A course of action is a step or administrative decision to be taken for improvement, follow-up or further action in regard to the problem, policy, etc. On the basis of the information given in the statement, you have to assume everything in the statement to be true and then decide which of the suggested courses of action logically follow(s) for pursuing.

Statement: Many political activists have decided to stage demonstrations and block traffic movement in the city during peak hours to protest against the steep rise in prices of essential commodities.

Courses of action:

(A) The Govt. should immediately ban all forms of agitations in the country.

(B) The police authority of the city should deploy additional forces all over the city to help traffic movement in the city.

(C) The state administration should carry out preventive arrests of the known criminals staying in the city.

Detailed Solution for GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 4

GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 5

In a class, 40% of the students enrolled for Math and 70% enrolled for Economics. If 15% of the students enrolled for both Math and Economics, what % of the students of the class did not enroll for either of the two subjects?

Detailed Solution for GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 5
We know that (A U B) = A + B — (A n B), where (A U B) represents the set of people who have enrolled for at least one of the two subjects Math or Economics and (A n B) represents the set of people who have enrolled for both the subjects Math and Economics.

(AUB)=A+B—(AnB) * (A u B) = 40 + 70 — 15 = 95%

That is 95% of the students have enrolled for at least one of the two subjects Math or Economics.

Therefore, the balance (100 — 95)% = 5% of the students have not enrolled for either of the two subjects.

GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 7

The collection may improve only if the govemment raises taxes.

  1. Whenever the taxes are raised, the collections improve.

  2. The collections never improve when taxes are raised.

  3. The collections will not improve if the taxes are not raised.

Which of the following can be logically inferred from the above statement?

Detailed Solution for GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 7
The use of the word 'only if' implies that the condition that the taxes be raised is 'necessary' but the use of the word 'may' implies that it is not 'sufficient' for the collections to improve. In other words, the sentence implies that collections are not going to improve without tax raise, while if taxes were indeed raised, it may or may not improve. Consequent to this, the evaluations of the three inferences are

1. data inadequate

2. definitely false

3. definitely true

GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 8

Let T : R3 → R3 be the linear transformation such that Y(1, 0, 1) = (0, 1 , –1) and T(2, 1, 1)= (3, 2, 1) Then T(–1, –2, 1)

Detailed Solution for GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 8

Since T : R3 → R3

such that T(2, 1, 1) = (3, 2, 1) 

T(1, 0, 1) = (0, 1 , –1) 

But let (–1, –2 ,1) = a (2, 1, 1) + b(1, 0, 1) 

on solving – 1 = 2a + b 

– 2 = a + 0 

a+ b = 1

⇒ b = 3 

so on applying transformation T on (1) bothsides 

T(1, -2, 1) = T(–2, (2, 1,1) + 3(1, 0, 1) = –2 T(2, 1, 1) + 3T(1, 0, 1) 

= –2 (3, 2, 1)+ 3(0, 1, –1) = (–6, –1, –5) 

GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 9

The function sinx (1 + cosx) at x = π/3 is

Detailed Solution for GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 9

Let f(x) = Sin x ( 1 + cos x) 

⇒ f'(x) = cosx (1 + cosx) + sinx (–sinx) = cosx + cos2x – sin2

= cosx + cos2

f"(x) = – sin x – 2sin2x = – (sinx + 2sin2x) 

for maximum or minimum value of f(x), f'(x) = 0 

therefore cos x + cos2 x = 0 

⇒ cos x = – cos2x

⇒ cosx = –cos (π ± 2x) 

⇒ x = π ± 2x 

⇒ x = ��3 , –π 

Now 

Therefore f(x) is maximum at x =π/3. 

GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 10

Let S be a closed surface and let denote the position vector of any point (x,y,z) measured from an origin O. then  is equal to (if O lies inside S).

GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 12

Let A be an n-by-n matrix with coefficients in F, having rows{a1, ..., an). Then which one of the statement is true for the matrix A?

Detailed Solution for GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 12

By a well known result we know that if A be an n × n matrix with coefficients in F, having rows {a1, a2, ....., an }, then the following statements are true. 

 (a) if A’ be a matrix obtained from A by an elementary row operation (interchanging two rows). Then 

 D(A’) = – D(A) 

 (b) if A’ be a matrix obtained from a by an elementary row operation (replacing the row ai by λaj , with λ ∈ F, i ≠ j). Then 

D(A’) = D(A) 

(c) if A’ be a matrix obtained from A by an elementary row operation (replacing ai by µai , for µ ≠ 0 in F). Then 

 D(A’) = µD(A)

i.e. all the three options are correct.

and x,y ∈ w,   α, β ∈ FE 

then x,y∈ L(w) 

x,y are linear combination of members of w. 

⇒ αx + βy is a linear combination of members of w 

⇒ αx + βy ∈ L(w) 

⇒ αx + βy ∈w 

⇒ w is a subspace of v. 

GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 14

The function f : ℝ ℝ → satisfied  for all x, y ∈ and some constant c ∈ Then, 

Detailed Solution for GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 14

The definition of lipschitz function is given by 

Let A R ⊆ and let f : A → ℝ if there exists a constant k > 0 such that 

so we have lipschitz function in our question asked (as it satisfies lipschitz condition) now we will show uniform continuity of lipschitz function 

Since 

The given ε > 0 we can take δ = ε/k if x. y ∈ ℝ satisfy ��-�� < δ

then, 

Therefore f is uniformly continuous on R 

But for differentiability

Since 

⇒ f is differentiable at y ∀ ∈ x,y ℝ

⇒ f is differentiable function to 0

GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 18

Number of homomorphism from ℤ8 ⊕ ℤ2, onto ℤ4 ⊕ ℤ4, (Answer Should be integer) _______.


Detailed Solution for GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 18

Clearly ℤ8 ⊕ ℤ2 = ℤ4 ⊕ ℤ4

If there exist an onto homomorphism from ℤ8⊕ℤ2, to ℤ4⊕ℤ4, then ℤ8⊕ℤ2≈ℤ4⊕ℤ4

But this is not possible since ℤ8⊕ℤcontains an element of order 8 but ℤ4⊕ℤ4 does not have.

⇒ There is no onto homomorphism between groups ℤ8⊕ℤ2 and ℤ4⊕ℤ4.

GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 20

If R→R is given by f(x) = x3 + x2f'(1) + xf''(2) + f'''(3) for all x in R. then f(2) - f(1) is

Detailed Solution for GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 20

f(x) = x3 + x2f'(1) + xf''(2) + f'''(3)

f(0) = f'''(3)

f(2) = 8 + 4f'(1) + 2f''(2) + f'''(3)

f(1) = 1 + f'(1) + f''(2) + f'''(3)

Then f(2) - f(1) = 7 + 3f'(1) + f''(2)

Now, f'(x) = 3x2 + 2x f;(1) + f''(2)

f''(x) = 6x + 2f'(1)

f'''(x) = 6   

f'''(3) = 6                  ...(1)

f''(2) = 12 + 2f'(1)        .....(2)

f'(1) = 3 + 2f'(1) + f''(2)

⇒ -f'(1) = 3 + 12 + 2f'(1)

⇒ -15 = 3f'(1)

 f'(1) = -5  and f''(2) = 2

So, f(2) -f(1) = 7 + 3*(-5) + 2 

= 7 - 15 + 2

= -6 = -f(0)

GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 24

Which of the following are the wrong basis of the subspace spanned by the vectors α1= (1, 2, 3), α2 = (2, 1, –1),α3 = (1, –1, –4), α4 = (4, 2, –2)? 

Detailed Solution for GATE Mathematics Mock Test - 4 - Question 24

given α4 = 2 αso that the 

vectors α2 and α4 are linearly dependent 

If S1 = {α1, α2, α3} then 

by subspace of R3 spanned by S1 is the same as that spanned by S. 

There is no real number c s.t. 

α1 = cα2 therefore the vectors α1 and α2 are linearly independent.

Now,examine whether the vector α3 lie in the subspace of R3 spanned by the vector α1 and α2 or not

Let α3 = aα1 + bα2

where a, b ∈ R

then (1, –1, –4) = a(1, 2, 3) + b(2, 1, –1)

a + 2b = 1 ................, ,... (i) 

2a + b = –1 .............. (ii) 

3a – b = –4 ............. (iii) 

Solving the eq. (i) and (ii) we get a = –1, b = 1 these values of a and b also satisfy the eq. (iii). 

so α3 = –α1 + α2

thus the vector α3 has be expressed as a linear combination of α1 and α2 so that the subspace of R3 spanned by the vectors α1, α2 and α3

Hence T = {α1, α2} is a linear independent subset of S which spans the same subspace of R3 as a is spanned by S.

y1 = A1x + A + B1x–1 – Bx–2........................(5) 

Choose A and B s.t. 

A1x + B1x–1 = 0 ......................(6) 

then by eq (4) we get 

y1 = A – Bx–2 .................(7) 

Differentiating (7) 

y2 = A1 – (B1x–2 – 2Bx–3) ................(8) 

using (4), (7) and (8), (1) reduces to 

A1 – B1x–2 = ex  ...............(9)
