    A     root     of     the     equation  \[\left| \begin{matrix}    3-x & -6 & 3  \\    -6 & 3-x & 3  \\    3 & 3 & -6-x  \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\] is given by

    A)  \[x=0\]         

    B)  \[x=6\]

    C)  \[x=3\]         

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Given that,  \[\left| \begin{matrix}    3-x & -6 & 3  \\    -6 & 3-x & 3  \\    3 & 3 & -6-x  \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\] Applying \[({{R}_{1}}\to {{R}_{1}}-{{R}_{2}})\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\left| \begin{matrix}    9-x & -9+x & 0  \\    -6 & 3-x & 3  \\    3 & 3 & -6-x  \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\] Taking out \[(9-x)\] common from \[{{R}_{1}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[(9-x)\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & -1 & 0  \\    -6 & 3-x & 3  \\    3 & 3 & -6-x  \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\] Applying \[({{C}_{1}}\to {{C}_{1}}+{{C}_{2}})\] \[\Rightarrow \]  \[(9-x)\left| \begin{matrix}    0 & -1 & 0  \\    -3-x & 3-x & 3  \\    6 & 3 & -6-x  \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[(9-x)[1\{(-6-x)(-3-x)-3\times 6\}]=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]  \[(9-x)(18+6x+3x+{{x}^{2}}-18)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[(9-x)({{x}^{2}}+9x)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[(9-x)x(x+9)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x=0,\,\,9,-9\]
