If $A$ is a square matrix such that $A^{2} = A$,then $(I + A)^{3} - 7A$ is equal to

Let $A$ be a square matrix of order $2$ such that $|A|=2$ and the sum of its diagonal elements is $-3$. If the points $(x, y)$ satisfying $A^2+xA+yI=0$ lie on a hyperbola,whose transverse axis is parallel to the $x$-axis,eccentricity is $e$ and the length of the latus rectum is $\ell$,then $e^4+\ell^4$ is equal to?

If $A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 3 \\ 4 & 2 \end{bmatrix}$ and $B = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & -1 \\ 1 & 2 \end{bmatrix}$,then find the value of $|A B B'|$.

The maximum value of $f(x) = \left|\begin{array}{ccc} \sin^{2} x & 1+\cos^{2} x & \cos 2x \\ 1+\sin^{2} x & \cos^{2} x & \cos 2x \\ \sin^{2} x & \cos^{2} x & \sin 2x \end{array}\right|, x \in R$ is:

Let $A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 \\ 1 & \alpha \end{bmatrix}$ and $B = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & 3 \\ \beta & 2 \end{bmatrix}$. If $A^2 - 4A + I = O$ and $B^2 - 5B - 6I = O$, then among the two statements:
(S1): $[(B - A)(B + A)]^T = \begin{bmatrix} 13 & 15 \\ 7 & 10 \end{bmatrix}$
and
(S2): $\det(\text{adj}(A + B)) = -5$.

Let $\alpha \beta \gamma = 45$; $\alpha, \beta, \gamma \in R$. If $x(\alpha, 1, 2) + y(1, \beta, 2) + z(2, 3, \gamma) = (0, 0, 0)$ for some $x, y, z \in R$ such that $xyz \neq 0$,then $6\alpha + 4\beta + \gamma$ is equal to:
