Which of the following subsets of $\mathbf{R}^{3}$ are actually subspaces? (a) The plane of vectors $\left(b_{1}, b_{2}, b_{3}\right)$ with first component $b_{1}=0$. $$ \left(\begin{array}{c} 0 \\ b \\ b s \end{array}\right] $$ (b) The plane of vectors $b$ with $b_{1}=1$. (c) The vectors $b$ with $b_{2} b_{3}=0$ (this is the union of two subspaces, the plane $b_{2}=0$ and the plane $b_{3}=0$ ). (d) All combinations of two given vectors $(1,1,0)$ and $(2,0,1)$. (e) The plane of vectors $\left(b_{1}, b_{2}, b_{3}\right)$ that satisfy $b_{3}-b_{2}+3 b_{1}=0$.
