Chapter 4: Q13E (page 191)

If A is a \({\bf{7}} \times {\bf{5}}\) matrix, what is the largest possible rank of A? If Ais a \({\bf{5}} \times {\bf{7}}\) matrix, what is the largest possible rank of A? Explain your answer.

Short Answer

Expert verified

If A is a \(7 \times 5\) matrix, then the largest possible rank of A is 5.

If Ais a \(5 \times 7\) matrix, then the largest possible rank of A is 5.

Step by step solution

01

Use the rank theorem

Note that the number of pivotsin A gives the dimension of its column space. And by the rank theorem, \(\dim {\rm{Col}}\,A = \dim {\rm{Row}}\,A = {\rm{rank}}\,A\).

02

Compute the rank for \({\bf{7}} \times {\bf{5}}\) matrix

If A is a \(7 \times 5\) matrix, then the number of pivots cannot exceed the number of columns. Here, the number of columns is minimum. Hence, the largest possible rank of A is 5.

03

Compute the rank for \({\bf{5}} \times {\bf{7}}\) matrix

If A is a \(5 \times 7\) matrix, then the number of pivots cannot exceed the number of rows. Here, the number of rows is minimum. Hence, the largest possible rank of A is 5.

Consider the following two systems of equations:

\(\begin{array}{c}5{x_1} + {x_2} - 3{x_3} = 0\\ - 9{x_1} + 2{x_2} + 5{x_3} = 1\\4{x_1} + {x_2} - 6{x_3} = 9\end{array}\) \(\begin{array}{c}5{x_1} + {x_2} - 3{x_3} = 0\\ - 9{x_1} + 2{x_2} + 5{x_3} = 5\\4{x_1} + {x_2} - 6{x_3} = 45\end{array}\)

It can be shown that the first system of a solution. Use this fact and the theory from this section to explain why the second system must also have a solution. (Make no row operations.)

Prove theorem 3 as follows: Given an \(m \times n\) matrix A, an element in \({\mathop{\rm Col}\nolimits} A\) has the form \(Ax\) for some x in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\). Let \(Ax\) and \(A{\mathop{\rm w}\nolimits} \) represent any two vectors in \({\mathop{\rm Col}\nolimits} A\).

  1. Explain why the zero vector is in \({\mathop{\rm Col}\nolimits} A\).
  2. Show that the vector \(A{\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} + A{\mathop{\rm w}\nolimits} \) is in \({\mathop{\rm Col}\nolimits} A\).
  3. Given a scalar \(c\), show that \(c\left( {A{\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} } \right)\) is in \({\mathop{\rm Col}\nolimits} A\).

[M] Let \(A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}7&{ - 9}&{ - 4}&5&3&{ - 3}&{ - 7}\\{ - 4}&6&7&{ - 2}&{ - 6}&{ - 5}&5\\5&{ - 7}&{ - 6}&5&{ - 6}&2&8\\{ - 3}&5&8&{ - 1}&{ - 7}&{ - 4}&8\\6&{ - 8}&{ - 5}&4&4&9&3\end{array}} \right]\).

  1. Construct matrices \(C\) and \(N\) whose columns are bases for \({\mathop{\rm Col}\nolimits} A\) and \({\mathop{\rm Nul}\nolimits} A\), respectively, and construct a matrix \(R\) whose rows form a basis for Row\(A\).
  2. Construct a matrix \(M\) whose columns form a basis for \({\mathop{\rm Nul}\nolimits} {A^T}\), form the matrices \(S = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{R^T}}&N\end{array}} \right]\) and \(T = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}C&M\end{array}} \right]\), and explain why \(S\) and \(T\) should be square. Verify that both \(S\) and \(T\) are invertible.
