If $|A|$  denotes the value of the determinant of the square matrix $A$ of order $3$ , then $ |-2A|=$

If $\alpha , \beta \, and \, \gamma$ are real numbers , then $D = \left|{\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1&{\cos \,(\beta \, - \,\alpha )}&{\cos \,(\gamma \, - \,\alpha )}\\{\cos \,(\alpha \, - \,\beta )}&1&{\cos \,(\gamma \, - \,\beta )}\\{\cos \,(\alpha \, - \,\gamma )}&{\cos \,(\beta \, - \,\gamma )}&1 \end{array}} \right|$ =

In a third order determinant, each element of the first column consists of sum of two terms, each element of the second column consists of sum of three terms and each element of the third column consists of sum of four terms. Then it can be decomposed into $n $determinants, where $ n$  has the value

If the points $(2k, k), (k, 2k)$ and $(k, k)$ with $k > 0$ enclose a triangle of area $18$ square unit then centroid of triangle is equal to

If the system of linear equations $2 \mathrm{x}+2 \mathrm{ay}+\mathrm{az}=0$ ; $2 x+3 b y+b z=0$ ; $2 \mathrm{x}+4 \mathrm{cy}+\mathrm{cz}=0$ ; where $a, b, c \in R$ are non-zero and distinct; has a non-zero solution, then 

Find values of $x$, if $\left|\begin{array}{ll}2 & 4 \\ 5 & 1\end{array}\right|=\left|\begin{array}{cc}2 x & 4 \\ 6 & x\end{array}\right|$
