Step-by-step explanation:
Example of how to find the determinant of a 2×2 matrices is as shown;
= (a*d)-(b*c)
= ad - bc
Applying this to solve the given questions
1) (3*4) - (-3*-1)
= 12 - (3)
= 9
2) (-12*5)-(-1*12)
= -60 - (-12)
= -60+12
= -48
3) (0*4)-(-1*17)
= 0-(-17)
= 0+17
= 17
4) (8*-1)-(-4*-1)
= -8-(4)
= -8-4
= -12
5) (2*-1)-(2*-1)
= -2-(-2)
= -2+2
= 0
6) 1(1) - 0(0)
= 1 - 0
= 1
For both problems, we can use the section formula.
