Solution 1

(a) To find the determinant of a 4x4 matrix, we can use the method of cofactor expansion. However, in this case, the matrix has a lot of zeros, which simplifies the process. We can expand along the first row:

det(A) = k * det(3x3 submatrix) - (-k) * det(3x3 submatrix) + 3 * det(3x3 submatrix) + 0
