Let $A^{-1} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2017 & 2 \\ 1 & 2017 & 4 \\ 1 & 2018 & 8 \end{bmatrix}$. Then,$|2A| - |2A^{-1}|$ is equal to

$A$ determinant is chosen at random from the set of all determinants of order $2$ with elements $0$ or $1$ only. The probability that the value of the chosen determinant is positive is:

Let $A$ be a $2 \times 2$ matrix with real entries. Let $I$ be the $2 \times 2$ identity matrix. Denote by $tr(A)$ the sum of diagonal entries of $A$. Assume that $A^2 = I$.
Statement-$1$: If $A \neq I$ and $A \neq -I$,then $\det(A) = -1$.
Statement-$2$: If $A \neq I$ and $A \neq -I$,then $tr(A) \neq 0$.

If $A, B$ are two non-singular matrices of order $3$ and $|B|=k$,where $k$ is a positive integer,then match the items of List-$I$ with the items of List-$II$.

List-$I$	List-$II$
$A$. $|k^{-1} A^{-1}|$	$I$. $BA^k + A^kB$
$B$. $|\text{Adj}(A^{-1})|$	$II$. $\frac{B\text{Adj}(B)}{|B|}$
$C$. $BAB^{-1} = I \Rightarrow BA^kB^{-1} =$	$III$. $\frac{1}{|B|^3|A|}$
$D$. $\text{Adj}(\text{Adj}(A^{-1})) =$	$IV$. $\frac{1}{|A|}(A^{-1})$
	$V$. $\frac{1}{|A|^2}$

Let $\omega \neq 1$ be a cube root of unity and $S$ be the set of all non-singular matrices of the form $\begin{bmatrix} 1 & a & b \\ \omega & 1 & c \\ \omega^2 & \omega & 1 \end{bmatrix}$ where each of $a$,$b$,and $c$ is either $\omega$ or $\omega^2$. Then,the number of distinct matrices in the set $S$ is

If $a, b, c$ and $d$ are complex numbers,then the determinant $\Delta = \begin{vmatrix} 2 & a+b+c+d & ab+cd \\ a+b+c+d & 2(a+b)(c+d) & ab(c+d)+cd(a+b) \\ ab+cd & ab(c+d)+cd(a+b) & 2abcd \end{vmatrix}$ is
