<span>The
value of the determinant of a 2x2 matrix is the product of the top-left
and bottom-right terms minus the product of the top-right and
bottom-left terms.
The value of the determinant of a 2x2 matrix is the product of the top-left and bottom-right terms minus the product of the top-right and bottom-left terms.
= [ (1)(-3)] - [ (7)(0) ]
= -3 - 0
= -3
Therefore, the determinant is -3.

First let’s multiply. 8x-4=-3x+32. Start collecting like terms on different sides. 8x+3x=32+4. 11x=36. x=36/11. x=3.27.
