1. When using the Gaussian elimination to solve a linear equation Ax = b, elementary row operations (or multiplication by elementary matrices) are applied to the augmented matrix [Ab].

9. The linear combination of a set of vectors is an essential element in linear algebra. We say a set V is invariant under linear combination if the implication " and any set of vectors the set of all linear combinations V" holds.
