Lecture 9: Independence, basis, and dimension

When does Ax = b have solutions x, and how can we describe those solutions? We describe all solutions to Ax = b based on the free variables and special solutions encoded in the reduced form R.

These video lectures of Professor Gilbert Strang teaching 18.06 were recorded in Fall 1999 and do not correspond precisely to the current edition of the textbook. However, this book is still the best reference for more information on the topics covered in each lecture.
