    any other doubts.

    eduncle-logo-app

    so we want to consider B as constant

    eduncle-logo-app

    to have solution unique or infinite the first condition is that rank(A)= rank(A:B)

  • Rudhreswaran g

    but as the information given I have related the problem to that but rank is not equal to columns but how it is unique soluntion

    rank is 2 here and column is also 2

    eduncle-logo-app

    it is three know?

    eduncle-logo-app

    okk you took it wrong columns before= sign

    eduncle-logo-app

    in [A:B] column of A only

    eduncle-logo-app

    feel free to ask if you have any doubts

    eduncle-logo-app

    only we want to take columns of A only no need to take A:B

    eduncle-logo-app

    yes

    eduncle-logo-app

    ok

    eduncle-logo-app

    so B is consider as constant

    eduncle-logo-app

    no the common think which can be said that if rank (A) = rank(A:B) then we will get solution it may be unique or infinite

    eduncle-logo-app

    that's ok but in book they have given that explanation so that is confusing

    eduncle-logo-app

    it is explained in different way when we don't have a square matrix

    eduncle-logo-app

    ok

    eduncle-logo-app

    any other doubts

    eduncle-logo-app

    no

    eduncle-logo-app

    we want to take A only as columns

    eduncle-logo-app

    check out this

    eduncle-logo-app

    we will check rank of matrix A and rank of matrix (A:B) , if the rank are equal we will say that system is consistent i.e. system have solution

    eduncle-logo-app

    now it depend on (n-r) if the solution are unique or infinite and that different conditions is given in your uploaded text

    eduncle-logo-app

    read these last two comments together

    eduncle-logo-app

    ok thank you

    m is row if rank is r then their are r linearly independent rows so we can make (m-r) rows as zero rows by using r rows because (m-r) rows are linearly dependent. So by this we can eliminate (m-r) equations because these are zero rows .
