What are the values of x that satisfy the equation | array lll x & 0 & 2 2 x & 2 & 1 1 & 1 & 1 array |+ | array lll 3 x & 0 & 2 x^2 & 2 & 1 0 & 1 & 1 array |=0 ?
Options
- A-2 3
- B-1 3
- C-1 6
- D-2 6
Correct answer
D. -2 6
Step-by-step solution
On expanding both the determinants we get aligned & [n(1)+2(2 x-2)]+ [3 x+2 x^2 ]=0 & =2 x^2+8 x-4=0 & x^2+4 x-2=0 & x=-2 6 aligned
