Two curves $C_1 : y = x^2 - 3$ and $C_2 : y = kx^2, k \in R$,intersect each other at two different points. The tangent drawn to $C_2$ at one of the points of intersection $A \equiv (a, y_1), (a > 0)$ meets $C_1$ again at $B(1, y_2), (y_1 \neq y_2)$. The value of '$a$' is

If $f(x) = 4x^3 - x^2 - 2x + 1$ and $g(x) = \begin{cases} \min \{f(t) : 0 \le t \le x\} & ; 0 \le x \le 1 \\ 3 - x & ; 1 < x \le 2 \end{cases}$,then the value of $g\left( \frac{1}{4} \right) + g\left( \frac{3}{4} \right) + g\left( \frac{5}{4} \right)$ is:

Given the following properties of a function $f(x)$:
$(i)$ $f(x)$ is continuous and defined for all real numbers.
$(ii)$ $f'(-5) = 0$; $f'(2)$ is not defined and $f'(4) = 0$.
$(iii)$ $(-5, 12)$ is a point on the graph of $f(x)$.
$(iv)$ $f''(2)$ is undefined,but $f''(x)$ is negative everywhere else.
$(v)$ The signs of $f'(x)$ are given by the following number line:
$f'(x)$ is positive for $x < -5$,negative for $-5 < x < 2$,positive for $2 < x < 4$,and negative for $x > 4$.
On the possible graph of $y = f(x)$,we have:

The number of points,where the curve $f(x) = e^{8x} - e^{6x} - 3e^{4x} - e^{2x} + 1$,$x \in R$ cuts the $x$-axis,is equal to

Let $f(x)$ be a non-negative differentiable function on $[0, \infty)$ such that $f(0)=0$ and $f^{\prime}(x) \leq 2 f(x)$ for all $x>0$. Then,on $[0, \infty)$:

If $y=\frac{(\sqrt{x}+1)(x^2-\sqrt{x})}{x \sqrt{x}+x+\sqrt{x}}+\frac{1}{15}(3 \cos^2 x-5) \cos^3 x$,then $96 y'(\frac{\pi}{6})$ is equal to :
