The tutor defines cofactor (aka signed minor) with an example. In my post from Nov 24, 2014 I tell how to evaluate a determinant by hand. Example: Evaluate the determinant of matrix A: 1 0 -7 0 2 1 3 …
The tutor tells how to have Excel evaluate a determinant for you. Here’s how: Key in your matrix values. Let’s imagine you use the range a1:d4. Select a cell away from the range, let’s say f6. Key in =mdeterm(a1:d4) then …
