If Δr=∣r2r−13r−2n2n−1a12n(n−1)(n−1)212(n−1)(3n−4)∣\Delta_{\mathrm{r}}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}\mathrm{r} & 2 \mathrm{r}-1 & 3 \mathrm{r}-2 \\ \frac{\mathrm{n}}{2} & \mathrm{n}-1 & \mathrm{a} \\ \frac{1}{2} \mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}-1) & (\mathrm{n}-1)^2 & \frac{1}{2}(\mathrm{n}-1)(3 \mathrm{n}-4)\end{array}\right|
then the value of ∑r=1n−1Δr\sum_{\mathrm{r}=1}^{\mathrm{n}-1} \Delta_{\mathrm{r}}
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
is independent of both a and n
Option D (is independent of both a and n) is correct because the summation of the determinants results in a determinant with two identical rows, making its value zero, thus independent of a and n.
