MCQ
Let the matrix $A$ and $B$ be defined as $A\, = \,\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  3&2 \\ 
  2&1 
\end{array}} \right]$ and $B\, = \,\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  3&1 \\ 
  7&3 
\end{array}} \right]$ , then the value of $det. \,(2A^9B^{-1}),$ is :-
  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $1$
  • C
    $-1$
  • $-2$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$-2$
d
$|A|=-1,|B|=2$

$\left| {2{A^9}{B^{ - 1}}} \right| = 4|A{|^9}|B{|^{ - 1}} =  - 2$
