If is a complex root of the equation
\left|\right|+\left|\right|=0,
then
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
Expanding the two determinants, we get
\left(1-3 x^2+2 x^3\right)+\left(3 x^2-x^3\right)=0\Rightarrow x^3+1=0\Rightarrow x=-\omega,-\omega^2,-1x^{2007}+x^{-2007}=-1-1=-2
