Correct answer

C. 6464

Step-by-step solution

Given, AB=IAB = I and ∣A∣=18\left|A\right| = \dfrac{1}{8}

Now by using property adj(PQ)=(adjQ)(adjP)adj\left(PQ\right) = \left(adj Q\right)\left(adj P\right) we get, \left|adj \left(B \cdot adj 2A\right)\right| = \left|adj \left(adj 2A\right)\right|\left|adj B\right| . . . \left(i\right)</p><p>Now∣adj(adj2A)∣=∣adj2A∣2</p><p>Now \left|adj\left(adj2A\right)\right| = {\left|adj2A\right|}^{2} =∣2A∣4= {\left|2A\right|}^{4}

=∣23∣4∣A∣4=(23)4∣A∣4=84∣A∣4...(ii)= {\left|{2}^{3}\right|}^{4}{\left|A\right|}^{4} = {\left({2}^{3}\right)}^{4}{\left|A\right|}^{4} = {8}^{4}{\left|A\right|}^{4} . . . \left(ii\right)

{Property used \left|adj A\right| = {\left|A\right|}^{n - 1} and ∣kA∣=kn∣A∣\left|kA\right| = {k}^{n}\left|A\right| where nn is order of matrix}

Now \left|adj B\right| = {\left|B\right|}^{2} . . . . . . . . . . . . .
