Answer

The value of $d_{21}$ is \(\boxed{1}\).

Steps

Step 1 :Consider the following matrix: \[ D=\left[\begin{array}{ccc} -1 & -13 & -2 \\ 1 & 3 & -5 \\ 9 & -10 & 7 \end{array}\right] \]

Step 2 :Determine the value of $d_{21}$, if possible. If the element indicated is not in the matrix, state 'None'.

Step 3 :The element $d_{21}$ refers to the element in the 2nd row and 1st column of the matrix D. We can directly read this value from the matrix.

Step 4 :The value of $d_{21}$ is \(\boxed{1}\).
