How to find $dim( operatorname{span}(M)+ operatorname{span}(N))$ and $dim(operatorname{span}(Mcap N))$?

$begingroup$


$M={(1,2,1),(3,1,5),(3,-4,7)}$, $N={(1,0,-1),(1,2,1)}$



Let $A= operatorname{span}(M)$ and $B= operatorname{span}(N)$



I want to know how to find $;(a);dim(A+B)$ and $(b);dim(Acap B)$



begin{bmatrix}
1 & 3 & 3 \
2 & 1 & -4 \
1 & 5 & 7
end{bmatrix}
$ sim$
begin{bmatrix}
1 & 3 & 3 \
0 & 1 & 2 \
0 & 0 & 0
end{bmatrix}

Since, only the first two vectors are linearly independent, we have $dim(A)=2$



Clearly, $dim(B)=2$ since it is a linearly independent set(They are not multiple of each other).



I want to make use of:



$dim(A+B)= dim(A)+dim(B)-dim(Acap B)$



So how do I find either of $dim(A+B)$ or $dim(Acap B)$ to get the other ?



Does making a single matrix with the vectors in $M$ and $N$ and calculating its rank help?



begin{bmatrix}
1 & 3 & 3 & 1 &1\
2 & 1 & -4&0 &2 \
1 & 5 & 7 &-1&1
end{bmatrix}

$sim$
begin{bmatrix}
1 & 3 & 3 & 1 &1\
0 & -5 & -10&-2 &0 \
0 & 0 & 0 &14&0
end{bmatrix}

So this gives a rank of 3

    @DietrichBurde I row reduced to find that only first and second vectors are linearly independent. So doesn't that mean its dimension is 2?

    Yes, it does. But where is this written? "So, $dim(A)=2$" is a very poor proof.

    You have written the matrices, yes, but no word about why the rank is not full.

    To find $dim(A+B)$ you can put the generating vectors of $A$ and $B$ in the columns of a matrix and do the same thing as before.
