Detailed Solution

Given the matrix A is a square matrix of order 3 and having the determinant 4. Suppose that A=a1a2a3b1b2b3c1c2c3    and 2A=2a12a22a32b12b22b32c12c22c3   Perform the operation R2→2R2 +5R3 on the matrix 2AThe equivalent matrix is 2A=2a12a22a34b1+10c14b2+10c24b3+10c32c12c22c3   Hence, 2A=2a12a22a34b14b24b32c12c22c3+0         · Two rows are equal in the other matrix, so it is zero=242A=164=64Det (B) is 64.
