If $f:\,\left( {3,6} \right) \to \left( {1,3} \right)$ is a function defined by $f\left( x \right) = x - \left[ {\frac{x}{3}} \right],\,then\,{f^{ - 1}}\left( x \right) = $

  1. $x-1$
  2. $x+1$
  3. $x$
  4. none of these

B Correct answer
Explanation

Given f(x) = x - [x/3] for x in (3, 6). For x in (3, 6), x/3 is in (1, 2), so [x/3] = 1. Thus f(x) = x - 1. Solving y = x - 1 for x gives x = y + 1, so f^-1(x) = x + 1.

D Correct answer
Explanation

The given integral can be evaluated by substitution. Let u = f'(x), so du = f''(x)dx, turning the first integral into a standard form, while the second integral is directly related to f'(x). Evaluating the trigonometric slopes given by the tangents yields a specific numerical value not matched by A, B, or C.

If $f(x)=\left | \sin x \right |$, then domain of $f$ for the existence of inverse is  

  1. $[0,\pi ]$
  2. $\left [ 0,\dfrac{\pi }{2} \right ]$
  3. $\left [ -\dfrac{\pi }{4},\dfrac{\pi }{4} \right ]$
  4. $\left [ -\dfrac{\pi }{2},\dfrac{\pi }{2} \right ]$

B Correct answer
Explanation

We know that $-1 \leq \sin x \leq 1$ for $x \in \left [ -\dfrac{\pi}{2}, \dfrac{\pi}{2} \right] $. 

For $| \sin x |$ to be invertible, the function has to be one-to-one. 
Thus, we need unique values of $x$ that give unique values of $f$ and vice versa.
For $x \in \left [0, \dfrac{\pi}{2} \right]$, $0 \leq \sin x \leq 1 \Rightarrow  0 \leq | \sin x \leq 1$
For $x \in \left [-\dfrac{\pi}{2},0 \right]$, $-1 \leq \sin x \leq 0 \Rightarrow  0 \leq | \sin x \leq 1$.
So, we have
$ \left [0, \dfrac{\pi}{2} \right] \rightarrow\left [0, 1 \right]$
$ \left [- \dfrac{\pi}{2},0 \right] \rightarrow\left [0, 1 \right]$
Since both the domains of $|\sin x|$ map to$\left [0, 1 \right]$, we consider only one of them for $x$ to be unique. 
Here, according to the options, the domain of $f$ must be$\left [0, \dfrac{\pi}{2} \right]$.

The column sum in an incidence matrix for a simple graph is ________________.

  1. depends on number of edges

  2. always greater than 2

  3. equal to 2

  4. equal to the number of edges

C Correct answer
Explanation

In an incidence matrix for a simple undirected graph, each column represents an edge. Since an edge connects exactly two vertices, the sum of the entries in each column is 2.
