4.2 Vector Spaces
Vector spaces:
Let V be a set on which two operations (vector addition and
scalar multiplication) are defined. If the following axioms are
satisfied for every u, v, and w in V and every scalar (real number)
c and d, then V is called a vector space.
Addition:
(1) u+v is in V
(2) u+v=v+u
(3) u+(v+w)=(u+v)+w
(4) V has a zero vector 0 such that for every u in V, u+0=u
(5) For every u in V, there is a vector in V denoted by u
such that u+(u)=0

Thm 4.17: (Dimension of the solution space)
If A is an mn matrix of rank r, then the dimension of
the solution space of Ax = 0 is n r. That is
n = rank(A) + nullity(A)
Notes:
(1) rank(A): The number of leading variables in the solution of Ax=0.
(The number of nonzero rows in the row-echelon form of A)
(2) nullity (A): The number of free variables in the solution of Ax = 0.
