Question 18: Suppose A is a \(4 \times 4\) matrix and B is a \(4 \times 2\) matrix, and let \({{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} _0},...,{{\mathop{\rm u}\nolimits} _3}\) represent a sequence of input vectors in \({\mathbb{R}^2}\).
If a\({\bf{6}} \times {\bf{3}}\)matrix A has a rank 3, find dim Nul A, dim Row A, and rank\({A^T}\).
(M) Let \(H = {\mathop{\rm Span}\nolimits} \left\{ {{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1},{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _2}} \right\}\) and \(K = {\mathop{\rm Span}\nolimits} \left\{ {{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _3},{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _4}} \right\}\), where
\({{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}5\\3\\8\end{array}} \right),{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _2} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1\\3\\4\end{array}} \right),{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _3} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}2\\{ - 1}\\5\end{array}} \right),{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _4} = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}0\\{ - 12}\\{ - 28}\end{array}} \right)\)
Then \(H\) and \(K\) are subspaces of \({\mathbb{R}^3}\). In fact, \(H\) and \(K\) are planes in \({\mathbb{R}^3}\) through the origin, and they intersect in a line through 0. Find a nonzero vector w that generates that line. (Hint: w can be written as \({c_1}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1} + {c_2}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _2}\) and also as \({c_3}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _3} + {c_4}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _4}\). To build w, solve the equation \({c_1}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _1} + {c_2}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _2} = {c_3}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _3} + {c_4}{{\mathop{\rm v}\nolimits} _4}\) for the unknown \({c_j}'{\mathop{\rm s}\nolimits} \).)
Let \(A\) be an \(m \times n\) matrix of rank \(r > 0\) and let \(U\) be an echelon form of \(A\). Explain why there exists an invertible matrix \(E\) such that \(A = EU\), and use this factorization to write \(A\) as the sum of \(r\) rank 1 matrices. [Hint: See Theorem 10 in Section 2.4.]
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 \({\mathop{\rm Col}\nolimits} A\).
