space of polynomial functions of degree three or less. Let the ordered basis for V consisting of the functions
