Question 17 Given that A = [ššš] is a square matrix of order 3 Ć 3 and |A| = ā7, then the value of ā_(š=1)^3ā"šš2š“š2 " , where š“šš denotes the cofactor of element ššš is: (a) 7 (b) ā7 (c) 0 (d) 49 Now, = š_šš šØ_šš+š_šš šØ_šš+š_šš šØ_šš = Sum of product of elements of Row R2 with its corresponding cofactors = Determinant of A = |A| = 7 So, the correct answer is (B)
