Answer

Step 3: The remaining row is a basis for the row space. The dimension is the number of vectors in the basis, which is 1 in this case.

Steps

Step 1 :Step 1: Reduce the matrix to row-echelon form. This can be achieved by subtracting the first row from the second and third rows, and then dividing the second and third rows by 1 and 2 respectively: (123 000 000)

Step 2 :Step 2: Remove the rows of zeros, since they do not contribute to the basis of the row space: (123)

Step 3 :Step 3: The remaining row is a basis for the row space. The dimension is the number of vectors in the basis, which is 1 in this case.
