CAT Question of the Day Answer the question based on the passage given below.
Algebra is a branch of mathematics sibling to geometry, analysis (calculus), number theory, combinatorics, etc. Although algebra has its roots in numerical domains such as the real and the complex numbers, in its full generality it differs from its siblings in serving no specific mathematical area. Whereas geometry is limited to spatial entities, algebra is equally applicable to continuous variation, number theory, arithmetic, and combinatorics discrete structures.
Algebra is different from other branches of mathematics in which of the following ways?
| OPTIONS | | |  | 1) | It is domain independent. | | | 2) | It is not applicable to natural numbers and the integers. | | | 3) | It has no specific mathematical function. | | | 4) | All of the above. |
Tip of the Day If we take a point anywhere inside the parallelogram and join it with all the four vertices, we get four triangles such that the sum of the areas of both sets of vertically opposite triangles is equal. Last year's Question of the day (02-Nov-12) In a particular turn of a game, a person can win 2 rupees with a probability of 0.75 and otherwise, lose 1 rupee with a probability of 0.25. What is the probability that after 7 turns a person would have won exactly two rupees? (Assume he had more than 7 rupees to start with)
