If $\left|\begin{array}{cc}2 x & 5 \\ 8 & x\end{array}\right|=\left|\begin{array}{cc}6 & -2 \\ 7 & 3\end{array}\right|$ then the value of x is: |
3 $\pm 3$ 6 $\pm 6$ |
$\pm 6$ |
The correct answer is Option (4) → $\pm 6$ $\left|\begin{array}{cc}2 x & 5 \\ 8 & x\end{array}\right|=\left|\begin{array}{cc}6 & -2 \\ 7 & 3\end{array}\right|$ $⇒2x^2-40=18+14$ $x^2=20+9+7⇒x^2=36$ $x=\pm 6$ |
