Let $x = \frac{\sqrt{13} + \sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{13} - \sqrt{11}}$ and $y = \frac{1}{x}$. Then the value of $3x^2 - 5xy + 3y^2$ is:

If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are roots of the equation $x^2 - 4\sqrt{2}kx + 2e^{4\ln k} - 1 = 0$ for some $k$, and $\alpha^2 + \beta^2 = 66$, then $\alpha^3 + \beta^3$ is equal to: (in $\sqrt{2}$)

The value of $a$ for which the equations $x^2 - 3x + a = 0$ and $x^2 + ax - 3 = 0$ have a common root is

The expression $y = ax^2 + bx + c$ has always the same sign as $c$ if

If the roots of the equation $x^2 + px + q = 0$ are $\alpha$ and $\beta$,and the roots of the equation $x^2 - xr + s = 0$ are $\alpha^4$ and $\beta^4$,then the roots of the equation $x^2 - 4qx + 2q^2 - r = 0$ will be:

The value of $\lambda$ such that the sum of the squares of the roots of the quadratic equation $x^2 + (3 - \lambda)x + 2 = \lambda$ has the least value is:
