The sum of all real values of $$x$$ satisfying the equation $${\left( {{x^2} - 5x + 5} \right)^{{x^2} + 4x - 60}}\, = 1$$ is :

Let $$\alpha $$ and $$\beta $$ be the roots of equation $${x^2} - 6x - 2 = 0$$. If $${a_n} = {\alpha ^n} - {\beta ^n},$$ for $$n \ge 1,$$ then the value of $${{{a_{10}} - 2{a_8}} \over {2{a_9}}}$$ is equal to :

Let $$\alpha $$ and $$\beta $$ be the roots of equation $$p{x^2} + qx + r = 0,$$ $$p \ne 0.$$ If $$p,\,q,\,r$$ in A.P. and $${1 \over \alpha } + {1 \over \beta } = 4,$$ then the value of $$\left| {\alpha - \beta } \right|$$ is :

If $$a \in R$$ and the equation $$ - 3{\left( {x - \left[ x \right]} \right)^2} + 2\left( {x - \left[ x \right]} \right) + {a^2} = 0$$ (where [$$x$$] denotes the greater integer $$ \le x$$) has no integral solution, then all possible values of a lie in the interval :
