In a square matrix $A$ of order $3, a_{i i}'s$ are the sum of the roots of the equation $x^2 - (a + b)x + ab= 0$; $a_{i , i + 1}'s$ are the product of the roots, $a_{i , i - 1}'s$ are all unity and the rest of the elements are all zero. The value of the det. $(A)$ is equal to

If $-9 $ is a root of the equation $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}x&3&7\\2&x&2\\7&6&x\end{array}\,} \right| = 0$ then the other two roots are

If $D_1$ and $D_2$ are two $3 \times 3$ diagonal matrices, then

If $p + q + r = 0 = a + b + c$, then the value of the determinant $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{pa}&{qb}&{rc}\\{qc}&{ra}&{pb}\\{rb}&{pc}&{qa}\end{array}\,} \right|$ is

Number of triplets of $a, b \, \& \,c$ for which the system of equations,$ax - by = 2a - b$ and $(c + 1) x + cy = 10 - a + 3 b$ has infinitely many solutions and $x = 1, y = 3$ is one of the solutions, is :

The determinant $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{4 + {x^2}}&{ - 6}&{ - 2}\\{ - 6}&{9 + {x^2}}&3\\{ - 2}&3&{1 + {x^2}}\end{array}\,} \right|$ is not divisible by
