If needed, use the back or the next empty page for work. If you need additional paper, write your name on it. • Do not detach pages from this exam packet or un-staple the packet. • Please write neatly. Answers which are illegible for the grader can not be given credit. • No notes, books, calculators, computers, or other electronic aids can be allowed. • You have 90 minutes time to complete your work.Problem 1) TF questions (20 points) No justifications needed1)T FIf A is invertible, then A3is invertible.2)T FIf A2is invertible, then A is invertible.3)T FThere is a matrix A and a vector~b such that A~x =~b has no solution andker(A) = {~0}.4)T FIf A is a 3 × 3 matrix which is a rotation around a line inR3then thecolumns of A form a basis ofR3.5)T FThe r ank of a diagonal matrix A equals the number of non-zero entries inA.6)T FRow reduction produces a diagonal matrix which has leading 1 at the placeswhere the original entries were not zero.7)T FA ="4/13 6/137/13 9/13#is a projection onto the line spanned by"23#.8)T FThe composition of a shear and a rotation in the plane is invertible.9)T FThe linear space of cubic polynomials ax3+ bx2+ cx + d has dimension 3.10)T FIf A is a 5 × 5 matrix such that A2= I5, (where I5is the identity matrix),then A is invertible.11)T FIf A is a 2 × 2 matrix such that A3= I2, then A is the identity matrix In.12)T FThere exists an invertible 3 × 3 matrix A such that 7 of its entries are 0.13)T FIt can happen that in rref(A) there are rows for which all entr ies arenonzero.14)T FIt is p ossible that rref(A) has columns for which all entries are nonzero.15)T FThe ra nk of a 3 × 4 matrix may be 4.16)T FThe ra nk of a 4 × 3 matrix may be 4.17)T FThere is an invertible 2 × 2 matrix S such that S−1"0 10 0#S ="1 00 0#18)T FThe number of leading 1 entries in rref(A) is the dimension of the image ofA.19)T FIf A and B are invertible n × n matrices, then so is A − B.20)T FThere exists a linear transformation T fromR3toR3for which ker(T ) =im(T ).Total2Problem 2) (10 points)Which of the following matrices are in reduced row-echelon form?
