Suppose the vectors x1,x2{x}_{1},{x}_{2}x1​,x2​ and x3{x}_{3}x3​ are the solutions of the system of linear equations, Ax=bAx=bAx=b when the vector bbb on the right side is equal to b1,b2{b}_{1},{b}_{2}b1​,b2​ and b3{b}_{3}b3​ respectively. If x1=[111],x2=[021],x3=[001]{x}_{1}=[\begin{matrix}1 \\ 1 \\ 1\end{matrix}],{x}_{2}=[\begin{matrix}0 \\ 2 \\ 1\end{matrix}],{x}_{3}=[\begin{matrix}0 \\ 0 \\ 1\end{matrix}]x1​=[111​],x2​=[021​],x3​=[001​]; b1=[100],b2=[020],b3=[002]{b}_{1}=[\begin{matrix}1 \\ 0 \\ 0\end{matrix}],{b}_{2}=[\begin{matrix}0 \\ 2 \\ 0\end{matrix}],{b}_{3}=[\begin{matrix}0 \\ 0 \\ 2\end{matrix}]b1​=[100​],b2​=[020​],b3​=[002​], then the determinant of AAA is equal to
