Question 3 Explanation:
Given series is Fibonacci series
F(n+1)=F(n)+F(n-1)
Given values are F(6) is 37 and F(7) is 60
F(7)=F(6)+F(5) → 60=37+F(5) → F(5) =60-37=23
F(6)=F(5)+F(4) → 37=23+F(4) → F(4) =37-23=14
F(5)=F(4)+F(3) → 23=14+F(3) → F(3) =23-14=9
F(4)=F(3)+F(2) → 14=9+F(2) → F(2) =14-9=5
F(3)=F(2)+F(1) → 9=5+F(1) → F(1) =9-5=4
F(n+1)=F(n)+F(n-1)
Given values are F(6) is 37 and F(7) is 60
F(7)=F(6)+F(5) → 60=37+F(5) → F(5) =60-37=23
F(6)=F(5)+F(4) → 37=23+F(4) → F(4) =37-23=14
F(5)=F(4)+F(3) → 23=14+F(3) → F(3) =23-14=9
F(4)=F(3)+F(2) → 14=9+F(2) → F(2) =14-9=5
F(3)=F(2)+F(1) → 9=5+F(1) → F(1) =9-5=4

0(0 + 1)* | |
1(0 + 11)* | |
1(110*)* |
Question 14 Explanation:
From the given DFA diagram, it clearly shows that there is no outgoing edge from node “r” so Regular expression won’t start with “0” , Option -B eliminated.
Starting state is "s" and Final state is "p".
There are two outgoing edges from the state "p".
one edge from state "p" to itself with alphabet “0” and another from State "p" to "q” and "q" to "p" with alphabet “1”
So most suitable answer is option C
Starting state is "s" and Final state is "p".
There are two outgoing edges from the state "p".
one edge from state "p" to itself with alphabet “0” and another from State "p" to "q” and "q" to "p" with alphabet “1”
So most suitable answer is option C
