Given, $\left|\begin{array}{lll}<\text{br}> &1 &\text{amp; } 0 &\text{amp; } 0\\ <\text{br}>&2 &\text{amp; } 3 &\text{amp; } 4\\ <\text{br}>&5 &\text{amp; } -6 &\text{amp; x}<\text{br}> \end{array}\right|=45$
By operation of matrix (5),

$1(3\text{x}+24)=45$

$3\text{x}=21$

$\Rightarrow \text{x}=7$
