(A) The range of the transformation x 7 Ax is the column space of A, Col A.
(B) You have found a basis for Nul A, and not Row A. (C) The codomain is R3 ; the range is a subspace of the codomain. (D) Col A = Span { columns of A}. And, the dimension of the range equals dim(Col A), which is the number of vectors in a basis of Col A. The columns of A, while they do span the column space Col A, are not linearly independent, therefore they do not form a basis. So, you know for sure that dim Col A < 4. (E) This is how to find dim Nul A. (F) The dimension of the range equals dim Col A, which equals the number of pivot columns. (G) A basis of Row A is the nonzero columns in the row reduced echelon form of A. (H) If A is invertible, then Ax = 0 has only the trivial solution. Hence, Ax = 0x has only the trivial solution. Therefore, using the definition of eigenvalue, 0 cannot be an eigenvalue of A. (I) Two matrices A and B can have different eigenvalues even if they are row equivalent. For example
1 0 2 0 A= is row equivalent to B = , 0 1 0 3 but A has the eigenvalue 1, while B has eigenvalues 2 and 3. (J) Only Ax = 0 can have trivial solutions. The trivial soln to this equation is to plug in 0 for x. Ax = b can not have a trivial solution as a solution, if b is nonzero; it can only have solutions. (K) See example on page 13 of the lecture 24 notes. (L) You made a mistake somewhere in row reducing.
