 SECTION-2
Section 2 contains 10 Numerical Value Type Questions Out of which ONLY 5 (any) questions have to be
attempted.
The answer to each question is a NUMERICAL VALUE. For each question, enter the correct numerical value of the
answer. If the answer is a decimal numerical value, then round-off the value to TWO decimal places. If the answer
is an Integer value, then do not add zero in the decimal places. In the OMR, do not bubble the  sign for positive
values. However, for negative values, Θ sign should be bubbled. (Example: 6, 81, 1.50, 3.25, 0.08)

21. Find all possible arrangements that can be made by taking 4 letters of the word

23. Number of points of discontinuity of f ( x)  [2 x 2 ] in [1,2) is, where [x] denotes greatest integer less
than or equal to x.

twice is P. Find 72P.
