Mail us at helpdesk@cheenta.com Which of the following statements are true? Every group of order 11 is cyclic. Every group of order 111 is cyclic. Every group of […]
Any normal subgroup of order 2 is contained in the center of the group. True Discussion: Center of a group Z(G) is the sub group of elements that commute with all members of the group. A subgroup of order two has two elements: identity element and another element, say x, which is self inverse. Since […]
There is an element of order 51 in the multiplicative group (Z/103Z) True Discussion: First note that (Z/103Z) has 102 elements as 103 is a prime (in fact one of the twin primes of 101, 103 pair). Also 102 = 2317. So it has Sylow-3 subgroup of order 3 (prime order hence it is cyclic […]
All non-trivial proper subgroups of (R, +) are cyclic. False Discussion: There is a simple counter example: (Q, +) (the additive group of rational numbers). We also note that every additive subgroup of integers is cyclic (in fact they are of the for nZ). Cyclic groups have exactly one generator. We can construct numerous counter […]
The equation $latex x^3 + 10x^2 - 100x + 1729 $ has at least one complex root α such that |α| > 12. False ** Discussion: A fun fact : 1729 is the Ramanujan Number; it is the smallest number expressible as the sum of two cubes in two different ways We conduct normal extrema tests. First […]
The equation $latex x^3 + 3x - 4 $ has exactly one real root. True Discussion: Consider the derivative of the function $latex f(x) = x^3 + 3x - 4 = 0 $ . It is $latex 3x^2 + 3 $ . Note that the derivative is strictly positive ( positive times square + positive is […]
Problem: Every differentiable function f: (0, 1) --> [0, 1] is uniformly continuous. Discussion; False Note that every differentiable function f: [0,1] --> (0, 1) is uniformly continuous by virtue of uniform continuity theorem which says every continuous map from closed bounded interval to R is uniformly continuous. However in this case the domain is […]
Problem: Let f: R --> R be defined by $latex f(x) = sin (x^3) $. Then f is continuous but not uniformly continuous. Discussion: True It is sufficient to show that there exists an $latex epsilon > 0 $ such that for all $latex \delta > 0 $ there exist $latex x_1 , x_2 \in […]
