Exercises 27 and 28 prove special cases of the facts about elementary matrices stated in the box following Example 5. Here A is a 3 × 3 matrix and I = I3. (A general proof would require slightly more notation.)
27. a. Use equation (1) from Section 2.1 to show that rowi(A) = rowi(I)·A, for i = 1,2,3.
b. Show that if rows 1 and 2 of A are interchanged, then the result may be written as EA, where E is an elementary matrix formed by interchanging rows 1 and 2 of I.
c. Show that if row 3 of A is multiplied by 5, then the result may be written as EA, where E is formed by multiplying row 3 of I by 5.

A=0110arrow_forwardTake this test to review the material in Chapters 4 and 5. After you are finished, check your work against the answers in the back of the book. Determine whether the columns of matrix A span R4. A=[1210130200111001]arrow_forward
- Use an example chosen from 22 matrices to show that for nn matrices A and B,ABBA but AB=BA.arrow_forwardTake this test to review the material in Chapters 4 and 5. After you are finished, check your work against the answers in the back of the book. Write the third column of the matrix as a linear combination of the first two columns if possible.

- In general, it is difficult to show that two matrices are similar. However, if two similar matrices are diagonalizable, the task becomes easier. In Exercises 38-41, show that A and B are similar by showing that they are similar to the same diagonal matrix. Then find an invertible matrix P such that .arrow_forwardConsider the matrix A=[2314]. Show that any of the three types of elementary row operations can be used to create a leading 1 at the top of the first column.
