The solution set of axequalsb is the set of all vectors of the form wequalspplusbold v subscript h, where bold v subscript h is

ELEN [110]

Answer : Incorrect

Explanation : In the given solution set of Ax = b;
is set of all vectors to form w= p + $V_{h}$
here $V_{h}$ is is any solution of the equation Ax = 0;

this stands to be incorrect, as the correct would only exists when some vector p is found to be like this Ap=b
