Consider the system of linear equations

$-x+y+2 z=0$

$3 x-a y+5 z=1$

$2 x-2 y-a z=7$

Let $S_{1}$ be the set of all $\mathrm{a} \in {R}$ for which the system is inconsistent and $S_{2}$ be the set of all $a \in {R}$ for which the system has infinitely many solutions. If $n\left(S_{1}\right)$ and $n\left(S_{2}\right)$ denote the number of elements in $S_{1}$ and $\mathrm{S}_{2}$ respectively, then
