Question

Let for i = 1, 2, 3, p_i(x) be a polynomial of degree 2 in x, p'_i(x) and p''_i(x) be the first and second order derivatives of p_i(x) respectively. Let A(x) = bmatrix p_1(x) & p'_1(x) & p''_1(x) _2(x) & p'_2(x) & p''_2(x) _3(x) & p'_3(x) & p''_3(x) bmatrix and B(x) = [A(x)]^TA(x). Then determinant of B(x) :
