Solution

The correct option is A 3
Order of matrix is (4×4). So, Row Echelon form should be preferred over Determinant method.

A=⎢ ⎢ ⎢1213412131121201⎥ ⎥ ⎥R2R24R1R3R33R1R4R4R1

A=⎢ ⎢ ⎢12130761107470012⎥ ⎥ ⎥R3R3R2

A=⎢ ⎢ ⎢12130761100240012⎥ ⎥ ⎥R42R4+R3

A=⎢ ⎢ ⎢12130761100240000⎥ ⎥ ⎥(Echelonform)

ρ(A) = 3 (No. of non zero rows in Echelon form)
