Options
- A2
- B1
- C3
- D0
Correct answer
B. 1
Step-by-step solution
A= [ array lll 1 & 1 & 1 1 & 1 & 1 1 & 1 & 1 array ] , Convert it into row echelon form by applying row transformation as follows aligned & R₂ R₂-R₁, R₃ R₃-R₁ & A [ array lll 1 & 1 & 1 0 & 0 & 0 0 & 0 & 0 array ] aligned Number of non-zero row in echelon form of matrix is 1 . Rank of A=1
