Let f1 (x) = x + a, f2 (x) = x2 + bx + c and
∆ = \[\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ \mathrm{f}_{1}\left(\mathrm{x}_{1}\right) & \mathrm{f}_{1}\left(\mathrm{x}_{2}\right) & \mathrm{f}_{1}\left(\mathrm{x}_{3}\right) \\ \mathrm{f}_{2}\left(\mathrm{x}_{1}\right) & \mathrm{f}_{2}\left(\mathrm{x}_{2}\right) & \mathrm{f}_{2}\left(\mathrm{x}_{3}\right) \end{array}\right|\], then
  1. is independent of a
  2. is independent of b and c
  3. is independent of x1, x2, x3
  4. none of the above

Answer

(A) ∆ is independent of a, (B) ∆ is independent of b and c
