Compute Det of A where A = beginbmatrix 2 & -8 & 6 & 8 3 & -9 & 5 & 10 -3 & 0 & 1 & -2 1 & -4 & 0 & 6 endbmatrix

Compute Det of A where $A = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & -8 & 6 & 8 \ 3 & -9 & 5 & 10 \ -3 & 0 & 1 & -2 \ 1 & -4 & 0 & 6 \end{bmatrix}$ [5]

$$A = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & -8 & 6 & 8 \ 3 & -9 & 5 & 10 \ -3 & 0 & 1 & -2 \ 1 & -4 & 0 & 6 \end{bmatrix}$$ Rules used: - Adding a multiple of one row to another does not change the determinant. - Factoring scalar $k$ out of a row means the original determinant is $k$ times the reduced one. --- ...
