Using the idea of a vector space we can easily reprove that the solution set of a homogeneous linear system has either one element or infinitely many elements. Assume that vevis not C)

(a) Prove that if and only if r = 0.

(b) Prove that  if and only if r1 = r2.

(c) Prove that any nontrivial vector space is infinite.

(d) Use the fact that a nonempty solution set of a homogeneous linear system is a vector space to draw the conclusion.
