The set of all linear combinations of the rows of a matrix
Notes
Span{v₁, …, vₚ} is always a subspace.
Slide 15
Notes
Kernel of T = Nul A; range of T = Col A.
Slide 18
Notes
Spanning Set Theorem: removing a vector that is a combination of the others doesn’t change the span; some subset is a basis.
Slide 20
Notes
Basis: a linearly independent spanning set. Col A: pivot columns of A. Row A: nonzero rows of an echelon form.
Trap Row space basis comes from the ECHELON form; column space basis from the ORIGINAL A.

Notes
Coordinates: x = c₁b₁ + … + cₙbₙ ⇒ [x]_B = (c₁, …, cₙ); find them by solving P_B·c = x.
