Question
In Exercises 17 and 18, mark each statement True or False. Justify each answer. Here A is an \(m \times n\) matrix.
a. If \(\mathcal{B}\) is a basis for a subspace H, then each vector in H can be written in only one way as a linear combination of the vectors in \(\mathcal{B}\).
b. If \(\mathcal{B}=\left\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \ldots, \mathbf{v}_{p}\right\}\) is a basis for a subspace H of \(\mathbb{R}^{n}\), then the correspondence \(\mathbf{x} \mapsto[\mathbf{x}]_{\mathcal{B}}\) makes H look and act the same as \(\mathbb{R}^{p}\).
c. The dimension of Nul A is the number of variables in the equation Ax = 0.
d. The dimension of the column space of A is rank A.
e. If H is a p-dimensional subspace of \(\mathbb{R}^{n}\), then a linearly independent set of p vectors in H is a basis for H.
