  • 352
  • B
    356
  • C
    325
  • D
    532

Answer

Correct option: A.
352
$\Rightarrow|\text{A}|=\begin{bmatrix}2&5&9\\6&1&3\\4&8&2\end{bmatrix}$Evaluating along the first row, we get

$\triangle=2\begin{bmatrix}1&3\\8&2\end{bmatrix}-5\begin{bmatrix}6&3\\4&2\end{bmatrix}+9\begin{bmatrix}6&1\\4&8\end{bmatrix}$

$\triangle=2(2-24)-5(12-12)+9(48-4)$

$\triangle=2(-22)-0+9(44) $

$\triangle=-44+9(44)=44(-1+9)=352 $
