Quiz: MTH113M (2022-2023)

Date: 19 April 2023 Time: 07:30 pm-08:10 pm Maximum marks: 30

Name: Roll No.

Instructions: (Read carefully)


• Please enter your NAME and ROLL NUMBER in the space provided on each sheet. Booklets
without name and roll number will not be graded.

• This answer booklet has 6 pages. Check to see if any of the print is faulty or missing on all
the pages. In such a case, ask for a replacement immediately.

• Please answer each question in the space provided ONLY. Answers written outside the space
provided for it WILL NOT be considered for grading. So remember to use space judiciously.

• For rough work, separate sheets will be provided to you. Write your name and roll number
on rough sheets as well. However, they WILL NOT be accepted back along with the answer
booklet.

• No calculators, mobile phones, smart watches or other electronic gadgets are permitted in
the exam hall.

• Notations: All notations used are as discussed in class. In particular, all vector spaces that
have already been introduced in class will continue to have the same vector addition and
scalar multiplication as was defined on it.

• All questions are compulsory.

Q 4: Determine whether the following statements are true or false. If they are true, provide clear
justification. If false, provide a counterexample.
(a) Let A, B ∈ Mn×n (R) be such that AB = −BA. If n is odd then either A or B is not
invertible.
(b) Any system Ax = b has a solution for some non-zero b implies det(A) ̸= 0.
(c) If the entries of the real matrix A are 0’s and 1’s, then det(A) = 1, 0, or−1. (2)+(2)+(2)
