    B Finding Bases for Row and Column Spaces

    I'm doing problems on finding row and column spaces. My textbook tells me to find the echelon form of the matrix, and then to identify the bases. My question is, can I reduce the matrix to reduced echelon form to get the bases? I have the same question about bases for the solution space.

    I Are the columns space and row space same for idempotent matrix?

    Suppose, ##A## is an idempotent matrix, i.e, ##A^2=A##. For idempotent matrix, the eigenvalues are ##1## and ##0##. Here, the eigenspace corresponding to eigenvalue ##1## is the column space, and the eigenspace corresponding to eigenvalue ##0## is the null space. But eigenspaces for distinct...

    Question about row space basis and Column space basis

    Say a subspace S of R^3 is spanned by a basis = <(-1,2,5),(3,0,3),(5,1,8)> By putting these vectors into a matrix and reducing it to rref, a basis for the row space can be found as <(1,-2,-5),(0,1,3)>. Furthermore, the book goes on to say that this basis spans the subspace S. Cool, not...

    Linear Algebra: Basis vs basis of row space vs basis of column space

    In my linear algebra class we previously studied how to find a basis and I had no issues with that. Now we are studying the basis of a row space and basis of a column space and I'm struggling to understand the methods being used in the textbook. The textbook uses different methods to find these...

    Solutions to Ax=b lie in row space?

    Hi, My textbooks say that when a solution, x, is found to Ax=b it has a particular solution, x_0, such that A*x_0=b which is then combined with other solutions from the null space, n_i, such that A*n_i=0. However, when playing about with this I seem to have come across a problem. for...

    Finding Elements in Row Space of a Matrix: Solving for Belonging and Dependency

    In my homework problem, I am supposed to find out whether an element belongs to the rowspace of a matrix. So, what I did is to determine the (row)basis of the matrix, dimension of it being one row less of the rows of the original matrix. So, instead of the linearly-dependent row I put the...
