Solution

The correct option is D 9
∣ ∣ ∣(1+α)2(1+2α)2(1+3α)2(2+α)2(2+2α)2(2+3α)2(3+α)2(3+2α)2(3+3α2∣ ∣ ∣=648α
R2R2R1 and R3R3R2 gives
∣ ∣ ∣(1+α)2(1+2α)2(1+3α)2(3+2α)(3+4α)(3+6α)(5+2α)(5+4α)(5+6α)∣ ∣ ∣=648α
R3R3R2 gives
∣ ∣ ∣(1+α)2(1+2α)2(1+3α)23+2α3+4α3+6α222∣ ∣ ∣=648α
C2C2C1 and C3C3C2 gives
∣ ∣ ∣(1+α)2α(2+3α)α(2+5α)(3+2α)2α2α(2)00∣ ∣ ∣=648α
2(2α2)[(2+3α)(2+5α)]=648α
8α3=648α
α2=81 or α=0
α=0 or ±9
