Find the Nullity [[100],[3]]
Problem
Solution
Identify the dimensions of the given matrix
A The matrixA=[[100],[3]] is a2×1 matrix, meaning it hasn=1 column.Determine the rank of the matrix. Since the matrix contains at least one non-zero entry, its columns are linearly independent. Thus,
rank(A)=1 Apply the Rank-Nullity Theorem, which states that for any matrix with
n columns,rank(A)+nullity(A)=n Substitute the known values into the theorem:
1+nullity(A)=1 Solve for the nullity:
nullity(A)=1−1=0
