Solve the following.

1. Determine whether can be written as a linear combination of vectors in S.

S = {(1, 2, 3, 4), (- 1, - 2, - 3, 4), (0, 0, 1, 1)} and v = (1, 2, 3, 5)

1=a–b
2 = 2a – 2b
3 = 3a – 3b +c
5 = 4a +4b + c
1 -1 0 1
2 -2 0 2 -2R1+R2 =R2
3 -3 1 3 -3R1+R3 =R3
4 4 1 5 -4R1+R4 =R4

1 -1 0 1
0 0 0 0 R2 1/8R4
0 0 1 0
0 8 1 1
1 -1 0 1
0 1 1/8 1/8
0 0 1 0
0 0 0 0
a – b =1
b +1/8c = 1/8
c=0

c=0
b = 1/8
a = 9/8
v = au1 + bu2 +cu3
“ v = 9/8u1 +1/8u2 ,,
2. Determine whether the set is linear independent and linear dependent
S = {(4, - 3, 6, 2), (1, 8, 3, 1), (3, - 2, - 1, 0)}

4 1 3 0 1/4R1 = R1
-3 8 -2 0
6 3 -1 0
2 1 0 0

1 1/4 3/4 0
-3 8 -2 0 3R1 + R2 = R2
6 3 -1 0 -6R1 + R3 = R3
2 1 0 0 -2R1 + R4 = R4

1 1/4 3/4 0
0 35/4 1/4 0 4/35R2 =R2
0 3/2 -11/2 0
0 1/2 -3/2 0

1 0 26/35 0
0 1 1/35 0
0 0 1 0
0 0 1 0

C3 = 0
C2 = 0
C1 = 0

“C1 = C2 = C3 = 0,,
Linearly independent
