Use two different ways to find the determinant of the follow
Use two different ways to find the determinant of the following matrix -3 5 1 0 -1 1 4 2 3
Solution
one way
Your matrix
Eliminate elements in the 1st column under the 1st element
Eliminate elements in the 2nd column under the 2nd element
Multiply the main diagonal elements
-3 x (-1) x 13 = 39
solution
Determinant is 39
second way
det = -3*(-3-2) - 5*(-4)+ 4 = 39 (answer)
