Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If H = [[1, 2], [2, 4]], what is the rank of H?
  • Step 1: Understand what the rank of a matrix is. The rank is the maximum number of linearly independent rows or columns in the matrix.
  • Step 2: Look at the matrix H = [[1, 2], [2, 4]]. It has 2 rows: [1, 2] and [2, 4].
  • Step 3: Check if the second row [2, 4] is a multiple of the first row [1, 2].
  • Step 4: Notice that [2, 4] = 2 * [1, 2]. This means the second row is dependent on the first row.
  • Step 5: Since the second row does not add any new information (it's a multiple of the first), we only have 1 linearly independent row.
  • Step 6: Therefore, the rank of the matrix H is 1.
