7. The series S = 1-1+1-1 …….. is

a) Convergent b) monotonous
c) Oscillatory d) divergent

Ans:

If sum of terms becomes finite value as tend to infinity,

then it the series is called convergent, otherwise divergent. If
the subsequent term is continuously more than previous term
then the series is called monotonously increasing and less
than previous term then the series is called monotonously
decreasing. If the series neither diverges nor converges is
called oscillatory.

8. If a function is continuous at a point its first derivative

a) May or may not exist
b) exists always

c) Will not exist

d) has a unique value

Ans:

If the function is continuous at a point and if it is not smooth,

then the first derivative will not exist. So may or may not
exists the derivative.
