Write the solution set of the given homogeneous systems in parametric vector form.
$\begin{array}{rrrr}
-2x_1& +2x_2& +4x_3& =0\\
-4x_1& -4x_2& -8x_3& =0\\
&-3x_2& -3x_3& =0
\end{array}\implies
\left[\begin{array}{rrrr}
x_1\\x_2\\x_3
\end{array}\right]
=\left[\begin{array}{rrrr}
-2\\-4\\\color{red}{0}
\end{array}\right]x_1
+\left[\begin{array}{rrrr}
2\\-4\\-3
\end{array}\right]x_2
+\left[\begin{array}{rrrr}
4\\-8\\-3
\end{array}\right]x_3$
red is a null space

ok its looks straight forward but still ? typos etc
is there an online calculator to check these
no book answer on this one

No. The sum is not equal to "$\begin{bmatrix}x_1 \\ x_2 \\ x_3 \end{bmatrix}$. It is equal to "$\begin{bmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}$".
I also do not understand why you have written the "0" in red and called it a "null space". It is simply the number 0.

This is $\begin{bmatrix} -2 \\ -4 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix} x_1+ \begin{bmatrix} 2 \\ -4 \\ 3 \end{bmatrix} x_2+ \begin{bmatrix} 4 \\ -8 \\ -3 \end{bmatrix}x_3= \begin{bmatrix}0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}$.
 
ok i tried to follow a hand written example in saw on Google images 😕
 
##\textbf{Exercise 10}:## I came across the following solution online: Questions: 1. When the author states in "that ring (not sure if he is referring to ##R## or ##R/\mathfrak{p}##, but I am guessing the later) ##x_n x_{n+1}=0## for all odd $n$ and ##x_{n+1}## is invertible, so that ##x_n=0##" 2. How does ##x_nx_{n+1}=0## implies that ##x_{n+1}## is invertible and ##x_n=0##. I mean if the quotient ring ##R/\mathfrak{p}## is an integral domain, and ##x_{n+1}## is invertible then...
The following are taken from the two sources, 1) from this online page and the book An Introduction to Module Theory by: Ibrahim Assem, Flavio U. Coelho. In the Abelian Categories chapter in the module theory text on page 157, right after presenting IV.2.21 Definition, the authors states "Image and coimage may or may not exist, but if they do, then they are unique up to isomorphism (because so are kernels and cokernels). Also in the reference url page above, the authors present two...
When decomposing a representation ##\rho## of a finite group ##G## into irreducible representations, we can find the number of times the representation contains a particular irrep ##\rho_0## through the character inner product $$ \langle \chi, \chi_0\rangle = \frac{1}{|G|} \sum_{g\in G} \chi(g) \chi_0(g)^*$$ where ##\chi## and ##\chi_0## are the characters of ##\rho## and ##\rho_0##, respectively. Since all group elements in the same conjugacy class have the same characters, this may be...
