Axis of a parabola lies along x-axis. If its vertex and focus are at distances 2 and 4 respectively from the origin, on the positive x-axis then which of the following points does not lie on it?

The system of linear equations
x + y + z = 2
2x + 3y + 2z = 5
2x + 3y + (a² – 1) z = a + 1 then

Let $$0 < \theta < {\pi \over 2}$$. If the eccentricity of the

hyperbola $${{{x^2}} \over {{{\cos }^2}\theta }} - {{{y^2}} \over {{{\sin }^2}\theta }}$$ = 1 is greater

than 2, then the length of its latus rectum lies in the interval :

Consider a class of 5 girls and 7 boys. The number of different teams consisting of 2 girls and 3 boys that can be formed from this class, if there are two specific boys A and B, who refuse to be the members of the same team, is :
