    If 5 is one root of the equations \[\left| \begin{matrix}    x & 3 & 7  \\    2 & x & -2  \\    7 & 8 & x  \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0,\] then the other two roots of the equation are:

    A) \[-2,-7\]                              

    B) \[-2,7\]

    C)  \[2,-7\]                               

    D) \[2,7\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\left| \begin{matrix}    x & 3 & 7  \\    2 & x & -2  \\    7 & 8 & x  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[x({{x}^{2}}+16)-3(2x+14)+7(16-7x)=0\] \[{{x}^{3}}+16x-6x-42+112-49x=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{x}^{3}}-39x+70=0\] \[(x-5)({{x}^{2}}+5x-14)=0\Rightarrow x=5\] \[{{x}^{2}}+7x-2x-14=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[x(x+7)-2(x+7)=0\] \[x=2,-7\]
