For what value of $$x$$ will the matrix given below become singular? $$\left[ {\matrix{ 8 & x & 0 \cr 4 & 0 & 2 \cr {12} & 6 & 0 \cr } } \right]$$

The sum of the eigen values of the matrix $$\left[ {\matrix{ 1 & 1 & 3 \cr 1 & 5 & 1 \cr 3 & 1 & 1 \cr } } \right]$$ is

For the following set of simultaneous equations $$$1.5x - 0.5y + z = 2$$$ $$$4x + 2y + 3z = 9$$$ $$$7x + y + 5z = 10$$$

The eigen values of $$\left[ {\matrix{ 1 & 1 & 1 \cr 1 & 1 & 1 \cr 1 & 1 & 1 \cr } } \right]$$ are
