Question
Prove that $\left|\begin{array}{cc}x^2+x+1 & x+1 \\ x & x-1\end{array}\right|=x^3-x^2-x-1$
✓

Answer

Suppose that $\Delta=\left|\begin{array}{cc}x^2+x+1 & x+1 \\ x & x-1\end{array}\right|$
expanding the determinant $\Delta=\left(x^2+x+1\right)(x-1)-(x+1) x$
$=x^3-1-x^2-x$
$=x^3-x^2-x-1 \text { Hence proved. }$
