Prove that

$\Delta=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
a+b x & c+d x & p+q x \\
a x+b & c x+d & p x+q \\
u & v & w
\end{array}\right|=\left(1-x^{2}\right)\left|\begin{array}{lll}
a & c & p \\
b & d & q \\
u & v & m
\end{array}\right|$

If ${a^{ – 1}} + {b^{ – 1}} + {c^{ – 1}} = 0$ such that $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{1 + a}&1&1\\1&{1 + b}&1\\1&1&{1 + c}\end{array}\,} \right| = \lambda $, then the value of $\lambda $is

For a non – zero, real $a, b$ and $c$ $\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\frac{{{a^2} + {b^2}}}{c}}&c&c\\a&{\frac{{{b^2} + {c^2}}}{a}}&a\\b&b&{\frac{{{c^2} + {a^2}}}{b}} \end{array}} \right|$ $= \alpha \, abc$, then the values of $\alpha$ is

$\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{x + 1}&{x + 2}&{x + 4}\\{x + 3}&{x + 5}&{x + 8}\\{x + 7}&{x + 10}&{x + 14}\end{array}\,} \right| = $
