Solution

The correct option is B $16$
$¯ ¯ ¯ a + ¯ ¯ b = 5^i - 7^j + 10^k$
$¯ ¯ b + ¯ ¯ c = 8^i - 7^j + 3^k$
$¯ ¯ c + ¯ ¯ ¯ a = 7^i - 6^j + 3^k$
Volume of parallelopipe = $[¯ ¯ ¯ a + ¯ ¯ b ¯ ¯ b + ¯ ¯ c ¯ ¯ c + ¯ ¯ ¯ a]$
$\Rightarrow ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ \begin{matrix} 5 & - 7 & 10 8 & - 7 & 3 7 & - 6 & 3 \end{matrix} ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣$
$\Rightarrow 5 [(- 21 + 18)] + 7 (24 - 21) + 10 (- 48 + 49)$
$\Rightarrow - 15 + 21 + 10$
$\Rightarrow 16$ cubic units
