Evaluate: $\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+\lambda&\text{x}&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix}$

Answer

$\triangle=\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+\lambda&\text{x}&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix}$
$=\begin{vmatrix}\lambda&0&\text{x}\\-\lambda&\lambda&\text{x}\\0&-\lambda&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix} [$Applying $C_1 \rightarrow C_1 - C_2, C_2 \rightarrow C_2 - C_3]$
$=\begin{vmatrix}\lambda&0&\text{x}\\-\lambda&0&2\text{x}+\lambda\\0&-\lambda&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix} [$Applying $R_1 \rightarrow R_2 + R_3]$
$=\lambda\begin{vmatrix}0&2\text{x}+\lambda\\-\lambda&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix}+\text{x}\begin{vmatrix}-\lambda&0\\0&-\lambda\end{vmatrix}$
$=\lambda\big[\lambda(2\text{x}+\lambda)\big]+\text{x}\lambda^2$
$=\lambda^2(2\text{x}+\lambda+\lambda^2\text{x})$
$=3\lambda^2\text{x}+\lambda^3$
$=\lambda^2(3\text{x}+\lambda)$

An automobile manufacturer makes automobiles and trucks in a factory that is divided into two shops. Shop A, which performs the basic assembly operation, must work 5 man-days on each truck but only 2 man-days on each automobile. Shop B, which performs finishing operations, must work 3 man-days for each automobile or truck that it produces. Because of men and machine limitations, shop A has 180 man-days per week available while shop B has 135 man-days per week. If the manufacturer makes a profit of Rs 30000 on each truck and Rs 2000 on each automobile, how many of each should he produce to maximize his profit? Formulate this as a LPP.
