Adj A = |A| I Clearly |A| = 10 |Adj A| = |A|3 1 = |A|2 = 102 = 100 24. Consider the following statements: (a) If any two rows or columns of a determinant are identical, then the value of the

    determinant is zero (b) If the corresponding rows and columns of a determinant are interchanged, then the value

    of determinant does not change. (c) If any two rows (or columns) of a determinant are interchanged, then the value of the

    determinant changes in sign. Which of these are correct? (1) (a) and (c) (2) (a) and (b) (3) (a), (b) and (c) (4) (b) and (c) Ans: (3) Since each option is correct options (1), (2), (3), (4) are all correct answers.

The local minimum value of the function f| given by f (x) = 3 + |x|, x R is (1) -1 (2) 3 (3) 1 (4) 0 Ans: (1 & 3) or (2) Clearly when x > 0, local minimum = 1 When x < 0, local minimum = -1 option (1) and (3) both are true However, if the question was given as The local minimum value of the function f given by f (x) = 3 + |x|, x R is, then (3) is correct answer. It is clear from the graph of the

    function y = |x| + 3. Eventhough it is not differentiable at x = 3, it still has a relative minimum.
