From 6 different novels and 3 different dictionaries, 4 novels and 1 dictionary are to be selected and arranged in a row on a shelf so that the dictionary is always in the middle. The number of such arrangements is :

Let S = { $$x$$ $$ \in $$ R : $$x$$ $$ \ge $$ 0 and

$$2\left| {\sqrt x - 3} \right| + \sqrt x \left( {\sqrt x - 6} \right) + 6 = 0$$}. Then S

If $$\alpha ,\beta \in C$$ are the distinct roots of the equation
x² - x + 1 = 0, then $${\alpha ^{101}} + {\beta ^{107}}$$ is equal to :

If the system of linear equations

x + ky + 3z = 0
3x + ky - 2z = 0
2x + 4y - 3z = 0

has a non-zero solution (x, y, z), then $${{xz} \over {{y^2}}}$$ is equal to
