1. [10 points] Consider the set of vectors B= 3 , −1 , 1 and the vector .
1 1 −2
a. Show that the vectors in B are linearly independent. Do they form a basis of R3?
b. Find the coordinates of y, [ y ]B relative to this basis.

2. [10 points] Are the following functions are from f : R2 → R . Are they linear, affine, or neither? If
linear, put the functions in f (x)=aT x form and if it is affine put it in f (x)=aT x +b form. That is,
find the values of the vector a and scalar b (if needed).
a. f (x)=2
b. f (x )=x 1−avg (x )
2. [10 points] Consider the function . Using x = 4 as an initial guess, show the
next three iterations of Newton-Raphson method to find the root of the function.
