Solution

The correct option is A independent of m and n
∣ ∣ ∣ ∣xmn1axn1abx1abc1∣ ∣ ∣ ∣=0
Applying R4R4R3 and expanding
∣ ∣ ∣ ∣xmn1axn1abx100cx0∣ ∣ ∣ ∣=(cx)∣ ∣xm1ax1ab1∣ ∣=0
Applying R3R3R2 and expanding
(cx)∣ ∣xm1ax1ab1∣ ∣=(cx)∣ ∣xm1ax10bx0∣ ∣(cx)(bx)(xa)=0
Hence, roots of the quation are independent of m and n.
