Question
Mark the following either true or false. Justification is required.

(a) The dimensions of \(\text{Col } A\) and \(\text{Nul } A\) add up to the number of rows of \(A\).

(b) If \(\mathcal{B}\) is a basis of subspace \(H\), then each vector in \(H\) can be written in one and only one way as a linear combination of the vectors in \(\mathcal{B}\).

(c) The dimension of \(\text{Nul } A\) is the number of free variables in the equation \(Ax = 0\).

Step 1: Formula used

To answer the questions we can use following formula

(a) For a matrix A with order m × n, 

Rank (A) + Nullity (A) = Number of columns in A

(b) Elements of a basis vectors are linearly independent.

(c) Using rank nullity theorem,

number of columns of A - Rank of A = nullity of A
