Solution
–1
Explanation:
The given system of equations will have a non-zero solution, if
`|("a"^3, ("a" + 1)^3, ("a" + 2)^3),("a", "a" + 1, "a" + 2),(1, 1, 1)|` = 0
Applying C2 → C2 – C1, C3 → C3 – C2, we get
`|("a"^3, 3"a"^2 + 3"a" + 1, 3"a"^2 + 9"a" + 7),("a", 1, 1),(1, 0, 0)|` = 0
∴ a3(0 – 0) – (3a2 + 3a + 1) (0 – 1) + (3a2 + 9a + 7) (0 – 1) = 0
∴ –6a – 6 = 0,
∴ a = – 1
