        B is the matrix          ⌈  3      1  −3⌉         ∣  1      2a   1  ∣         ⌊  0       2    a ⌋   i.find the value of a for which B is       singular             ii.determine whether or not                 ⌈x ⌉         ⌈ −3.5⌉     B        ∣y  ∣  =    ∣      5.5∣  has the                 ⌊ z  ⌋        ⌊       5  ⌋  solution for each of the value of obtai  ned in (i) above

 determinant ((3,1,(−3)),(1,(2a),1),(0,2,a))  =3(2a^2 −2)−1(a+6)  =6a^2 −6−a−6  ∣B∣=0  6a^2 −a−12=0  a=((1±(√(1−4(6)(−12))))/(12))=((1±17)/(12))  a=(3/2),−(4/3)

$$\begin{vmatrix}{\mathrm{3}}&{\mathrm{1}}&{−\mathrm{3}}\\{\mathrm{1}}&{\mathrm{2}{a}}&{\mathrm{1}}\\{\mathrm{0}}&{\mathrm{2}}&{{a}}\end{vmatrix} \\ $$$$=\mathrm{3}\left(\mathrm{2}{a}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2}\right)−\mathrm{1}\left({a}+\mathrm{6}\right) \\ $$$$=\mathrm{6}{a}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{6}−{a}−\mathrm{6} \\ $$$$\mid{B}\mid=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{6}{a}^{\mathrm{2}} −{a}−\mathrm{12}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${a}=\frac{\mathrm{1}\pm\sqrt{\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{4}\left(\mathrm{6}\right)\left(−\mathrm{12}\right)}}{\mathrm{12}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}\pm\mathrm{17}}{\mathrm{12}} \\ $$$${a}=\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}},−\frac{\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$
