The number of integers $a$ in the interval $[1,2014]$ for which the system of equations $x+y=a$, $\frac{x^2}{x-1}+\frac{y^2}{y-1}=4$ has finitely many solutions is

Let $\alpha $ and $\beta $ are roots of $5{x^2} - 3x - 1 = 0$ , then $\left[ {\left( {\alpha  + \beta } \right)x - \left( {\frac{{{\alpha ^2} + {\beta ^2}}}{2}} \right){x^2} + \left( {\frac{{{\alpha ^3} + {\beta ^3}}}{3}} \right){x^3} -......} \right]$ is

For what value of $\lambda$ the sum of the squares of the roots of ${x^2} + (2 + \lambda )\,x - \frac{1}{2}(1 + \lambda ) = 0$ is minimum

The integer $'k'$, for which the inequality $x^{2}-2(3 k-1) x+8 k^{2}-7>0$ is valid for every $x$ in $R ,$ is

A man standing on a railway platform noticed that a train took $21\, s$ to cross the platform (this means the time elapsed from the moment the engine enters the platform till the last compartment leaves the platform) which is $88\,m$ long, and that it took $9 s$ to pass him. Assuming that the train was moving with uniform speed, what is the length of the train in meters?

Let $\lambda \in R$ and let the equation $E$ be $| x |^2-2| x |+|\lambda-3|=0$. Then the largest element in the set $S =$ $\{ x +\lambda: x$ is an integer solution of $E \}$ is $..........$
