7   Det  = [ 5 * 3] - [5 * 2]   = 15 - 10  = 5

 

 

 

8  Det......copy the first two columns again

 

3   5   2   3   5

5   3   1   5   3

2   4   2   2   4

 

Multiply down the diagonals and sum the products

 

[ (3 * 3 * 2) + (5 * 1 * 2) + (2 * 5 * 4)]  =    [ 18 + 10 + 40 ]   =  68

 

Multiply up the diagonals and sum the products

 

[ (2 * 3 * 2) + (4 * 1 * 3)  + ( 2 * 5 * 5) ]  =  [ 12 + 12 + 50] =  74

 

Subtract the second result from the first

 

Det  = 68 - 74   = - 6

 

 

cool cool cool
