Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “The set of all linear combinations of $v1,…,vp$ is a vector space” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is true.

Explanation of Solution

Here, the given vectors are $v1,…,vp$ .

The span { $v1,…,vp$ } always form a vector subspace of the vector space.

Thus, the linear combinations of $v1,…,vp$ are also a vector space.

Hence, the statement is true.

b.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “If ${v1,…,vp−1}$ spans V, then S spans V” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is true.

Explanation of Solution

The set S is $S={v1,…,vp}$ .

It is given that the set ${v1,…,vp−1}$ spans V. That is, span ${v1,…,vp−1}$ = $V$ .

That is, every element in the vector space $V$ can be expressed by using the vectors ${v1,…,vp−1}$ .

Here, the set $S={v1,…,vp}$ , the set contain more than one element than the set ${v1,…,vp−1}$ .

The smaller set ${v1,…,vp−1}$ spans V which implies the bigger set $S={v1,…,vp}$ also spans V.

If the vector space V is spanned by ${v1,…,vp−1}$ , then its linear combinations also span V.

Hence, the statement is true.

c.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “If ${v1,…,vp−1}$ is linearly independent, then so is S” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

If ${v1,…,vp−1}$ is a set of linearly independent vectors, then it does not imply that the set ${v1,…,vp−1,vp}$ is also linearly independent as $vp$ may be expressed as a linear combination of ${v1,…,vp−1}$ .

Therefore, it does not imply that S is linearly independent.

Hence, the statement is false.

d.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “If S is linearly independent then S is a basis for V” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

A set of vectors ${v1,…,vp}$ is a basis for a vector space V if the following two conditions are satisfied:

1. The set of vectors ${v1,…,vp}$ is a linearly independent set.

2. The set ${v1,…,vp}$ spans the vector space V.

It can be seen that the second condition is not satisfied.

Hence, the statement is false.

e.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “If $Span S=V$ , then some subset of S is a basis for V” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is true.

It is given that the vector space V is spanned by S, which is nonzero set.

Suppose the set S is linearly independent then, the set S form a basis for V.

Suppose the set S is linearly dependent then, some subset of S linearly independent and which spans V.

That is, some subset of S form a basis for V.

Hence, the statement is true.

f.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “If $dimV=p$ and $Span S=V$ , then S cannot be linearly dependent.” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is true.

Here, $Span S=V$ , that is the set contain $p$ elements span the $p$ dimensional space.

Which implies the $p$ elements is linearly independent.

Hence, the statement is false.

g.

To find: Whether the statement “A plane in $ℝ3$ is a two-dimensional subspace” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

Every plane in $ℝ3$ to be a two dimensional subspace is false.

Sometimes plane in $ℝ3$ does not form a vector space. Only the plane passing through origin form a subspace of $ℝ3$ .

Hence, the statement is false.

h.

Expert Solution

Hence, the statement is true.

j.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “Row operations on a matrix can change the null space” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

Hence, the statement is false.

k.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “The rank of a matrix equals the number of nonzero rows” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

The rank of a matrix A is the dimension of the column space of A.

The dimension of column space of A is the number of pivot columns in A.

Therefore, the rank of matrix equals the number of pivot columns.

Consider the matrix $[1111]$ .

The above matrix has 2 rows but rank of the matrix is 1.

Hence, the statement is false.

l.

Expert Solution

To determine

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

If U has k nonzero rows then, $rank A=k$ .

According to the Rank Theorem, the rank of an $m×n$ matrix A is same as the dimension of the column space of A and is equal to the number of pivot positions in A such that,

$rank A+dimNul A=ndimNul A=n−rank A=n−k$

Hence, the statement is false.

m.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “If B is obtained from a matrix A by several elementary row operations, then $rank A=rank B$ ” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is true.

Elementary row operations does not change the number of pivot columns and hence, does not change the rank of a matrix.

Therefore, the rank of matrix B will be same as the rank of matrix A.

Hence, the statement is true.

n.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “The nonzero rows of a matrix A form a basis for Row A” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

To form a basis for A, the rows have to span A and should also be linearly independent.

The nonzero rows of a matrix A span Row A but that does not guarantee that they are linearly independent.

Hence, the statement is false.

o.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “If matrices A and B have the same reduced echelon form, then $Row A=Row B$ ” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is true.

Explanation of Solution

The nonzero rows of the echelon form of a matrix, form a basis for the row space of that matrix.

If the echelon form for two matrices is same, then the basis for the row spaces is also same.

Since, row spaces are vector spaces and if two vector spaces have same basis, then the vector spaces are same.

Hence, the statement is true.

p.

Explanation of Solution

If H is a zero, 1, 2, or 3 dimensional subspace of $ℝ3$ , there will always be a corresponding $3×3$ matrix A formed by the basis of H.

The basis of H will then be in the column space of A.

Therefore, $H=Col A$ .

Hence, the statement is true.

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “If A is $m×n$ and $rank A=m$ , then the linear transformation $x↦Ax$ is one-to-one” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

Here the matrix A is linear transformation from $Rm$ to $Rn$ .

The transformation $x↦Ax$ is one-to-one if and only if null space of $A$ is zero.

Here, rank of the matrix is A thus, by the rank nullity theorem null space of $A$ contain $n−m$ elements.

Hence, the statement is false.

To find: Whether the statement “The set of all linear combinations of $v1,…,vp$ is a vector space” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is true.

Explanation of Solution

Here, the given vectors are $v1,…,vp$ .

The span { $v1,…,vp$ } always form a vector subspace of the vector space.

Thus, the linear combinations of $v1,…,vp$ are also a vector space.

Hence, the statement is true.

b.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “If ${v1,…,vp−1}$ spans V, then S spans V” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is true.

Explanation of Solution

The set S is $S={v1,…,vp}$ .

It is given that the set ${v1,…,vp−1}$ spans V. That is, span ${v1,…,vp−1}$ = $V$ .

That is, every element in the vector space $V$ can be expressed by using the vectors ${v1,…,vp−1}$ .

Here, the set $S={v1,…,vp}$ , the set contain more than one element than the set ${v1,…,vp−1}$ .

The smaller set ${v1,…,vp−1}$ spans V which implies the bigger set $S={v1,…,vp}$ also spans V.

Hence, the statement is true.

c.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “The rank of a matrix equals the number of nonzero rows” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

The rank of a matrix A is the dimension of the column space of A.

The dimension of column space of A is the number of pivot columns in A.

Therefore, the rank of matrix equals the number of pivot columns.

Consider the matrix $[1111]$ .

The above matrix has 2 rows but rank of the matrix is 1.

Hence, the statement is false.

l.

Expert Solution

Therefore, the rank of matrix B will be same as the rank of matrix A.

Hence, the statement is true.

n.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “The nonzero rows of a matrix A form a basis for Row A” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

To form a basis for A, the rows have to span A and should also be linearly independent.

The nonzero rows of a matrix A span Row A but that does not guarantee that they are linearly independent.

Hence, the statement is false.

o.

Expert Solution

To determine

To find: Whether the statement “If matrices A and B have the same reduced echelon form, then $Row A=Row B$ ” is true or false.

Answer to Problem 1SE

The statement is true.

Explanation of Solution

The nonzero rows of the echelon form of a matrix, form a basis for the row space of that matrix.

If the echelon form for two matrices is same, then the basis for the row spaces is also same.

Since, row spaces are vector spaces and if two vector spaces have same basis, then the vector spaces are same.

Hence, the statement is true.
