i am given a formula and asked to find the ker
of the matrices of the standart base

this is the link were i tried to solve it:

when i try to find the ker (T)

i get all zeros

i don't know where i get it wrong

my theory says that after we simplify the matrix
A*(x,y,z)=(0,0,0)

so i built equation and all i get is all zeros
and that not the answer in the book
where did i got it wrong?

how to find ker (t) ??
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
