The image contains the mathematical notation for matrix $A$ and the matrix itself:

$A = \begin{bmatrix} -5 & 3 & 8 \\ 0 & 7 & 2 \\ -8 & 9 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$

Would you like to perform any specific operations on this matrix, such as finding the determinant, calculating the inverse, performing row reductions, or something else? Let me know your requirements.

Here are five related questions that expand upon the matrix concept:

1. What is the determinant of matrix $A$?
2. How do you find the inverse of matrix $A$, and when is it possible?
3. What are the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrix $A$?
4. How can you use matrix $A$ to solve a system of linear equations?
5. What is the rank of matrix $A$, and what does it signify?

Tip: When finding the determinant of a 3x3 matrix, use the rule of Sarrus or cofactor expansion to simplify the process.
