The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the determinant and find the roots of the equation given that one root is \( x = -4 \). ### Step 1: Set up the determinant We have the determinant: \[ \Delta = \begin{vmatrix} x & 2 & 3 \\ 1 & x & 1 \\ 3 & 2 & x \end{vmatrix} \] We need to find the value of this determinant and set it equal to zero. ### Step 2: Expand the determinant We can expand the determinant using the first row: \[ \Delta = x \begin{vmatrix} x & 1 \\ 2 & x \end{vmatrix} - 2 \begin{vmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 3 & x \end{vmatrix} + 3 \begin{vmatrix} 1 & x \\ 3 & 2 \end{vmatrix} \] Calculating each of the 2x2 determinants: 1. \(\begin{vmatrix} x & 1 \\ 2 & x \end{vmatrix} = x^2 - 2\) 2. \(\begin{vmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 3 & x \end{vmatrix} = x - 3\) 3. \(\begin{vmatrix} 1 & x \\ 3 & 2 \end{vmatrix} = 2 - 3x\) Substituting these back into the determinant: \[ \Delta = x(x^2 - 2) - 2(x - 3) + 3(2 - 3x) \] ### Step 3: Simplify the expression Now, we simplify: \[ \Delta = x^3 - 2x - 2x + 6 + 6 - 9x \] Combining like terms: \[ \Delta = x^3 - 13x + 12 \] ### Step 4: Set the determinant to zero Since we know that \( x = -4 \) is a root, we substitute \( x = -4 \) into the equation: \[ (-4)^3 - 13(-4) + 12 = 0 \] Calculating this: \[ -64 + 52 + 12 = 0 \] This confirms that \( x = -4 \) is indeed a root. ### Step 5: Factor the polynomial Now, we can factor the polynomial \( x^3 - 13x + 12 \) using synthetic division or polynomial long division by \( x + 4 \): \[ x^3 - 13x + 12 = (x + 4)(x^2 - 4x + 3) \] ### Step 6: Factor the quadratic Next, we factor the quadratic \( x^2 - 4x + 3 \): \[ x^2 - 4x + 3 = (x - 1)(x - 3) \] ### Step 7: Write the complete factorization Thus, the complete factorization of the polynomial is: \[ (x + 4)(x - 1)(x - 3) = 0 \] ### Step 8: Find the other roots Setting each factor to zero gives us the roots: 1. \( x + 4 = 0 \) → \( x = -4 \) (given root) 2. \( x - 1 = 0 \) → \( x = 1 \) (other root) 3. \( x - 3 = 0 \) → \( x = 3 \) (other root) ### Final Answer The other two roots are \( x = 1 \) and \( x = 3 \). ---
