PROVING IDENTITIES BY DETERMINANTS. $$ \left|\begin{array}{ccc} (x-2)^{2} & (x-1)^{2} & x^{2} \\ (x-1)^{2} & x^{2} & (x+1)^{2} \\ x^{2} & (x+1)^{2} & (x+2)^{2} \end{array}\right|=-8 $$
For a fixed positive integer \(n\), if \(D=\mid \begin{array}{ccc}n ! & (n+1) ! & (n+2) ! \\ (n+1) ! & (n+2) ! & (n+3) ! \\ (n+2) ! & (n+3) ! & (n+4) !\end{array}\) then show that \(\left[\frac{D}{(n !)^{3}}-4\right]\) is divisible by \(n\).
EQUATIONS CONTAINING DETERMINANTS. $$ \left|\begin{array}{ccc} x+2 & 2 x+3 & 3 x+4 \\ 2 x+3 & 3 x+4 & 4 x+5 \\ 3 x+5 & 5 x+8 & 10 x+17 \end{array}\right|=0 $$
EVALUATING DETERMINANTS. $$ \left|\begin{array}{lll} a-b & b-c & c-a \\ b-c & c-a & a-b \\ c-a & a-b & b-c \end{array}\right| $$
If \(a^{-1}+b^{-1}+c^{-1}=0\), prove that \(\left|\begin{array}{ccc}1+a & 1 & 1 \\\ 1 & 1+b & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1+c\end{array}\right|=a b c\).
