If A and B are invertible matrices of order \(3,|A|=2\) and \(\left|(A B)^{-1}\right|=-\frac{1}{0}\), then the value of \(|B|\) is :

  1. A 3
  2. B \(-3\)
  3. C 2
  4. D \(\frac{1}{6}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(-3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \left|(AB)^{-1}\right| = \frac{1}{|AB|} \) \( -\frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{|A||B|} \) \( -\frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{2|B|} \) \( 2|B| = -6 \) \( |B| = -3 \)
