[5 -2 -4]
[3 -1 -3]

That's not a determinant.  A determinant MUST have the
same number of rows as it has columns.  This has only 2 rows
(going left to right) but 3 columns (going top to bottom). 
Maybe you left out the third row.  If you put the complete
determinant in the thank-you note below I will help you.
