What is the determinant of the coefficient matrix of this system?

Answer:
Determinant of matrix = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
rewrite this system with matrices
[{4 , -3]
[8, -3]]
determinant = 4*(-3) - (-3)*8 = -12 + 24 = 12
are you finding the inverse too?
the system should look like A* v = C
where matrix A is
[{4 , -3]
[8, -3]]
and V = [x , y] vector
C = [-8, 12] vector
Answer:
Explanation: When the determinant of the coefficient matrix of a system of linear equations equals zero it means that at least one equation in the system is a scalar multiple of another equation. Hence it is not possible to find the inverse matrix and so the system cannot be solved.
