Show that two matrices A,B∈Matm,n(F) are row equivalent iff there exists an invertible matrix C∈Matn(F), so that A=C⋅B.
Is the solution that C is row equivalent with the identity matrix since C is invertible? I'm still trying to grasp the basics :-)
Answer
Any invertible matrix can be written as a composition of elementary matrices (each of which represents an elementary row operation). Now, apply the definition of row equivalence. This proves the statement.
