SECTION-B
11. The specimen of copper wires drawn form a large lot have the following breaking strength
(in kg. weight) :
578, 572, 570, 568, 572, 578, 570, 572, 596, 544
Test (using t-statistic) whether the mean breaking strength of the lot may be taken to be 578
kg. weight (Test at 5% level of significance and table value of t = 2.262 at 9 d.f.).
12. Consider B. Tech. class with 45 female students and 55 male students. Only 25 females
have cleared a statistical exam whereas 30 males have cleared the same exam. On the basis
of above information, answer the following questions :
a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen student is a male?
b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen student has cleared the exam?
c) What is the approximate probability that a randomly chosen student has cleared the
exam, given the student is female?
13. Find the number of terms of the exponential series such that their sum gives the value of ex
correct to six decimal places at x = 1.
14. Find a real root of 2x ? log10 x = 7 correct to four decimal places using iteration method.
15. In the table below, the values of y are consecutive terms of a series of which 23.6 is the
6th term. Find the first and tenth terms of the series :
x :
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
y :
4.8
8.4
14.5
23.6
36.2
52.8
73.9
SECTION-C
16. From the table below, for what value of x, y is minimum? Also find this value of y.
x :
3
4
5
6
7
8
y :
0.205
0.240
0.259
0.262
0.250
0.224
17. Solve 10x ? 7y + 3z + 5u = 6,
?6x + 8y ? z?4u = 5,
3x + y + 4z + 11u = 2,
5x ? 9y ? 2z + 4u = 7 by Gauss-Jordan method.
18. Apply Runge-kutta method to find approximate value of y for x = 0.2, in steps of 0.1,
if dy/dx = x + y2, given that y = 1 where x = 0.
NOTE : Disclosure of Identity by writing Mobile No. or Making of passing request on any
