Manipal MET2019MathematicsDeterminants
If c=2 , then the value of the determinant = | array lll c & 1 & 0 1 & c & 1 6 & 1 & c array | is
Options
- A4
- B2 ^2 2
- C4 ^2 (2 -1)
- DNone of these
Correct answer
D. None of these
Step-by-step solution
Given that c=2 = | array lll c & 1 & 0 1 & c & 1 6 & 1 & c array |= | array ccc 2 & 1 & 0 1 & 2 & 1 6 & 1 & 2 array | On expanding, we get aligned = & 2 [ (4 ^2 -1 ) ] & -1[(2 -6)]+0[(1-12 )] = & 8 ^3 -2 -2 +6 = & 8 ^3 -4 +6 aligned
