In this problem, we want to determine whether the following statement is true or false.
00:07
We are given three vectors v1, v2, and v3, which are in r3.
00:12
We are told that v3 is not a linear combination of v1 and v2.
00:17
Does this imply that the set of v1, v2, and v3 vectors are linearly independent? first, let's recall what does it mean to have linearly independent or dependent vectors.
00:29
So v1, v2, and v3 are linearly dependent if there exists a solution, a non -trivial solution, to the following equation.
00:54
A times v1 plus b times v2 plus c times v3 equal to zero.
01:04
When i mean by non -trivial solution, i mean where a, b, c are not all equal to zero.
01:25
So a, b, c are just simply some coefficients...
