$l,m,n$ are the ${p^{th}},{q^{th}}$and ${r^{th}}$term of a G.P., all positive, then $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\log l}&{p\,\,\,\,\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1\end{array}}\\{\log m}&{q\,\,\,\,\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1\end{array}}\\{\log n}&{r\,\,\,\,\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1\end{array}}\end{array}\,} \right|$ equals

If $n \ne 3k$ and 1, $\omega ,{\omega ^2}$ are the cube roots of unity, then $\Delta = \left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1&{{\omega ^n}}&{{\omega ^{2n}}}\\{{\omega ^{2n}}}&1&{{\omega ^n}}\\{{\omega ^n}}&{{\omega ^{2n}}}&1\end{array}\,} \right|$ has the value

The number of values of $\alpha$ for which the system of equations:   $x+y+z=\alpha$ ;  $\alpha x+2 \alpha y+3 z=-1$ ;  $x+3 \alpha y+5 z=4$    is inconsistent, is

If $\left| {{\kern 1pt} \begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1&2&3\\2&x&3\\3&4&5\end{array}\,} \right| = 0,$ then  $x =$

If $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{1 + ax}&{1 + bx}&{1 + cx}\\{1 + {a_1}x}&{1 + {b_1}x}&{1 + {c_1}x}\\{1 + {a_2}x}&{1 + {b_2}x}&{1 + {c_2}x}\end{array}\,} \right|,$ $ = {A_0} + {A_1}x + {A_2}{x^2} + {A_3}{x^3}$ then ${A_1}$ is equal to
