1. The problem asks to find the determinant of matrix $$A = \begin{pmatrix}0 & -2 \\ 6 & 30\end{pmatrix}$$.
2. The formula for the determinant of a 2x2 matrix $$\begin{pmatrix}a & b \\ c & d\end{pmatrix}$$ is:
$$\det(A) = ad - bc$$
3. Applying the formula to matrix $$A$$:
$$\det(A) = (0)(30) - (6)(-2)$$
4. Calculate the products:
$$0 - (-12) = 0 + 12 = 12$$
5. Therefore, the determinant of matrix $$A$$ is $$12$$.
6. The correct answer is option C: 12.
