Get started for freeIf Ais an \(n \times n\) matrix and the transformation \({\bf{x}}| \to A{\bf{x}}\) is one-to-one, what else can you say about this transformation? Justify your answer.
Suppose the third column of Bis the sum of the first two columns. What can you say about the third column of AB? Why?
Prove Theorem 2(d). (Hint: The \(\left( {i,j} \right)\)- entry in \(\left( {rA} \right)B\) is \(\left( {r{a_{i1}}} \right){b_{1j}} + ... + \left( {r{a_{in}}} \right){b_{nj}}\).)
Let \(S = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}0&1&0&0&0\\0&0&1&0&0\\0&0&0&1&0\\0&0&0&0&1\\0&0&0&0&0\end{aligned}} \right)\). Compute \({S^k}\) for \(k = {\bf{2}},...,{\bf{6}}\).
Suppose \(AD = {I_m}\) (the \(m \times m\) identity matrix). Show that for any b in \({\mathbb{R}^m}\), the equation \(A{\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} = {\mathop{\rm b}\nolimits} \) has a solution. (Hint: Think about the equation \(AD{\mathop{\rm b}\nolimits} = {\mathop{\rm b}\nolimits} \).) Explain why Acannot have more rows than columns.
