Which of the following statements are true? There may be
more than one true statement.
A.
Any linear combination of vectors can always be written in the form Ax for a suitable matrix A and vector x. |
B.
Every matrix equation Ax=b corresponds to a vector equation with the same solution set. |
C.
If the echelon form of the augmented matrix [A | b][A | b] has a leading entry in every row, then the equation Ax=b is inconsistent. |
D.
A vector b is a linear combination of the columns of a matrix A if and only if the equation Ax=b has at least one solution. |
E.
If the columns of the matrix A form a linearly independent set, then the equation Ax=b is consistent. |
F.
The solution set of a linear system whose augmented matrix is [a1 a2 a3 | b][a1 a2 a3 | b] is the same as the solution set of Ax=bAx=b, if A=[a1 a2 a3 ]A=[a1 a2 a3 ]. |
