Exercise 7
Let u=[[2],[4],[3],[2],[4],[3],[5]],v=[[2],[4],[6],[1],[7],[3],[5]],w=[[2],[4],[0],[5],[2],[3],[5]], and z=[[2],[4],[3],[7],[5],[3],[5]].
a. Are the sets {u,v},{u,w},{u,z},{v,w},{v,z},{w,z} each linearly independent? Why or why not?
b. Does the answer to Part (a) imply that {u,v,w,z} is linearly independent?
c. To determine if {u,v,w,z} is linearly dependent, is it wise to check if, say, w is a linear combination of u,v, and z ?
d. Is {u,v,w,z} linearly dependent?
