x&{ - 6}&{ - 1}\\
2&{ - 3x}&{x - 3}\\
{ - 3}&{2x}&{x = 2}
\end{array}} \right| = 0$ is equal to

D

$1$

(JEE MAIN-2019)

Solution

By expansion, we get 

$ – 5{x^3} + 30x – 30 + 5x = 0$

$ \Rightarrow  – 5{x^3} + 35x – 30 = 0$

$ \Rightarrow {x^3} – 7x + 6 = 0$, All roots srea real 

So, sum of roots $=0$
