Question
Using the properties of determinants:
$\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+4&\text{x}&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}+4&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+4\end{vmatrix}$
✓

Answer

We have, $\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+4&\text{x}&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}+4&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+4\end{vmatrix}$ $=\begin{vmatrix}2\text{x}+4&2\text{x}+4&2\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}+4&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+4\end{vmatrix}$ $\big[\text{R}_1\rightarrow\text{R}_1+\text{R}_2\big]$$\begin{vmatrix}2\text{x}&2\text{x}&2\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}+4&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+4\end{vmatrix}+\begin{vmatrix}4&4&4\\\text{x}&\text{x}+4&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+4\end{vmatrix}$
$=2\text{x}\begin{vmatrix}1&1&1\\\text{x}&\text{x}+4&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+4\end{vmatrix}+4\begin{vmatrix}1&1&0\\\text{x}&\text{x}+4&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+4\end{vmatrix}$ [Taking 2x and 4 common from $R_1$]
$=2\text{x}\begin{vmatrix}0&0&1\\0&4&\text{x}\\-4&-4&\text{x}+4\end{vmatrix}+4\begin{vmatrix}0&1&0\\-4&\text{x}+4&\text{x}\\0&\text{x}&\text{x}+4\end{vmatrix}$ [$C_1 \rightarrow C_1 - C_3$ and $C_2 \rightarrow C_2 - C_3$ in first and $C_1 \rightarrow C_1 - C_2$ in second determinant]
Expanding along $C_1$, we get
$2\text{x}[-4(-4)]+4[4(\text{x}+4-0)]$
$=32\text{x}+16\text{x}+64$
$=16(3\text{x}+4)$

There are two types of fertilisers 'A' and 'B'. 'A' consists of 12% nitrogen and 5% phosphoric acid whereas 'B' consists of 4% nitrogen and 5% phosphoric acid. After testing the soil conditions, farmer finds that he needs at least 12kg of nitrogen and 12kg of phosphoric acid for his crops. If 'A' costs Rs. 10 per kg and 'B' cost Rs. 8 per kg, then graphically determine how much of each type of fertiliser should be used so that nutrient requiremnets are met at a minimum cost.
