Rank of matrix \left[\begin{array}{cccc}6&1&3&8\\4&2&6&-1\\10&3&9&7\\16&4&12&15\end{array}\right]\\ is 2.

Given:

  • A 4×4 matrix.
  • \left[\begin{array}{cccc}6&1&3&8\\4&2&6&-1\\10&3&9&7\\16&4&12&15\end{array}\right]

To find:

  • Rank of matrix.

Solution:

Concept to be used:Convert the matrix in Row-echlon form and count the number of linearly independent rows.

Step 1:

Apply elementary row operations.

R_1 =  >  \frac{R_1}{6}  \\

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1& \frac{1}{6} & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{4}{3} \\4&2&6&-1\\10&3&9&7\\16&4&12&15\end{array}\right]

Step 2:

R_2 = >  R_2 - 4R_1 \\

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1& \frac{1}{6} & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{4}{3} \\ \\ 0& \frac{4}{3} &4& \frac{ - 19}{3} \\ \\ 10&3&9&7\\16&4&12&15\end{array}\right]

Step 3:

R_3 = >  R_3 - 10R_1 \\

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1& \frac{1}{6} & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{4}{3} \\ \\ 0& \frac{4}{3} &4& \frac{ - 19}{3} \\ \\ 0& \frac{4}{3} &4& -  \frac{19}{3} \\ \\ 16&4&12&15\end{array}\right]

Step 4:

R_4 = >  R_4 - 16R_1 \\

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1& \frac{1}{6} & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{4}{3} \\ \\ 0& \frac{4}{3} &4& \frac{ - 19}{3} \\ \\ 0& \frac{4}{3} &4& -  \frac{19}{3} \\ \\ 0& \frac{4}{3} &4& -  \frac{19}{3} \\ \end{array}\right]

Step 5:

R_4 = >  R_4 - R_2 \\

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1& \frac{1}{6} & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{4}{3} \\ \\ 0& \frac{4}{3} &4& \frac{ - 19}{3} \\ \\ 0& \frac{4}{3} &4& -  \frac{19}{3} \\ \\ 0&0 &0& 0\\ \end{array}\right]

Step 6:

R_3 = >  R_3- R_2 \\

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1& \frac{1}{6} & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{4}{3} \\ \\ 0& \frac{4}{3} &4& \frac{ - 19}{3} \\ \\ 0&0 &0& 0 \\ \\ 0&0 &0& 0\\ \end{array}\right]

There are two linearly independent rows.

Thus,

Rank of matrix is 2.
