Step 2.16.2.5.1

Multiply $11$ by $1$ .

$a_{44} = 0 + 0 + 11$

Step 2.16.2.5.2

Add $0$ and $0$ .

$a_{44} = 0 + 11$

Step 2.16.2.5.3

Add $0$ and $11$ .

$a_{44} = 11$

Step 2.17

The cofactor matrix is a matrix of the minors with the sign changed for the elements in the $-$ positions on the sign chart.

$[\begin{array}{c} - 3 & - 2 & - 5 & 14 \\ 0 & 0 & 5 & - 5 \\ 0 & 0 & - 5 & 0 \\ - 2 & - 3 & - 5 & 11 \end{array}]$
