Question

The correct determinant value for the determinant  would be
A)(8)(4)(3)(6). 
B)(8)(4)+ (3)(6).

D)(8)(3)- (6)(4).

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The determinant value can be found by taking the product of the diagonal elements and subtracting the product of the anti-diagonal elements. The diagonal elements are 11, e59b, 0972, and TB5481. The anti-diagonal elements are 07c094da61d6, b53a, e59b, and 11. Therefore, the determinant value is (11)(e59b)(0972)(TB5481) - (07c094da61d6)(b53a)(e59b)(11), which simplifies to (8)(4) - (3)(6) = 32 - 18 = 14, or (8)(4) + (3)(-6) = 32 - 18 = 14. Only option C gives the correct value.
