- Explain ANOVA and its applications. ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) is a test that checks whether the means of three or more groups are equal, by comparing the variation between g... 1
- What are measures of dispersion? Explain. Measures of dispersion tell how spread out the data values are around a central value; the main ones are range, quartile deviation, mean dev... 1
- Define probability and explain its significance in statistical inference with examples. Probability is a number between 0 and 1 that measures how likely an event is; in statistical inference it is the tool that lets us draw conc... 1
- Explain types of correlation and correlation coefficient. Give suitable examples. Correlation measures how two variables change together; its strength and direction are given by the correlation coefficient r , which lies b... 1
- A = [aij]mxn is a square matrix, if (A) m < n (B) m > n (C) m-n (D) None of these. For a square matrix m = n. 2
- sin[ \(\frac { π }{ 3 }\)-sin-1(-\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)) ] is equal to (A) \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) Answer: (D) 1 The principal value branch of sin⁻¹ is [-π/2, π/2] , and sin(-π/6) = -1/2 . So sin⁻¹(-1/2) = -π/6. Then sin[π/3 + π/6] = sinπ/... 1
- cos-1\(\left(-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)\) Answer: cos⁻¹(-√(3)/2) = 5π/6 The principal value branch of cos⁻¹ is [0, π] . We know cosπ/6 = √(3)/2 . Using cos(π - θ) = -cosθ : cos(π - π... 1
- Find the principal value of tan-1(-1) Answer: tan⁻¹(-1) = -π/4 The principal value branch of tan⁻¹ is (-π/2, π/2) . Since tanπ/4 = 1 and tan is an odd function, tan(-π/4) = -1. -... 1
- sec-1\(\left(-\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)\) Answer: sec⁻¹(-2/√(3)) = 5π/6 The principal value branch of sec⁻¹ is [0, π] - \π/2\ . We know secπ/6 = 2/√(3) . For a negative value we use... 1
- tan-1(1) + cos-1(-\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)) + sin-1(\(\frac { -1 }{ 2 }\)) Answer: 3π/4 Use the principal value branches: tan⁻¹(1) = π/4 , since tanπ/4 = 1 and π/4in(-π/2, π/2) . cos⁻¹(-1/2) = π - cos⁻¹1/2 = π - π/3... 1
- Show that the function f : R → { x ∈ R : – 1 – x < 1} defined by f(x) = \(\frac{x}{1+|x|}\) x ∈ R is one-one and onto. (i) Let x >0, f(x) = x / 1+x So, f(x1) = f(x2) ⇒ fracx₁1+x₁ = fracx₂1+x₂ or x1(1 + x2) = x2(1 + x1) or x1 + x1x2 = x2 + x1x2 ⇒ x1 = x2 When... 2
- Give examples of two functions f : N → Z and g : Z → Z such that gof is injective but g is not injective. Example: f(x) = x for f:mathbbN→mathbbZ , and g(x) = |x| for g:mathbbZ→mathbbZ . g is not injective: g(-1) = |-1| = 1 and g(1) = 1 , so two... 1
- Give examples of two functions f : N → N and g : N → N such that gof is onto but f is not onto. Example: f(x) = x + 1 and g(x) = begincases x - 1, & x > 1 \\ 1, & x = 1 endcases f is not onto: f(x) = x + 1 ≥ 2 for every x in mathbbN , s... 1
- Given a non-empty set X, consider the binary operaion * : P(X) x P(X) → P(X), given by A * B = A ∩ B We have * : P(X) x P(X) → P(X) given by A* B = A ∩B ∴ X * A = X ∩ A = A * X = A for all A. ∴ X is an identity element. Let I is an other ide... 2
- Let A = {1,2,3}. Then, the number of relations containing {1, 2} and {1, 3} which are reflexive, symmetric but not A) 1 There is only one relation containing (1, 2) and (1, 3), which is reflexive and symmetric but not transitive is {1, 1}. 2
- Let f : R → R be the Signum Function defined as f(x) = f : R → R, the Signum Function is defined as f(x) = \beginarrayll 1, & x>0 \\ 0, & x=0 \\ -1, & x<0 endarray. 2
- Number of binary operations on the set (1, 2} having 1 as the identity element is (A) 10 (B) 16 (C) 20 (D) 8 Answer: Only 2 such binary operations exist, so none of the given options is mathematically correct. (The textbook key gives (B) 16, which i... 1
- Determine whether or not each of the definitions of * given below gives a binary operation. In the event that (i) a > b, a * b = a – b > 0 which belongs to Z+. But if a < b, a * b = a – b < 0 which does not belong to Z+. ⇒ given operation * is not a... 2
