Consider the following vectors. v = [1, 5], u1 = [1, -1], u2 = [4, -1] Give the corresponding linear combination. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) v = ( )u1 + ( )u2 Is the vector v a linear combination of the vectors u1 and u2? O The vector v is a linear combination of u1 and u2. O The vector v is not a linear combination of u1 and u2.

Consider the vectors u=(1,2,-1) and v=(-2,3,4) in R3. Show that w=(-7,-7,9) is a linear combination of u and v and that w'=(1,1,3) is not a linear combination of u and v.

The linear combinations of v = (2, 0, 1) and w = (1, 3, 1) fill a plane. Describe that plane. Find a vector that is not a combination of v and w. That is, find a vector that is not in that plane. Is (3π, 3π, 2π) also in that plane? What about (π, π, π)?

Given vector u = (-2,-3) and v = (-1,3) , find a linear combination of the vectors u and v of the form au + bv that would result in the vector (-10, -6).
