Let's think about what that means. Ax, if I write a like that and if I write x like this, let me write it a little bit better, let me write x like this, x1, x2, all the way to xn. What is Ax? Well, Ax could be rewritten as x1, and we've seen this before, Ax is equal to x1 times v1 plus x2 times v2 all the way to plus x...

Well, Ax could be rewritten as x1, and we've seen this before, Ax is equal to x1 times v1 plus x2 times v2 all the way to plus xn times vn. We've seen this multiple times. This comes out of our definition of matrix vector products. Now, if Ax is equal to this, and I'm essentially saying that I can pick any vector x in ...

Now, if Ax is equal to this, and I'm essentially saying that I can pick any vector x in Rn, I'm saying that I can pick all possible values of the entries here, all possible real values and all possible combinations of them. So what is this equal to? What is the set of all possible? So I could rewrite this statement her...

So I could rewrite this statement here as the set of all possible x1, v1, plus x2, v2, all the way to xn, vn, where x1, x2, all the way to xn are a member of the real numbers. That's all I'm saying here. This statement is the equivalent of this. When I say that the vector x can be any member of Rn, I'm saying that its ...

When I say that the vector x can be any member of Rn, I'm saying that its components can be any members of the real numbers. So if I just take the set of all of the, essentially, the combinations of these column vectors where their real numbers, where their coefficients are members of the real numbers, what am I doing?...
Column space of a matrix Vectors and spaces Linear Algebra Khan Academy.mp3
So this is equal to the span of the v1, v2, all the way to vn, which is the same exact same thing as the column space of A. So the column space of A, you could say, hey, what are all of the possible vectors, or the set of all vectors I can create by taking linear combinations of these guys, or the span of these guys? O...

So let's think about it this way. Let's say that I were to tell you that I need to solve the equation Ax is equal to, let me say, well, the convention is to write a b there, but let me put a special b there. Let me put b1. Let's say that I need to solve this equation Ax is equal to b1. And then I were to tell you, let'...

Let's say that I need to solve this equation Ax is equal to b1. And then I were to tell you, let's say that I were to figure out the column space of A, and I say b1 is not a member of the column space of A. Now what does that tell me? That tells me that this right here can never take on the value b1, right? Because all...
Column space of a matrix Vectors and spaces Linear Algebra Khan Academy.mp3
That tells me that this right here can never take on the value b1, right? Because all of the values that this can take on is the column space of A. So if b1 is not in this, it means that this cannot take on the value of b1. So this would imply that this equation we're trying to set up, Ax is equal to b1, has no solutio...

So this would imply that this equation we're trying to set up, Ax is equal to b1, has no solution. If it had a solution, if it had some solution, so let's say that Ax equals b2. So let's say Ax equals b2 has at least one solution. Has at least one solution. What does this mean? Well, that means that this, for a particu...

Has at least one solution. What does this mean? Well, that means that this, for a particular x, or maybe for many different x's, you can definitely achieve this value. For there are some x's that when you multiply it by a, you definitely are able to get this value. So this implies that b2 is definitely a member of the ...

For there are some x's that when you multiply it by a, you definitely are able to get this value. So this implies that b2 is definitely a member of the column space of A. Some of this stuff, on some level, it's almost obvious. This comes out of the definition of the column space, the column space is all of the linear c...

So let's actually use that method in this video right here. So I'm going to use the same matrix that we started off with in the last video. And it seems like a fairly good matrix. We know that its reduced row echelon form is the identity matrix, so we know it's invertible. So let's find its inverse. So the technique is...

We know that its reduced row echelon form is the identity matrix, so we know it's invertible. So let's find its inverse. So the technique is pretty straightforward. You literally just apply the same transformations you would apply to this guy to get you to the identity matrix. You would apply those same transformations...

You literally just apply the same transformations you would apply to this guy to get you to the identity matrix. You would apply those same transformations to the identity matrix. And that's because the collection of those transformations, if you represent them as matrices, are really just the inverse of this guy. So l...

So let's just do it. So I'll create an augmented matrix here. Maybe I'll do it right here. Let me make it a little bit neater. So first I'll write a. So it's 1, minus 1, 1. And then minus 1, 2, 1.

Let me make it a little bit neater. So first I'll write a. So it's 1, minus 1, 1. And then minus 1, 2, 1. Minus 1, 3, 4. And then I will augment it with the identity matrix. With 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1.

And then minus 1, 2, 1. Minus 1, 3, 4. And then I will augment it with the identity matrix. With 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1. Now, if I want to get a into reduced row echelon form, maybe I'll replace the second row. So I'll keep the first row the same for now. So let me just draw it like this.

With 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1. Now, if I want to get a into reduced row echelon form, maybe I'll replace the second row. So I'll keep the first row the same for now. So let me just draw it like this. Let me keep my first row the same. The entire first row. 1, minus 1, minus 1.

So let me just draw it like this. Let me keep my first row the same. The entire first row. 1, minus 1, minus 1. It's going to be augmented with 1, 0, 0. Keep the whole first row the same. Let's replace the second row with the second row plus the first row.

1, minus 1, minus 1. It's going to be augmented with 1, 0, 0. Keep the whole first row the same. Let's replace the second row with the second row plus the first row. So minus 1 plus 1 is 0. 2 plus minus 1 is 1. 3 plus minus 1 is 2.
