Chapter 2: Q2.9-28E (page 93)
Use Exercise 27 to show that if A and B are basis for a subspace W of \({\mathbb{R}^n}\), then A cannot contain more vectors than B , and, conversely, B cannot contain more vectors than A.
B cannot contain more vectors than A.

Suppose Tand U are linear transformations from \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) to \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) such that \(T\left( {U{\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} } \right) = {\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} \) for all x in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) . Is it true that \(U\left( {T{\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} } \right) = {\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} \) for all x in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\)? Why or why not?
Suppose Ais an \(m \times n\) matrix and there exist \(n \times m\) matrices C and D such that \(CA = {I_n}\) and \(AD = {I_m}\). Prove that \(m = n\) and \(C = D\). (Hint: Think about the product CAD.)
Let \(A = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{2}}&{\bf{5}}\\{ - {\bf{3}}}&{\bf{1}}\end{aligned}} \right)\) and \(B = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{4}}&{ - {\bf{5}}}\\{\bf{3}}&k\end{aligned}} \right)\). What value(s) of \(k\), if any will make \(AB = BA\)?
Generalize the idea of Exercise 21(a) [not 21(b)] by constructing a \(5 \times 5\) matrix \(M = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}A&0\\C&D\end{array}} \right]\) such that \({M^2} = I\). Make C a nonzero \(2 \times 3\) matrix. Show that your construction works.
(M) Read the documentation for your matrix program, and write the commands that will produce the following matrices (without keying in each entry of the matrix).
