Solution
The correct option is
A
x
=
0
Let
Δ
=
∣
∣ ∣
∣
0
x
−
a
x
−
b
x
+
a
0
x
−
c
x
+
b
x
+
c
0
∣
∣ ∣
∣
On putting
x
=
a
, we get
Δ
=

a

a

∣
∣ ∣

=
(
a
+
c
)
(
a
+
b
)
(
a
−
c
)
Clearly
Δ
≠
0
on expansion along second column, so that
x
=
a
does not satisfy the equation
Δ
=
0
.
Similarly
x
=
b
and
x
=
c
also do not satisfy.
Now, put
x
=
0
, we get
Δ
=
∣

a

−

c

∣

=

Hence,
x
=
0
satisfies the equation
Δ
=
0
.
