Exercise · ZW-RANK-NULLITY-THEOREM-002 · ★☆☆ Basic
Choose one option.
The image is all of \(\mathbb{R}^3\), of dimension \(3\), so \(\dim\ker T=4-3=1\).
For a linear transformation \(T\) with finite-dimensional domain \(V\), the dimension of the kernel plus that of the image equals the dimension of \(V\).
