So I got this from my Math professor yesterday, and I am suppose to present this in class tomorrow. I'm suppose to make a proof for the statement.
"Let A be an nxn matrix such that Ax = x for every n-vector x. Then A=I "(I being the identity matrix)
To me, this just seems so obvious that it doesn't need a proof. It's like saying A*B=B what does A have to be? umm.. 1? I don't see how I can write a proof for this. Can someone help me? Where do I even start?
