Correct answer
C25

Step-by-step explanation

Now $\begin{aligned} & \alpha-5 \lambda=\mathrm{k}+1 \Rightarrow \alpha=5 \lambda+\mathrm{k}+1 \\ & \beta-3 \lambda=-\mathrm{k}+2 \Rightarrow \beta=3 \lambda-\mathrm{k}+2 \\ & \gamma+\lambda=2 \mathrm{k}-1 \Rightarrow \gamma=-\lambda+2 \mathrm{k}+1 \\ & |5 \alpha-11 \beta-8 \gamma|=|-25| \\ & =25 \end{aligned}$
