Let $A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & 1 & 2 \\ 1 & 2 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$ and $pC_{11} + 4C_{21} - 5C_{32} = -2$, where $C_{ij}$ denotes the cofactor of an element $a_{ij}$ of matrix $A$. Find the value of $p$.

Let $\alpha \beta \neq 0$ and $A = \begin{bmatrix} \beta & \alpha & 3 \\ \alpha & \alpha & \beta \\ -\beta & \alpha & 2\alpha \end{bmatrix}$. If $B = \begin{bmatrix} 3\alpha & -9 & 3\alpha \\ -\alpha & 7 & -2\alpha \\ -2\alpha & 5 & -2\beta \end{bmatrix}$ is the matrix of cofactors of the elements of $A$,then $\operatorname{det}(AB)$ is equal to.

If $A = [a_{ij}]_{3 \times 3} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 1 & 1 & 5 \\ 2 & 4 & 7 \end{bmatrix}$ and $A_{ij}$ is the cofactor of $a_{ij}$,then $a_{11} A_{21} + a_{12} A_{22} + a_{13} A_{23}$ is equal to

Find the minors and cofactors of the elements of the determinant $\left|\begin{array}{ccc}2 & -3 & 5 \\ 6 & 0 & 4 \\ 1 & 5 & -7\end{array}\right|$ and verify that $a_{11} A_{31}+a_{12} A_{32}+a_{13} A_{33}=0$.

If $A = \begin{bmatrix} x & 2 & 1 \\ -2 & y & 0 \\ 2 & 0 & -1 \end{bmatrix}$,where $x$ and $y$ are non-zero real numbers,$\text{trace}(A) = 0$,and $\det(A) = -6$,then the minor of the element $1$ (at position $a_{13}$) of $A$ is:

Using cofactors of elements of the second row,evaluate $\Delta = \left|\begin{array}{lll}5 & 3 & 8 \\ 2 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 2 & 3\end{array}\right|$.
