5. (3 points for each) For a linear system A x b , you are given the rank of the coefficient matrix A. In each
case indicate whether the system could have no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions.
(c) True False If rank(A) = 6, then this system has infinitely many solutions.
(d) True False If rank(A) = 7, then this system has exactly one solution.
(e) True False If a system of 6 equations in 6 variables has infinitely many solutions then the
rref of the coefficient matrix is the identity matrix.
