    If\[x\]is a positive integer, then the value of \[\Delta =\left| \begin{matrix}    x! & (x+1)! & (x+2)!\grave{\ }  \\    (x+1)! & (x+2)! & (x+3)!  \\    (x+2)! & (x+3)! & (x+4)!  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\]is

    A)  \[2.x!(x+1)!(x+2)!\]

    B)  \[2.(x+1)!(x+2)!(x+3)!\]

    C)  \[2x!(x+3)!\]

    D)  \[2x!(x+1)!\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Given, \[=\left| \begin{matrix}    x! & (x+1)! & (x+2)!  \\    (x+1)! & (x+2)! & (x+3)!  \\    (x+2)! & (x+3)! & (x+4)!  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] \[=\left| \begin{matrix}    x! & (x+1)! & (x+2)(x+1)x!  \\    (x+1)! & (x+2)(x+1)! & (x+3)(x+2)(x+1)!  \\    (x+2)! & (x+3)(x+2)! & (x+4)(x+3)(x+2)!  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] \[=x!(x+1)!(x+2)!\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & x+1 & (x+2)(x+1)  \\    1 & x+2 & (x+3)(x+2)  \\    1 & x+3 & (x+3)(x+4)  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] \[=x!(x+1)!(x+2)!\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & x+1 & (x+2)(x+3)  \\    0 & 1 & 2(x+2)  \\    0 & 1 & 2(x+3)  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] \[\left[ \begin{align}   & {{R}_{2}}\to {{R}_{2}}-{{R}_{1}} \\  & {{R}_{3}}\to {{R}_{3}}-{{R}_{2}} \\ \end{align} \right]\] \[=x!(x+1)!(x+2)![1\{2(x+3)-2(x+2)\}]\] \[=x!(x+1)!(x+2)![2a+6-2x-4]\] \[=2.x!(x+1)!(x+2)!\]
