n$$-$$digit numbers are formed using only three digits 2, 5 and 7. The smallest value of n for which 900 such distinct numbers can be formed, is :

If x₁, x₂, . . ., x_n and $${1 \over {{h_1}}}$$, $${1 \over {{h_2}}}$$, . . . , $${1 \over {{h_n}}}$$ are two A.P..s such that x₃ = h₂ = 8 and x₈ = h₇ = 20, then x₅.h₁₀ equals :

Let S be the set of all real values of k for which the systemof linear equations
x + y + z = 2
2x + y $$-$$ z = 3
3x + 2y + kz = 4
has a unique solution. Then S is :

Let $$A$$ be a matrix such that $$A.\left[ {\matrix{ 1 & 2 \cr 0 & 3 \cr } } \right]$$ is a scalar matrix and |3A| = 108.
Then A² equals :
