Question 1
Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

If matrix A gives the largest eigenvalue, it suggests that if A -1 exists, the smallest eigenvalue can be obtained through inverse power
method.

Select one:
True 

False

Question 2
Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

The secant method is almost similar to the concept of False-position in the bracketing methods as it uses two initial approximations
however secant doesn’t bother with the bracketing.

Select one:
True 

False

Question 3
Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

The Secant method is convergent for the function f(x) = 3x4 – x -3 whose initial values are present between x0 = 0 and x1 = -1 

Select one:
True 

False

Eigenvalues are used in the analysis of linear transformation such as scaling.

Select one:
True 

False

Question 5
Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

Power method is an iterative approach that can be employed to determine the largest or dominant eigenvalue

Select one:
True 

False

Question 6
Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

A matrix decomposition method that has an upper triangular matrix and an orthogonal matrix is referred to as the QR 

Select one:
True 

False

Question 7
Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

Question 8
Correct

Mark 1.00 out of 1.00

Given a matrix A , its QR -decomposition is an upper triangular matrix and an orthogonal matrix. An orthogonal matrix is a matrix whose
transpose is equivalent to its inverse.

Select one:
True 

False

Select one:
True 

False

Question 10
Incorrect

Mark 0.00 out of 1.00

The Secant method is convergent for the function f(x) = 3x4 – x -3 whose initial values are present between x0 = 2 and x1 = 4
