just want to know if I have done this right and if have the right answer


| 2 0 0 0 0 0|
|13 -2 0 0 0 0|
| 0 0 2 0 5 61|
| 0 0 0 1 7 17|
| 0 0 0 0 -1 -11|
| 0 0 0 0 0 -2 |
= (0)(0)(5)(17)(0)(0) + (0)(0)(0)(7)(-11)(0) + (2)(-2)(2)(1)(-1)(-2) – (0)(0)(0)(0)(0)(0) – (0)(0)(1)(5)(0)(2) – (0)(0)(7)(61)(13)(0)

=(0) + (0) + (-12) – (0) – (0) – (0) = -12 so determinant = -12
