Question

A matrix is said to be of rank r when it contains at least one $$non-zero$$ minor of order r and no such minor of order r $$+$$ $$1$$. The rank of a matrix is denoted by ρ(A).         By means of elementary transformations every $$non-zero$$ matrix of rank r can be reduced to one of the following formsAIr⋮$$0$$………$$0$$ $$0$$     B Ir⋯$$0$$     C  [Ir⋮$$0$$]      D  [Ir]Where Ir is a $$r-rowed$$ unit matrix. These are called the normal forms of the given matrix and the value of r is the rank of the matrix. In order to find the rank of a given matrix, reduce the matrix to its normal form. This process of reducing a matrix of rank r to its normal form is known as ‘The $$sweep-out$$ process’.The rank of the matrix $$A=012112323113$$ isRank of the matrix $$A=1$$−$$12$$−$$3410203140102$$ isThe rank of the matrix $$A=134339129$$−$$1$$−$$3$$−$$4$$−$$3$$ is

The number of $$non-zero$$ rows in this matrix is $$1$$. Therefore, the rank of  A $$=1$$.
