A
75240
B
52492
C
41800
D

Question 1 Explanation: 
Given data,
-- 20 men and 12 women
-- 5 people can choose from men and women
-- Each committee contains at least three women
Step-1: We have a constraint that each committee contains atleast 3 women.
possibility-1: 2 men + 3 women.
possibility-2: 1 men + 4 women.
possibility-3: 0 men + 5 women.
Step-1: They are asking to find all possibilities.
= (possibility -1)+ (possibility -2) + (possibility -3)
=​ . ​ (​ 20​ C​ 2.​ *​ 12​ C​ 3​ ) + (​ 20​ C​ 2.​ *​ 12​ C​ 2​ ) + (​ 20​ C​ 2.​ *​ 12​ C​ 2​ )
= (190*220) + (20*495) + (1*792)
= 41800 + 9900 + 792
= 52492

Question 4

Consider the graph given below: The two distinct sets of vertices, which make the graph bipartite are:
A
(v​ 1​ , v​ 4​ , v​ 6​ ); (v​ 2​ , v3​ , v​ 5​ , v​ 7​ , v​ 8​ )
B
(v​ 1​ , v​ 7​ , v​ 8​ ); (v​ 2​ , v​ 3​ , v​ 5​ , v​ 6​ )
C
(v​ 1​ , v​ 4​ , v​ 6​ , v​ 7​ ); (v​ 2​ , v​ 3​ , v​ 5​ , v​ 8​ )
D
(v​ 1​ , v​ 4​ , v​ 6​ , v​ 7​ , v​ 8​ ); (v​ 2​ , v​ 3​ , v​ 5​ )
Question 4 Explanation: 
A bipartite graph (or bigraph) is a graph whose vertices can be divided into two disjoint and independent sets U and V such that every edge connects a vertex in U to one in V. Vertex sets U and V are usually called the parts of the graph. Equivalently, a bipartite graph is a graph that does not contain any odd-length cycles.
→ The two sets U and V may be thought of as a coloring of the graph with two colors.
Option A: FALSE because V​ 5​ , V​ 7​ and V​ 3​ are adjacent. So, it not not bipartite graph.

Option-B FALSE because V​ 5​ , V​ 6​ and V​ 2​ are adjacent. So, it not not bipartite graph.

Option-C TRUE because it follows properties of bipartied and no two colours are adjacent.

Option-D FALSE because because V​ 4​ , V​ 6​ and V​ 8​ are adjacent. So, it not not bipartite graph.

(b) “Either Puneet is not guilty or Pankaj is telling the truth. Pankaj is not telling the truth, therefore, Puneet is not guilty”.
(c) If n is a real number such that n >1, then n​ 2 ​ >1. Suppose that n​ 2 ​ >1, then n >1.

Statement-C is ∀m ∀n P(m, n). Here, every positive integer divided every positive integer. It is false.

(c)The symmetric property
A
(a) and (b)
B

C
(a) only
D

Question 10 Explanation: 
An abelian group is a set, A, together with an operation • that combines any two elements a and b to form another element denoted a • b. The symbol • is a general placeholder for a concretely given operation. To qualify as an abelian group, the set and operation, (A, •), must satisfy five requirements known as the abelian group axioms:
Closure: For all a, b in A, the result of the operation a • b is also in A.
Associativity: For all a, b and c in A, the equation (a • b) • c = a • (b • c) holds.
Identity element: There exists an element e in A, such that for all elements a in A, the equation e • a = a • e = a holds.
Inverse element: For each a in A, there exists an element b in A such that a • b = b • a = e, where e is the identity element.
Commutativity: For all a, b in A, a • b = b • a.
A group in which the group operation is not commutative is called a "non-abelian group" or "non-commutative group".
Question 11
Consider the following program :
#include
main( )
{
int i, inp;
float x, term=1, sum=0;
scanf(“%d %f ”, &inp, &x);
for(i=1; i<=inp; i++)
{
term = term * x/i;
sum = sum + term ;
}
printf(“Result = %f\n”, sum);
}
The program computes the sum of which of the following series?
A
x + x​ 2​ /2 + x​ 3​ /3 + x​ 4​ /4 +...
B
x + x​ 2​ /2! + x​ 3​ /3! + x​ 4​ /4! +...
C
1 + x​ 2​ /2 + x​ 3​ /3 + x​ 4​ /4 +...
D
1 + x​ 2​ /2! + x​ 3​ /3! + x​ 4​ /4! +...
Question 11 Explanation: 
In this problem, we have to find series of evaluation.
Let x=5, inp=5
Iteration-1:
for(i=1; i<=inp; i++)
/* condition true 1<=5 */
{
term = term * x/i;
/* (1*5)/1=5. Here, 5 nothing but ‘x’ */
sum = sum + term ; /* 0+5=5 */
}
Iteration-2: Here, ‘i’ becomes 2.
for(i=2; i<=inp; i++)
/* condition true 2<=5 */
{
term = term * x/i;
/* (5*5)/2 is nothing but x​ 2​ /i */
sum = sum + term ; /* 5+12=17 */
}
;;;
;;;
Iteration-5: Here, ‘i’ becomes 5.
for(i=5; i<=inp; i++)
/* condition true 5<=5 */
{
term = term * x/i;
/* (625*5)/5! is nothing but x​ 5​ /i! */
sum = sum + term ;
}
So, Option-B is correct answer.
Question 12
Consider the following two statements:
(a) A publicly derived class is a subtype of its base class.
(b) Inheritance provides for code reuse.
A
Both the statements (a) and (b) are correct.
B
Neither of the statements (a) and (b) are correct
C
Statement (a) is correct and (b) is incorrect
D
Statement (a) is incorrect and (b) is correct.
Question 12 Explanation: 
→ A publicly derived class is a subtype of its base class.
→ Inheritance is defined as deriving new classes (sub classes) from existing ones (super class or base class) and forming them into a hierarchy of classes.
→ Inheritance allows programmers to create classes that are built upon existing classes, to specify a new implementation while maintaining the same behaviors (realizing an interface), to reuse code and to independently extend original software via public classes and interfaces.
