If y(x) = vmatrix x & x & x+ x+1 \ 27 & 28 & 27 \ 1 & 1 & 1 vmatrix, x R, then d2ydx2 + y is equal to

  1. 28
  2. 27
  3. -1
  4. 1

Answer

(3) -1

Solution

Applying C3 C3 - C1 - C2:

y = vmatrix x & x & 1 \ 27 & 28 & -28 \ 1 & 1 & -1 vmatrix

Expanding along R1:

y = x(-28 + 28) - x(-27 + 28) + 1(27 - 28)

y = - x - 1

d2ydx2 = x

d2ydx2 + y = x - x - 1 = -1
