    \[f(x)=\left| \begin{matrix}    {{x}^{3}} & {{x}^{4}} & 3{{x}^{2}}  \\    1 & -6 & 4  \\    p & {{p}^{2}} & {{p}^{3}}  \\ \end{matrix} \right|,\] here p is a constant,  then\[\frac{{{d}^{3}}f(x)}{d{{x}^{3}}}\]is:

    A)  proportional to \[{{x}^{2}}\]

    B)  proportional to \[x\]

    C)  proportional to \[{{x}^{3}}\]

    D)  a constant

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    We have \[f(x)=\left| \begin{matrix}    {{x}^{3}} & {{x}^{4}} & 3{{x}^{2}}  \\    1 & -6 & 4  \\    p & {{p}^{2}} & {{p}^{3}}  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[f(x)={{x}^{3}}(-6{{p}^{3}}-4{{p}^{2}})-{{x}^{4}}({{p}^{3}}-4p)\] \[+\,3{{x}^{2}}({{p}^{2}}+6p)\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{d}{dx}f(x)=3{{x}^{2}}(-6{{p}^{3}}-4{{p}^{2}})-4{{x}^{3}}\] \[\times \,({{p}^{3}}-4p)+6x({{p}^{2}}+6p)\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{{{d}^{2}}}{d{{x}^{2}}}f(x)=6x(-6{{p}^{3}}-4{{p}^{2}})\]                                 \[-12{{x}^{2}}({{p}^{3}}-4p)+6({{p}^{2}}+6p)\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{{{d}^{3}}}{d{{x}^{3}}}f(x)=6(-6{{p}^{3}}-4{{p}^{2}})-24x({{p}^{3}}-4p)\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{{{d}^{3}}}{d{{x}^{3}}}f(x)\]is proportional to \[x.\]
