    Let \[\Delta =\left| \begin{matrix}    1+{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{1}} & 1+{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{2}} & 1+{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{3}}  \\    1+{{x}_{2}}{{y}_{1}} & 1+{{x}_{2}}{{y}_{2}} & \,1+{{x}_{2}}{{y}_{3}}  \\    1+{{x}_{3}}{{y}_{1}} & 1+{{x}_{3}}{{y}_{2}} & 1+{{x}_{3}}{{y}_{3}}  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] then value of \[\Delta \] is

    A) \[{{x}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}{{x}_{3}}+{{y}_{1}}{{y}_{2}}{{y}_{3}}\]

    B) \[{{x}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}{{x}_{3}}{{y}_{1}}{{y}_{2}}{{y}_{3}}\]

    C) \[{{x}_{2}}{{x}_{3}}{{y}_{2}}{{y}_{3}}+{{x}_{3}}{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{3}}{{y}_{1}}+{{x}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}{{y}_{1}}{{y}_{2}}\]

    D) 0

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] We can write \[\Delta ={{\Delta }_{1}}+{{y}_{1}}{{\Delta }_{2}},\] where \[{{\Delta }_{1}}=\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & 1+{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{2}} & 1+{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{3}}  \\    1 & 1+{{x}_{2}}{{y}_{2}} & 1+{{x}_{2}}{{y}_{3}}  \\    1 & 1+{{x}_{3}}{{y}_{2}} & 1+{{x}_{3}}{{y}_{3}}  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] and \[{{\Delta }_{2}}=\left| \begin{matrix}    {{x}_{1}} & 1+{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{2}} & 1+{{x}_{1}}{{y}_{3}}  \\    {{x}_{2}} & 1+{{x}_{2}}{{y}_{2}} & 1+{{x}_{2}}{{y}_{3}}  \\    {{x}_{3}} & 1+{{x}_{3}}{{y}_{2}} & 1+{{x}_{3}}{{y}_{3}}  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] In \[{{\Delta }_{1}},\] use \[{{C}_{2}}\to {{C}_{2}}-{{C}_{1}}\] and \[{{C}_{3}}\to {{C}_{3}}-{{C}_{1}}\] so that, \[{{\Delta }_{1}}=\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & {{x}_{1}}{{y}_{2}} & {{x}_{1}}{{y}_{3}}  \\    1 & {{x}_{2}}{{y}_{2}} & {{x}_{2}}{{y}_{3}}  \\    1 & {{x}_{3}}{{y}_{2}} & {{x}_{3}}{{y}_{3}}  \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\] [\[\because \,\,\,{{C}_{2}}\] and \[{{C}_{3}}\] are proportional] In  \[{{\Delta }_{2}},\] us \[{{C}_{2}}\to {{C}_{2}}-{{y}_{2}}{{C}_{1}}\] and \[{{C}_{3}}\to {{C}_{3}}-{{y}_{3}}{{C}_{1}}\] to get \[{{\Delta }_{2}}=\left| \begin{matrix}    {{x}_{1}} & 1 & 1  \\    {{x}_{2}} & 1 & 1  \\    {{x}_{3}} & 1 & 1  \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\] [\[\because \,\,\,{{C}_{2}}\] and \[{{C}_{3}}\] are identical] \[\therefore \,\,\,\Delta =0\]
