Total Marks: 100

 Section A

1.How do you use differential equations in economics? What type of situations can be helpfully depicted using differential equations? Discuss the role of initial condition in solving a differential equation. If your objective is to examine the stability of equilibrium, with the help of an example, show how a second-order differential equation helps in addressing your concern.

2. Give examples of the problems where you can make use of Poisson distribution. Does it have a probability density function? Why or why not? Discuss your answer in the context of the rnean and the variance of Poisson distribution.

Section B

3. Explain the relevant considerations of making a choice between one-tailed and two-tailed tests. How would you determine the level of significance in the above tests?

4. A linear programming problem is given as

Min z = 30 x1+ 50x2 ,

Subject to

9 1 2 1 2 1 2 ³ ³ + ³ + ³ x x x x x0

 Find its optimal solution.

 5) How would you determine linear dependence of a matrix? Define the rank of a matrix in terms of its linear independence.

6) The correlation coefficient between nasal length and stature for a group of 20 Indian adult males was found to be 0.203. Test whether there is any correlation between the characteristics in the population.

7) Write short notes on the following:

 (i) Eigen-vectors and Eigen-values

(ii) Taylor’s expansion

(iii) Mixed strategy

(iv) Kuhn-Tucker conditon
