Wyznacznik $\left[\begin{array}{cc}4 & 7\\7 & 9\end{array}\right]$

Oblicz $\left|\begin{array}{cc}4 & 7\\7 & 9\end{array}\right|$.

Wyznacznikiem macierzy 2x2 jest $\left|\begin{array}{cc}a & b\\c & d\end{array}\right| = a d - b c$.

$\left|\begin{array}{cc}4 & 7\\7 & 9\end{array}\right| = \left(4\right)\cdot \left(9\right) - \left(7\right)\cdot \left(7\right) = -13$

$\left|\begin{array}{cc}4 & 7\\7 & 9\end{array}\right| = -13$A
