A function F(A, B, C) defined by three Boolean variables A, B and C when expressed as sum of products is given by

F = $$\overline A .\overline B .\overline C + \overline A .B.\overline C + A.\overline B .\overline C $$

where, $$\overline A $$, $$\overline B $$, and $$\overline C $$ are the complements of the respective variables. The product of sums (POS) form of the function F is

Let M be a real 4 $$ \times $$ 4 matrix. Consider the following statements :

S1: M has 4 linearly independent eigenvectors.

S2: M has 4 distinct eigenvalues.

S3: M is non-singular (invertible).

Which one among the following is TRUE?

Consider matrix $$A = \left[ {\matrix{ k & {2k} \cr {{k^2} - k} & {{k^2}} \cr } } \right]$$ and

vector $$X = \left[ {\matrix{ {{x_1}} \cr {{x_2}} \cr } } \right]$$.

The number of distinct real values of k for which the equation AX = 0 has infinitely many solutions is _______.

The position of a particle y(t) is described by the differential equation :

$${{{d^2}y} \over {d{t^2}}} = - {{dy} \over {dt}} - {{5y} \over 4}$$.

The initial conditions are y(0) = 1 and $${\left. {{{dy} \over {dt}}} \right|_{t = 0}}$$ = 0.

The position (accurate to two decimal places) of the particle at t = $$\pi $$ is _______.
