Let $M$ and $N$ be two $3 \times 3$ matrices such that $M N=N M$. Further, if $M \neq N^2$ and $M^2=N^4$, then

$(A)$ determinant of $\left( M ^2+ MN ^2\right)$ is $0$

$(B)$ there is a $3 \times 3$ non-zero matrix $U$ such that $\left( M ^2+ MN ^2\right) U$ is the zero matrix

$(C)$ determinant of $\left( M ^2+ MN ^2\right) \geq 1$

$(D)$ for a $3 \times 3$ matrix $U$, if $\left( M ^2+ MN ^2\right) U$ equals the zero matrix then $U$ is the zero matrix

If the system of linear equations  $x-2 y+z=-4 $   ;  $2 x+\alpha y+3 z=5 $  ;  $3 x-y+\beta z=3$ has infinitely many solutions, then $12 \alpha+13 \beta$ is equal to

Let $A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}5&{5\alpha }&\alpha \\0&\alpha &{5\alpha }\\0&0&5\end{array}} \right]$, If ${\left| A \right|^2} = 25$, then $\left| \alpha \right|$ equals

Evaluate the determinants : $\left|\begin{array}{cc}2 & 4 \\ -5 & -1\end{array}\right|$

The system of equations $kx + 2y\,-z = 1$  ;  $(k\,-\,1)y\,-2z = 2$  ;  $(k + 2)z = 3$ has unique solution, if $k$ is equal to
