  5. The statement is true.

Step by step solution

01

Use the fact of pivot columns

(a)

Note that thepivot columns of matrix A only form a basis for Col A.

Hence, the given statement is false.

02

Use the properties of a basis

(b)

The row operations may change the linear dependence relations among the rows of a matrix.

Hence, the given statement is false.

03

Use the rank theorem

(c)

The sum of the pivot columns and non-pivot columns of A equals the number of columns of A.The number of pivot columns of A is the rank of A.

Bythe rank theorem, the number of non-pivot columns of A is the dimension of the null space of A.

Hence, the given statement is true.

04

Use the fact of the transpose matrix

(d)

The rows of \({A^T}\) are identified with the columns of \({\left( {{A^T}} \right)^T}\), i.e., A. So, you can write \({\rm{Row }}{A^T}\) in place of Col A.

Hence, the given statement is true.

05

Use the 1st statement of theorem 13

(e)

By Theorem 13, if matrices A and B are equivalent, then their row spaces are the same.

Hence, the given statement is true.

A homogeneous system of twelve linear equations in eight unknowns has two fixed solutions that are not multiples of each other, and all other solutions are linear combinations of these two solutions. Can the set of all solutions be described with fewer than twelve homogeneous linear equations? If so, how many? Discuss.

Is it possible for a nonhomogeneous system of seven equations in six unknowns to have a unique solution for some right-hand side of constants? Is it possible for such a system to have a unique solution for every right-hand side? Explain.

Define by \(T\left( {\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} \right) = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} \left( 0 \right)}\\{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} \left( 1 \right)}\end{array}} \right)\). For instance, if \({\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} \left( t \right) = 3 + 5t + 7{t^2}\), then \(T\left( {\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} \right) = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}3\\{15}\end{array}} \right)\).

  1. Show that \(T\) is a linear transformation. (Hint: For arbitrary polynomials p, q in \({{\mathop{\rm P}\nolimits} _2}\), compute \(T\left( {{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} + {\mathop{\rm q}\nolimits} } \right)\) and \(T\left( {c{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} } \right)\).)
  2. Find a polynomial p in \({{\mathop{\rm P}\nolimits} _2}\) that spans the kernel of \(T\), and describe the range of \(T\).

Let \({M_{2 \times 2}}\) be the vector space of all \(2 \times 2\) matrices, and define \(T:{M_{2 \times 2}} \to {M_{2 \times 2}}\) by \(T\left( A \right) = A + {A^T}\), where \(A = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}a&b\\c&d\end{array}} \right)\).

  1. Show that \(T\)is a linear transformation.
  2. Let \(B\) be any element of \({M_{2 \times 2}}\) such that \({B^T} = B\). Find an \(A\) in \({M_{2 \times 2}}\) such that \(T\left( A \right) = B\).
  3. Show that the range of \(T\) is the set of \(B\) in \({M_{2 \times 2}}\) with the property that \({B^T} = B\).
  4. Describe the kernel of \(T\).

(calculus required) Define \(T:C\left( {0,1} \right) \to C\left( {0,1} \right)\) as follows: For f in \(C\left( {0,1} \right)\), let \(T\left( t \right)\) be the antiderivative \({\mathop{\rm F}\nolimits} \) of \({\mathop{\rm f}\nolimits} \) such that \({\mathop{\rm F}\nolimits} \left( 0 \right) = 0\). Show that \(T\) is a linear transformation, and describe the kernel of \(T\). (See the notation in Exercise 20 of Section 4.1.)
