*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 3x & -2 \\ 0 & -2 & -2 \\ 6 & \,\,5\ & \,x \end{vmatrix}\ =\ 716]


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 3x & -2 \\ 0 & -2 & -2 \\ 6 & \,\,5\ & \,x \end{vmatrix}\ \begin{matrix} 2 & 3x \\ 0 & -2 \\ 6 & \,5\end{matrix}] 


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ (2*-2*x\ +\ 3*-2*6\ +\ -2*0*5)\ -\ (6*-2*-2\ +\ 5*-2*2\ +\ x*0*3x)\ =\ -4x\ -\ 36x\ +\ 0\ -\ 24\ +\ 20\ +\ 0]


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ -40x\ -\ 4\ =\ 716]


Solve for *[tex \Large x]
