Why my answer is not matching with the answer ,where did I go wrong, I calculated the tr and det , I followed the lecture notes too

You should be able to spot the typos?
The "ad" term is positive (two negatives) so the factor will cancel.
The trace is the sum of the diagonal elements. If your notes say otherwise ...

may be worth using to check your working.

Can you upload your notes page before as well so the problem is clearly defined. Not sure your lecture notes are correct either.

I tried to do the calculation but I'm not getting the same answer as what I've sent in the first attachment

Im getting lost. In the OP, can you post the page before that one (second image, the typed one that starts with "steady states"), not different ones.

I know. It looks like both you and your notes are wrong.
Can you post the full question regarding this jacobian.

From a very quick look, starting with the nondimensional equations, I agree with the Jacobian in the notes, but the det and tr are not correct. The correct values are in the wolframalpha link I posted earlier.

Thank you, these should be the answers, I will try to solve it again.
