Question

calculate the determinant for
1² 2² 3² 4²
2² 3² 4² 5²
3² 4² 5² 6²
4² 5² 6² 7²

Answer 1

Just to clarify is that indeed a matrix? :-)

Answer 2

yes it is matrix

Answer 3

actually i reduced this by eliminating the fisrt elements of first rows and reduced the matrix to
1 4 9 16
0 7 20 39
0 20 56 95
0 39 108 207

Answer 4

\[\left[\begin{matrix}a & b \\ c & d\end{matrix}\right] \rightarrow determinant=a*d-b*c\]

\[\left[\begin{matrix}a & b & c \\ d & e & f \\ g & h & i\end{matrix}\right] \rightarrow determinate=a(ei-hf)-d(bi-hc)+g(bf-ec)\]

\[\left[\begin{matrix}a & b & c & d \\ e & f & g & h \\ i & j & k & l\end{matrix}\right] \rightarrow determinate=???\] ² 2² 3² z 2\(^2\)
