If $\triangle=\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{x}&\text{x}^2\\1&\text{y}&\text{y}^2\\1&\text{z}&\text{z}^2\end{vmatrix},$ $\triangle_1=\begin{vmatrix}1&1&1\\\text{yz}&\text{zx}&\text{xy}\\\text{x}&\text{y}&\text{z}\end{vmatrix},$ then prove that $\triangle+\triangle_1=0$

Answer

$\triangle+\triangle_1=\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{x}&\text{x}^2\\1&\text{y}&\text{y}^2\\1&\text{z}&\text{z}^2\end{vmatrix}+\begin{vmatrix}1&1&1\\\text{yz}&\text{zx}&\text{xy}\\\text{x}&\text{y}&\text{z}\end{vmatrix}$
$=\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{x}&\text{x}^2\\1&\text{y}&\text{y}^2\\1&\text{z}&\text{z}^2\end{vmatrix}+\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{yz}&\text{x}\\1&\text{zx}&\text{y}\\1&\text{xy}&\text{z} \end{vmatrix}$
$[$Interchanging rows and coloumns in $\triangle_1]$
$=\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{x}&\text{x}^2\\1&\text{y}&\text{y}^2\\1&\text{z}&\text{z}^2\end{vmatrix}-\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{x}&\text{yz}\\1&\text{y}&\text{zx}\\1&\text{z}&\text{xy} \end{vmatrix}$
$[$Applying $\text{C}_2\leftrightarrow\text{C}_3$ in $\triangle_1]$
$=\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{x}&\text{x}^2\\0&\text{y}-\text{x}&\text{y}^2-\text{x}^2\\0&\text{z}-\text{x}&\text{z}^2-\text{x}^2\end{vmatrix}-\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{x}&\text{yz}\\0&\text{y}-\text{x}&\text{zx}-\text{yz}\\0&\text{z}-\text{x}&\text{xy}-\text{yz}\end{vmatrix}$
$[$Applying $R_2 \rightarrow R_2 - R_1$ and $R_3 \rightarrow R_3 - R_1]$
$=(\text{y}-\text{x})(\text{z}-\text{x})\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{x}&\text{x}^2\\0&1&\text{y}+\text{x}\\0&1&\text{z}+\text{x}\end{vmatrix}-(\text{y}-\text{x})(\text{z}-\text{x})\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{x}&\text{yz}\\0&1&-\text{z}\\0&1&-\text{y}\end{vmatrix}$
$[$Taking $(y - x)$ common from $R_2$ and $(z - x)$ common from $R_3]$
$=(\text{y}-\text{x})(\text{z}-\text{x})(\text{z}+\text{x}-\text{y}-\text{x})-(\text{y}-\text{x})(\text{z}-\text{x})(-\text{y}+\text{z})$
$[$Expanding along first column$]$
$=(\text{y}-\text{x})(\text{z}-\text{x})(\text{z}-\text{y})(1-1)$
$=0$
$\therefore\ \triangle+\triangle_1=0$

A company produces two types of leather belts, say type $A$ and $B.$ Belt $A$ is a superior quality and belt $B$ is of a lower quality. Profits on each type of belt are $Rs. 2$ and $Rs. 1.50$ per belt, respectively. Each belt of type $A$ requires twice as much time as required by a belt of type $B.$ If all belts were of type $B,$ the company could produce $1000$ belts per day. But the supply of leather is sufficient only for $800$ belts per day $($both $A$ and $B$ combined$).$ Belt $A$ requires a fancy buckle and only $400$ fancy buckles are available for this per day. For belt of type $B,$ only $700$ buckles are available per day.
How should the company manufacture the two types of belts in order to have a maximum overall profit?
