If \(P\) and \(Q\) are two invertible matrices of the same order, then \(\operatorname{Adj}(Q P)\) is equal to

  1. A \(|\mathrm{P}||\mathrm{Q}| \mathrm{P}^{-1} \mathrm{Q}^{-1}\)
  2. B \(|P||Q|(P Q)^{-1}\)
  3. C \(|P||Q| \operatorname{Adj}(P Q)\)
  4. D \(|\mathrm{P}||\mathrm{Q}| \operatorname{Adj}(\mathrm{QP})\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(|\mathrm{P}||\mathrm{Q}| \mathrm{P}^{-1} \mathrm{Q}^{-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\operatorname{Adj}(QP) = |QP|(QP)^{-1}\) \(\operatorname{Adj}(QP) = |Q||P|P^{-1}Q^{-1}\)
