Explanation:
$\begin{gathered}R=\left[\begin{array}{lll}a & 3 & b \\ c & 2 & d \\ 0 & 5 & 0\end{array}\right] \\\\ a, b, c, d, \in\{0,3,5,7,11,13,17,19\}\end{gathered}$

For Non-invertible matrices,
$ \begin{aligned} & |R|=0 \\\\ & |R|=-5(a d-b c)=0 \end{aligned} $
Cases when both side are zero.
(i) All four $a, b, c, d$ are zero.
$ a d=b c=0 \quad 1 \text { ways } $
(ii) Three zero and one different digit used for $a, b$, $c, d$.
$ \Rightarrow a d=b c $
Select three from four $a, b, c, d$ assign them zero.
$ \text { i.e., }{ }^4 C_3 \times 1 \times 7=28 \text { ways } $
(iii) Two zero and two different digits
Hence $2 \times 7 \times 2 \times 7=196$ ways
Case II: When both side are same but non zero number.
$ a d=b c \neq 0 $
(i) All four $a, b, c, d$ are same.
i.e., $a d=b c$ ( 7 ways)
(ii) Two alike & two alike of another.
$ a d=b c $

Explanation:
$A^{2}=\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & 0 & 6 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right], \quad A^{4}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1 & 0 & 12 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$\Rightarrow A^{k}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1 & 0 & 3 k \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore \quad X^{\prime} A^{k} X=[111]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1 & 0 & 3 k \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}1 \\ 1 \\ 1\end{array}\right]=[3 k+3]$
$\Rightarrow[3 k+3]=33$ (here it shall be [33] as matrix can't be equal to a scalar)
i.e. $[3 k+3]=33$
$3 k+3=[33] \quad \Rightarrow k=10$
If $k$ is odd and apply above process, we don't get odd value of $k$
$\therefore k=10$
