The number of values of $$k$$, for which the system of equations : $$$\matrix{ {\left( {k + 1} \right)x + 8y = 4k} \cr {kx + \left( {k + 3} \right)y = 3k - 1} \cr } $$$
has no solution, is

If the equations $${x^2} + 2x + 3 = 0$$ and $$a{x^2} + bx + c = 0,$$ $$a,\,b,\,c\, \in \,R,$$ have a common root, then $$a\,:b\,:c\,$$ is

Let $${T_n}$$ be the number of all possible triangles formed by joining vertices of an n-sided regular polygon. If $${T_{n + 1}} - {T_n}$$ = 10, then the value of n is :

The term independent of $$x$$ in expansion of
$${\left( {{{x + 1} \over {{x^{2/3}} - {x^{1/3}} + 1}} - {{x - 1} \over {x - {x^{1/2}}}}} \right)^{10}}$$ is
