Let $A = \begin{bmatrix} \alpha & 1 & 2 \\ 2 & 3 & 0 \\ 0 & 4 & 5 \end{bmatrix}$ and $B = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & -5\alpha & 0 \\ 0 & 4\alpha & -2\alpha \end{bmatrix} + \text{adj}(A)$. If $\det(B)=66$, then $\det(\text{adj}(A))$ equals:

Let $A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 3 & 1 & 0 \\ 9 & 3 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$ and $B = [b_{ij}]$, $1 \leq i, j \leq 3$. If $B = A^{99} - I$, then the value of $\dfrac{b_{31} - b_{21}}{b_{32}}$ is :
