displaymath766

. Differentiate the result to compare with the original form.

Q2. Find the integral of

displaymath767

.

Q3. Expand tex2html_wrap_inline770 .

Q4. Obtain the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a 10 by 10 random symmetric matrix. (Hint: generate a random 10 by 10 random general (possibly asymmetric) matrix and symmetrise it by a number of approaches e.g. add it to its transpose and divide by 2). Check the eigenvectors for orthonormality.

Q5. Find the Laplace Transforms of sin(x), tex2html_wrap_inline774 , tex2html_wrap_inline776 and tex2html_wrap_inline778 .
