  • A
    4
  • B
    8
  • C
    16
  • 32

Answer

Correct option: D.
32
$\begin{vmatrix}\text{p}+\text{x}&\text{a}+\text{x}&\text{a}+\text{p}\\\text{q}+\text{y}&\text{b}+\text{y}&\text{b}+\text{q}\\\text{r}+\text{z}&\text{c}+\text{z}&\text{c}+\text{r}\end{vmatrix}=\begin{vmatrix}\text{p}&\text{a}&\text{a}\\\text{q}&\text{b}&\text{b}\\\text{r}&\text{c}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}+​​​​\begin{vmatrix}\text{p}&\text{a}&\text{p}\\\text{q}&\text{b}&\text{q}\\\text{r}&\text{c}&\text{r}\end{vmatrix}\begin{vmatrix}\text{p}&\text{x}&\text{a}\\\text{q}&\text{y}&\text{b}\\\text{r}&\text{z}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}\\+​​​​\begin{vmatrix}\text{p}&\text{x}&\text{p}\\\text{q}&\text{y}&\text{q}\\\text{r}&\text{z}&\text{r}\end{vmatrix}+​​​​\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}&\text{a}&\text{a}\\\text{y}&\text{b}&\text{b}\\\text{r}&\text{c}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}+​​​​\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}&\text{a}&\text{p}\\\text{y}&\text{b}&\text{q}\\\text{r}&\text{c}&\text{r}\end{vmatrix}+​​​​\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{a}\\\text{y}&\text{y}&\text{b}\\\text{z}&\text{z}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}+​​​​\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{p}\\\text{y}&\text{y}&\text{q}\\\text{z}&\text{z}&\text{r}\end{vmatrix}$

$=0+0+\begin{vmatrix}\text{p}&\text{x}&\text{a}\\\text{q}&\text{y}&\text{b}\\\text{r}&\text{z}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}+0+0+\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}&\text{a}&\text{p}\\\text{y}&\text{b}&\text{q}\\\text{z}&\text{c}&\text{r}\end{vmatrix}+0+0$

$=\begin{vmatrix}\text{p}&\text{x}&\text{a}\\\text{q}&\text{y}&\text{b}\\\text{r}&\text{z}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}+\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}&\text{a}&\text{p}\\\text{y}&\text{b}&\text{q}\\\text{z}&\text{c}&\text{r}\end{vmatrix}$

$=2\begin{vmatrix}\text{a}&\text{p}&\text{x}\\\text{b}&\text{q}&\text{y}\\\text{c}&\text{r}&\text{z}\end{vmatrix}$

$=2\times16=32$

Hence, the correct option is (b)
