Question:
24. Evaluate the determinant of A where *xi* = *i* and *k* = 4.
$$
A =
\begin{bmatrix}
1 & 1 & 1 & \cdots & 1 \\
x_1 & x_2 & x_3 & \cdots & x_k \\
x_1^2 & x_2^2 & x_3^2 & \cdots & x_k^2 \\
\vdots & \vdots & \vdots & & \vdots \\
x_1^{k-1} & x_2^{k-1} & x_3^{k-1} & \cdots & x_k^{k-1}
\end{bmatrix}
