If the roots of the quadratic equation $${x^2} + px + q = 0$$ are $$\tan {30^ \circ }$$ and $$\tan {15^ \circ }$$, respectively, then the value of $$2 + q - p$$ is

All the values of $$m$$ for which both roots of the equation $${x^2} - 2mx + {m^2} - 1 = 0$$ are greater than $$ - 2$$ but less then 4, lie in the interval

If $$x$$ is real, the maximum value of $${{3{x^2} + 9x + 17} \over {3{x^2} + 9x + 7}}$$ is

At an election, a voter may vote for any number of candidates, not greater than the number to be elected. There are 10 candidates and 4 are of be selected, if a voter votes for at least one candidate, then the number of ways in which he can vote is
