Q1. Geometrically, |z| is:

  1. the distance of the point z from the origin
  2. the angle with the x-axis
  3. the real part
  4. the area
Show the answer

Answer: A. the distance of the point z from the origin

The correct answer is “the distance of the point z from the origin”. Modulus = distance.

Q2. The discriminant of 4x² − 8x + 1 = 0 is:

  1. −48
  2. −24
  3. 48
  4. 80
Show the answer

Answer: C. 48

The correct answer is “48”. b² − 4ac = 64 − 16 = 48.

Q3. The determinant of [5 −2 ; 6 −3] is:

  1. 3
  2. −27
  3. 24
  4. −3
Show the answer

Answer: D. −3

The correct answer is “−3”. |A| = ad − bc = −3.

Q4. A bacterial population of 100 doubles every hour. After 3 hours it is:

  1. 400
  2. 600
  3. 106
  4. 800
Show the answer

Answer: D. 800

The correct answer is “800”. P = 100 × 2^3.

Q5. The sum of the reciprocals of two consecutive positive integers is 7/12. The integers are:

  1. 3 and 5
  2. 3 and 4
  3. 4 and 5
  4. 2 and 3
Show the answer

Answer: B. 3 and 4

1/x + 1/(x + 1) = 7/12 gives the positive solution x = 3, so the integers are 3 and 4.

Q6. A person walks 3 km east and then 4 km north. The displacement from the start is:

  1. 7 km
  2. 1 km
  3. 25 km
  4. 5 km
Show the answer

Answer: D. 5 km

The correct answer is “5 km”. √(3² + 4²) = 5 km.
