The rank of the matrix A is its most important property. There are many equivalent ways of characterizing the rank: rank
rank(A) is the number of pivots in an echelon form of A
rank(A) is the dimension of the column space and row space of A
rank(A) is the size of the largest set of independent columns of A
PART A) Let y be a vector in I3 and A is a 3 × 3 matrix with columns » 24 3u What
are the possible values for rank(A)? Justify your answer.
PART B) Let 0, w be vectors in IR?. Let A be a matrix with 4 columns
0, w, 20 + w, v - w. What are the possible values for rank(A)? Justify your answer.
