3 The linear transformation $\mathrm { T } : \mathbb { R } ^ { 4 } \rightarrow \mathbb { R } ^ { 4 }$ is represented by the matrix $\mathbf { M } = \left( \begin{array} { r r r r } 1 & 3 & - 2 & 4 \\ 5 & 15 & - 9 & 19 \\ - 2 & - 6 & 3 & - 7 \\ 3 & 9 & - 5 & 11 \end{array} \right)$.\\
(i) Find the rank of $\mathbf { M }$.\\
(ii) Obtain a basis for the null space of T .
