Lets call the above DETERMINANT D.


D =0


one of the roots of D is x= -9.

after solving the determinant I get,


x3 - 67x -126 = 0

Factorize it. It is easy since you are given one of the roots:

x3 - 67x -126 = 0


I think that should be x3 - 67x +126 = 0 as x=-9 doesnot satisfy the equation you got. Kindly check it.


So now the equation x3 - 67x +126 = 0


(x+9)(x2-9x+14)=0


(x+9)(x-7)(x-2)=0


So the other roots are 7 and 2


 


It is also  possible that x=-9 can be a typo. In that case the above answer is correct.
