Question
Without expanding, show that the values of the following determinant are zero:
$\begin{vmatrix}49&1&6\\39&7&4\\26&2&3 \end{vmatrix}$

Answer

$\begin{vmatrix}49&1&6\\39&7&4\\26&2&3 \end{vmatrix}$
Applying: $\ce{C_1 \rightarrow C_1 + (-8)C_3}$
$=\begin{vmatrix}1&1&6\\7&7&4\\2&2&3 \end{vmatrix}=0$
$\because\text{C}_1=\text{C}_2$

A wholesale dealer deals in two kinds, $A$ and $B ($say$)$ of mixture of nuts. Each $\ kg$ of mixture $A$ contains $60$ grams of almonds$, 30$ grams of cashew nuts and $30$ grams of hazel nuts. Each $\ kg$ of mixture $B$ contains $30$ grams of almonds, $60$ grams of cashew nuts and $180$ grams of hazel nuts. The remainder of both mixtures is per nuts. The dealer is contemplating to use mixtures $A$ and $B$ to make a bag which will contain at least $240$ grams of almonds, $300$ grams of cashew nuts and $540$ grams of hazel nuts. Mixture A costs $Rs. 8$ per $\ kg. $and mixture $B$ costs $Rs. 12$ per $\ kg.$ Assuming that mixtures $A$ and $B$ are uniform, use graphical method to determine the number of $\ kg.$ of each mixture which he should use to minimise the cost of the bag.
