Question
Find the value of x if `|(x, -1, 2),(2x, 1, -3),(3, -4, 5)|` = 29
Solution
`|(x, -1, 2),(2x, 1, -3),(3, -4, 5)|` = 29
∴ `x|(1, -3),(-4, 5)|-(-1)|(2x, -3),(3, 5)|+ 2|(2x, 1),(3, -4)|` = 29
∴ x(5 – 12) + 1(10x + 9) + 2(–8x – 3) = 29
∴ –7x + 10x + 9 – 16x – 6 = 29
∴ –13x + 3 = 29
∴ –13x = 26
∴ x = – 2
