Determine whether the following statements are true or false and provide a justification for your response. If the coefficient matrix of a system of linear equations has a pivot in the rightmost column, then the system is inconsistent. If a system of equations has two equations and four unknowns, then it must be consistent. If a system of equations having four equations and three unknowns is consistent, then the solution is unique. Suppose that a linear system has four equations...

Consider a system of linear equations with augmented matrix A and coefficient matrix C. In each case either prove the statement or give an example showing that it is false. • If there is more than one solution, A has a row of zeros. • If A has a row of zeros, there is more than one solution. • If there is no solution, the row-echelon form of C has a row of zeros. • If the row-echelon form of...

For each statement below, either show that the statement is true or give an example showing that it is false. Assume throughout that A and B are square matrices, unless otherwise specified. (a) If AB = 0 and A ̸= 0, then B = 0. (b) If x is a vector of unknowns, b is a constant column vector, and Ax = b has no solution, then Ax = 0 has no solution. (c) If x is a vector of...

The system of equations may have a unique solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solution. Use matrices to find the general solution of the system, if a solution exists. (If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION. If there are infinitely many solutions, express your answers in terms of z as in Example 3.) 3x ? 2y + 5z = 11 2x ? 3y + 4z = 8
