If A is a 3 3 matrix such that |5 adj A|=5 , then |A| is equal to
Options
- A1
- B1 / 25
- C1 / 5
- D5
Correct answer
C. 1 / 5
Step-by-step solution
Given, A is a 3 3 matrix and |5 Adj (A)|=5 aligned & |5 adj (A)|=5 5^3| adj (A)|=5 & | adj (A)|= 1 5^2 |A|³⁻¹= 1 5^2 & |A|^2= ( 1 5 )^2 |A|= 1 5 aligned
