Let \( |A|=6 \) where A is a \( 3 \times 3 \) matrix. If \( |adj(3adj(A^{2} \cdot adj(2A)))|=2^{m} \cdot 3^{n} \), \( m, n \in N \), then \( m+n \) is equal to:

  1. A 60
  2. B 62
  3. C 64
  4. D 66
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 62

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\operatorname{adj} 2 A=2^2 \operatorname{adj} A \quad \because \operatorname{adj} kA = k ^{ n -1}(\operatorname{adj} A)\) \(=4 \operatorname{adj} A\) Now \(A ^2(\operatorname{adj} 2 A)=4 A(\operatorname{adj} A )\) \(=4 A| A | I _3\) \(=24 A\) Now…
