5).If  G(0)= -1,  G(1)=1,  G(N)=G(N-1)-G(N-2), then find- G(5)
ans=-2

6) A may complete a work in 90 days, A+B complete the work in 60 days in how many days B alone may complete the work.  ans=180days

7)the base address(A[1][1]) of an int array A[7][5] is 1620 and int takes 4 byte to store in the memory then find out the address of A[5][2].      ans=1704

M(463,5)+R(3.3)+T(7.9)+R(5.7) ANS:19

18) Which  are orthogonal pairs?
a. 3i+2j b. i-8j   c. 2i-3j d. 6i-2j  ans = A&C.

19)find the singular matrix??  ans=whose det value is 0.

20)there was one pi chart and 4 qs are baised on it...easy one

21)tere was one bar graph and 4 qs are baised on it...   and  so on....
