Answer:

STEP 1

M_{4,2} is set of 4x2 matrices hence each matrix has 4*2=8 entries. Each entry can be filled independently.

Hence its basis has 8 linearly independent vectors.

STEP 2

Dimension= cardinality of basis = 8.

All exercises involve the same concept, so I'll show you how to do the first, then you can apply the exact same logic to all the others.

The first thing you need to know is that, when a certain quantity multiplies a parenthesis, you can distribute that number to every element in the parenthesis. This means that

$a(b+c) = ab+ac$

So, $a$ is multiplying the parenthesis involving $b$ and $c$ , and we distributed it: $a$ multiplies both $b$ and $c$ in the final result.

Secondly, you have to know how to recognize like terms, because they are the only terms you can sum. Two terms can be summed if they have the same literal expression. So, for example, you cannot sum $3x+2y$ , and neither $5x^2-4x$ exponents count.
