The total number of classes in the schedule
The number of conflicts in the schedule
The total duration of the class schedule
The number of students enrolled in the classes
Show me the answer
Answer: B) The number of conflicts in the schedule
Explanation:
The fitness function is designed to penalize routines with conflicts by incorporating them in the denominator. A higher number of conflicts leads to a lower fitness value. Thus, it measures the number of conflicts in the schedule, aiming to minimize them for an optimal solution.

a = a + 3;
cout << *p << endl;
cout << a << endl;
return 0;
}
10 13
8 8
10 10
8 10
Show me the answer
Answer:
1. 10 13
Explanation:
The given code performs the following steps:
int a = 5;
Variable a is initialized with the value 5.
int *p = &a;
Pointer p is declared and assigned the address of a. So, p points to a.
*p = *p * 2;
*p dereferences the pointer to access the value of a.
The value of a is multiplied by 2 and assigned back to a.
Now, a = 10.
a = a + 3;
The value of a is incremented by 3.
Now, a = 13. Since *p refers to the same memory location as a, the value pointed to by p is also 13.
cout << *p << endl;
Prints the value pointed to by p, which is 13.
cout << a << endl;
Prints the value of a, which is also 13.

15. What is the correct order of phases in the Waterfall model of software development?
Requirement Analysis → System Design → Implementation → Integration and Testing → Deployment → Maintenance
Requirement Analysis → Implementation → System Design → Integration and Testing → Deployment → Maintenance
Implementation → System Design → Requirement Analysis → Integration and Testing → Deployment → Maintenance
System Design → Requirement Analysis → Implementation → Integration and Testing → Maintenance → Deployment
Show me the answer
Answer:
1) Requirement Analysis → System Design → Implementation → Integration and Testing → Deployment → Maintenance
Explanation:
The Waterfall model is a linear and sequential approach to software development. Each phase must be completed before the next begins.
Requirement Analysis: Collect and document user requirements.
System Design: Create a blueprint of the system.
Implementation: Translate the design into code.
Integration and Testing: Verify that components work together and meet requirements.
Deployment: Deliver the software to the user.
Maintenance: Update and fix issues in the software after deployment.
16. Which of the following characteristics is true for an ideal operational amplifier?
The ideal op-amp has a finite open-loop gain, resulting in a non-zero voltage difference between the inverting and non-inverting inputs.
The ideal op-amp has infinite input impedance and zero output impedance.
The ideal op-amp can only be used in linear configurations and cannot be used in switching applications.
The ideal op-amp has a non-zero input bias current, which affects the accuracy of the amplifier.
Show me the answer
Answer:
2) The ideal op-amp has infinite input impedance and zero output impedance.
Explanation:
An ideal operational amplifier has the following characteristics:
Infinite input impedance to prevent current flow into the input terminals.
Zero output impedance to allow maximum power transfer.
Infinite open-loop gain, ensuring accurate amplification.
17. In supervised learning, what is the main objective during training?
To group similar data points
To predict outputs without labeled data
To learn the mapping from inputs to outputs using labeled data
To find hidden patterns without predefined labels
Show me the answer
Answer:
3) To learn the mapping from inputs to outputs using labeled data.

Supervised learning involves training a model using a dataset with labeled examples. The objective is to learn a function that maps input data to the correct output. Once trained, the model can predict outputs for new, unseen inputs.
18. In a full binary tree, if the number of internal nodes is ( I ), then the number of leaves ( L ) is?
Show me the answer
Answer:
2) ( L = I + 1 )
Explanation:
In a full binary tree:
Every internal node has exactly two children.
The total number of nodes ( N ) in the tree is related to the number of leaves ( L ) and internal nodes ( I ) as ( N = 2 \cdot I + 1 ).
Since ( L = N - I ), substituting the total nodes gives ( L = I + 1 ).
19. A process refers to 5 pages (A, B, C, D, E) in the order: A, B, C, D, A, B, E, A, B, C, D, E. If the page replacement algorithm is FIFO, and the number of page frames is increased to 4, what happens to the number of page transfers?
Decreases
Increases
Remains the same
None of the mentioned
Show me the answer
Answer:
2) Increases
Explanation:
In the FIFO (First-In-First-Out) page replacement algorithm:
Pages are replaced in the order they were brought into memory.
Increasing the number of page frames may sometimes lead to an increase in page faults due to the Belady's Anomaly.
In this case, increasing the number of frames to 4 results in more page transfers as the anomaly occurs.
20. You plan to invest $1,000 in a savings account that offers an annual interest rate of 5%, compounded quarterly. You want to know the future value of this investment after 3 years.
$1130
$1227.5
$1500
$2000
Show me the answer
Answer:
2) $1227.5
Explanation:
The formula for compound interest is:
Where:
FV = Future Value
P = Principal amount = 1000
r = Annual interest rate = 0.05
n = Number of compounding periods per year = 4 (quarterly)
t = Time in years = 3
Substituting values:
Using a calculator:
The future value of the investment after 3 years is $1227.5.
5: Given the vector (2,0,3) and the scaling vector (2,2,4), what is the result of scaling the original vector by the scaling vector?
(4,0,12)
(4,2,7)
(2,0,7)
(1,0,3)
Answer: A) (4,0,12)
Explanation:
Scaling each component of the original vector by the corresponding component of the scaling vector results in (2×2,0×2,3×4)=(4,0,12).
6: In a genetic algorithm used to generate class routines, if the fitness function is defined as f(x)=1+routine conflict1, what does this fitness function measure?
Explanation:
The effective access time (EAT) can be calculated using the formula: EAT=(1−page fault rate)×memory access time+page fault rate×(page fault service time+memory access time)
Substituting the given values:
EAT=(1−0.01)×20ms+0.01×(1000ms+20ms)EAT=0.99×20ms+0.01×1020msEAT=19.8ms+10.2ms=30.8ms
The relation between capacitance, area, and distance between the plates is:
(C=ϵ⋅DA).
According to this relation, the capacitance is directly proportional to the area.
(156÷8=19) with a remainder of 4
(19÷8=2) with a remainder of 3
