where
The following corollary of Theorem 2.5.1
is a very important result about the homogeneous linear system
Also
Now, let us assume that rank
Then
So, by Theorem 2.5.1, the solution set of the linear system
We now state another important result whose proof is immediate from Theorem 2.5.1 and Corollary 2.5.3.
In conclusion, for
the set of solutions of the system
is of the form,
where
is a particular solution
of
and
is a solution
is consistent.
