find the rank of the matrix if, is my answer right?












0














if $$ B =
pmatrix{-3&-2&1 \ 1&0&1\0&-4&8\0&1&-2 \3&0&3}
$$



if $C(B)$=$N(A)$ then find the rank of matrix A ?



the answer will be as follow



$C(B)=2$



Rank of $B=2$



$N(B)=3-2=1$



$N(A)=2$



the rank $=$ number of columns $-$ the nullity



then
rank of A $=$ number of columns $-$ 2



the problem is that iam not sure about the number of A columns is it 3?



if it is then the rank of $A = 1$



if it not then any help on that and thank you in advance

  • In that case, I would refrain from referring to $C(B)$ as a number, as it is a space of vectors. You could talk about $operatorname{dim} C(B)$ as a number, but this is precisely $operatorname{rank} B$.

  • These are different concepts! If $C(B)$ is the set of all linear combinations of columns of $B$, then it is a space of vectors. If it is the number of linearly independent columns of $B$, then it is a number (the dimension of this subspace). The latter number is the definition of "rank". There's nothing wrong with using alternative names for the rank, but it's confusing when you refer both to $C(B)$ and $operatorname{rank} B$ in the same argument!

The number of columns of $A$ must be $5$. You can tell this from the nullspace of $A$, which is the columnspace of $B$. Note that the columnspace of $B$ consists of vectors with $5$ components, and $A$ must multiply to each of these vectors (to produce the $0$ vector). In order for this multiplication to be well-defined, the number of columns of $A$ must be $5$.



Hence,



$$5 = operatorname{rank} A + operatorname{nullity} A = operatorname{rank} A + 2 implies operatorname{rank} A = 3.$$
