A matrix is singular when the determinant is 0

so we need to check the matrix that has determinant 0

option A :

Determinant = (9*-2) - (8*-3) = -18 + 24 = 6

option B :

Determinant = (7*2) - (12*-8) = 14 + 96 = 110

option C :

Determinant = (-6*4) - (-7*8) = -24+56= 32

option D :

Determinant = (-12*3) - (-4*9) = -36 + 36 =0

Option D is a singular matrix
