Evaluate \(\begin{vmatrix} 2 & 0 & 5 \\ 4 & 6 & 3 \\ 8 & 9 & 1 \end{vmatrix}\)
- 5y - 2x -18 = 0
- 102
-
-102
- -42
The correct answer is: C
Explanation
\(\begin{vmatrix} 2 & 0 & 5 \\ 4 & 6 & 3 \\ 8 & 9 & 1 \end{vmatrix}\)
= 2(6 - 27) - 0(4 - 24) + 5(36 - 48)
= 2(-21) - 0 + 5(-12)
= -42 + 5(-12)
= -42 - 60
= -102
