Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 256

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(|\text{adj}(2A)| = |2A|^{3-1}\) \(|\text{adj}(2A)| = |2A|^2\) \(|\text{adj}(2A)| = (2^3|A|)^2\) \(|\text{adj}(2A)| = (8|A|)^2\) \(|\text{adj}(2A)| = (8 \times 2)^2\) \(|\text{adj}(2A)| = (16)^2\) \(|\text{adj}(2A)| = 256\)
