Correct answer: A

  1. We are given [a b c][197827737]=[0 0 0].[a\ b\ c]\begin{bmatrix}1&9&7\\8&2&7\\7&3&7\end{bmatrix}=[0\ 0\ 0].[a b c]​187​923​777​​=[0 0 0]. This means [a b c]M=0,[a\ b\ c]M=0,[a b c]M=0, so (a,b,c)(a,b,c)(a,b,c) satisfies the system obtained by equating each component to zero:

a+8b+7c=0...(1)a+8b+7c=0 \quad ...(1)a+8b+7c=0...(1) 9a+2b+3c=0...(2)9a+2b+3c=0 \quad ...(2)9a+2b+3c=0...(2) 7a+7b+7c=0...(3)7a+7b+7c=0 \quad ...(3)7a+7b+7c=0...(3)

Given a=2a=2a=2, substitute into these equations.

  1. From (3): 7(2+b+c)=07(2+b+c)=07(2+b+c)=0 2+b+c=02+b+c=02+b+c=0 b+c=−2....(4)b+c=-2. \quad ...(4)b+c=−2....(4)

From (1): 2+8b+7c=02+8b+7c=02+8b+7c=0 8b+7c=−2....(5)8b+7c=-2. \quad ...(5)8b+7c=−2....(5)

Using (4), b=−2−cb=-2-cb=−2−c. Put this in (5): 8(−2−c)+7c=−28(-2-c)+7c=-28(−2−c)+7c=−2 −16−8c+7c=−2-16-8c+7c=-2−16−8c+7c=−2 −16−c=−2-16-c=-2−16−c=−2 c=−14.c=-14.c=−14. Then b=−2−(−14)=12.b=-2-(-14)=12.b=−2−(−14)=12.

So, a=2,b=12,c=−14.a=2,\quad b=12,\quad c=-14.a=2,b=12,c=−14.

  1. Now evaluate 3ωa+1ωb+3ωc.\frac{3}{\omega^a}+\frac{1}{\omega^b}+\frac{3}{\omega^c}.ωa3​+ωb1​+ωc3​. Since ω\omegaω is a cube root of unity with Im⁡(ω)>0\operatorname{Im}(\omega)>0Im(ω)>0, we have ω3=1,\omega^3=1,ω3=1, and powers reduce modulo 333.

Compute exponents modulo 333: a=2  ⟹  ωa=ω2,a=2 \implies \omega^a=\omega^2,a=2⟹ωa=ω2, b=12≡0(mod3)  ⟹  ω12=1,b=12 \equiv 0 \pmod 3 \implies \omega^{12}=1,b=12≡0(mod3)⟹ω12=1, c=−14≡1(mod3)  ⟹  ω−14=ω.c=-14 \equiv 1 \pmod 3 \implies \omega^{-14}=\omega.c=−14≡1(mod3)⟹ω−14=ω. Hence 3ω2+11+3ω−14=3ω2+1+3ω.\frac{3}{\omega^2}+\frac{1}{1}+\frac{3}{\omega^{-14}}=\frac{3}{\omega^2}+1+\frac{3}{\omega}.ω23​+11​+ω−143​=ω23​+1+ω3​.

Using 1ω=ω2,1ω2=ω,\frac{1}{\omega}=\omega^2, \qquad \frac{1}{\omega^2}=\omega,ω1​=ω2,ω21​=ω, this becomes 3ω+1+3ω2.3\omega+1+3\omega^2.3ω+1+3ω2.

  1. Use the identity for cube roots of unity: 1+ω+ω2=0  ⟹  ω+ω2=−1.1+\omega+\omega^2=0 \implies \omega+\omega^2=-1.1+ω+ω2=0⟹ω+ω2=−1. Therefore, 3ω+1+3ω2=1+3(ω+ω2)=1+3(−1)=−2.3\omega+1+3\omega^2=1+3(\omega+\omega^2)=1+3(-1)=-2.3ω+1+3ω2=1+3(ω+ω2)=1+3(−1)=−2.

  2. Thus the required value is −2.\boxed{-2}.−2​. So the correct option is A.
