Changing $b$ of $AX =b$ [closed]












-1












$begingroup$


Suppose 3 planes of the form $AX=b$ intersect at a unique point. Suppose in this case $b= (1,1,1)$. In case $b$ is changed to $(2,3,4)$ or any other vector, will the planes still intersect at a unique point?

    Is $A$ a vector or a matrix? As written, each row of $A$ corresponds to the coefficients of a plane. What are your thoughts?

In the first case the rank of $[A b]$ is $3$ (unique solution) and the system is consistent. So rank of $A $ is $3$. So any point/vector $binmathbb {R}^3$ can be expressed as a linear combination of columns of $A $. Equivalently there is a unique solution.
