Q60 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2022 (18 Jul Shift 2) · Mathematics

If x2+7x2+1x-2=Ax-2+Bx+Cx2+1 
then the determinant of the matrix ABC25 is

  • A
    5
  • B
    -5
  • C
    9425
  • Correct answer
    D
    -2

Solution

Given,

x2+7x2+1x-2=Ax-2+Bx+Cx2+1

⇒x2+7=Ax2+1+Bx+Cx-2 ....1

On taking x=2 we get,

⇒11=5A⇒A=115

Now comparing coefficient of x2 in equation 1 we get,

⇒1=A+B⇒B=1-115⇒B=-65

Now comparing constant term in equation 1 we get,

⇒7=A-2C⇒2C=115-7⇒C=-125

Now putting the value in ABC25=115-65-12525

⇒ABC25=115×25--65×-125=2225-7225=-5025=-2

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
