Step 1
We need to determine if each vector is in the image of \( A \), denoted as \( \text{im}(A) \). If a vector \( b \) is in \( \text{im}(A) \), there exists a vector \( x \) such that \( Ax = b \). Matrix \( A \) is given by: \[ A = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 2 & -4 \\ -1 Show more…

Determine if the vector b is in the span of the columns of the matrix A. A = [[8, 2], [1, 1]], b = [2, 1] The vector b is in the span of the columns of the matrix A. The vector b is not in the span of the columns of the matrix A.

Determine whether $b$ is in the column space of $A$. If it is, write $b$ as a linear combination of the column vectors of $A$. $$ A=\left[\begin{array}{rrr} 5 & 4 & 4 \\ -3 & 1 & -2 \\ 1 & 0 & 8 \end{array}\right], \quad \mathbf{b}=\left[\begin{array}{r} -9 \\ 11 \\ -25 \end{array}\right] $$
