Equation $\frac{3}{{x - {a^3}}} + \frac{5}{{x - {a^5}}} + \frac{7}{{x - {a^7}}} = 0,a > 1$ has

Let $\mathrm{S}$ be the set of positive integral values of $a$ for which $\frac{\mathrm{ax}^2+2(\mathrm{a}+1) \mathrm{x}+9 \mathrm{a}+4}{\mathrm{x}^2-8 \mathrm{x}+32}<0, \forall \mathrm{x} \in \mathbb{R}$. Then, the number of elements in $\mathrm{S}$ is :

If $\alpha ,\beta ,\gamma$  are the roots of $x^3 - x - 2 = 0$, then the value of $\alpha^5 + \beta^5 + \gamma^5$ is-

Consider a three-digit number with the following properties:

$I$. If its digits in units place and tens place are interchanged, the number increases by $36$ ;

$II.$ If its digits in units place and hundreds place are interchanged, the number decreases by $198 .$

Now, suppose that the digits in tens place and hundreds place are interchanged. Then, the number
