Then the nth term of an Arithmetic progression is mathematically defined as: --->> Tn = a + (n - 1)d Sn = n/2{a + 1} Tn = a + (n - 1) Sn = 1/2{a + 1} 3. State the degree of the polynomials, X3 + 2X2 – 3X +1 --->> 3 2 1 None of the options 4. Which of the following is a property of set? The collection of object must be well defined The order in which objects are arranged in a set is immaterial The object in a set must be distinct --->> All of the options 5. What is the difference between equation and function? An equation tells us in a clear term the nature of relationship between one variable and the other variable(s) but a function may not be explicit enough. An equation and a function is that for an equation each of the values of independent variable should give a corresponding value of dependent variable, this is not compulsory for a function All equations are functions but not all functions are equations --->> All of the options 6. Which of the following is one of classification of sets? --->> Infinite set Union Prime Element 7. It took 10 men 40 hours to clean up the warehouse of a certain company.

The determinant of a matrix equals to the determinant of its transpose If all the elements of any row or column are zero, the determinant is zero. If two rows or columns are identical or proportional or linearly dependent, the determinant is zero. --->> All of the options 9. Which of the following is a basic identity in matrix operation? Commutative law in matrix Distributive law in matrix Associative law in matrix --->> All of the options 10. Simplify the factorial, 12! /3!5! --->> 665280 655280 644280 622280
