Let A be an nxn matrix. Determine whether the statement below is true or false. Justify the answer. If det A is zero, then two rows or two columns are the same, or a row or a column is zero. Choose the correct answer below. O A. The statement is false. The determinant depends on the columns of A. It is possible for two rows to be the same and for the determinant to be nonzero О в. The statement is false, If A = 2 6 then det A = 0 and the rows and columns are all distinct and not full of zeros. 1. 3 O c. The statement is true. If det A is zero, then the columns of A are linearly independent. If one column is zero, or two columns are the same, then the columns are linearly dependent. OD. 2 3 The statement is true.

Let A be an n×n matrix. Determine whether the statement below is true or false. Justify the answer.
If det A is zero, then two rows or two columns are the same, or a row or a column is zero.

Transcribed Image Text:Let A be an nxn matrix. Determine whether the statement below is true or false. Justify the answer.
If det A is zero, then two rows or two columns are the same, or a row or a column is zero.
Choose the correct answer below.
O A. The statement is false. The determinant depends on the columns of A. It is possible for two rows to be the same and for the determinant to be
nonzero
О в.
The statement is false, If A =
2 6
then det A = 0 and the rows and columns are all distinct and not full of zeros.
