Let \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} u = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 3 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix} , and w = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 1 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} (1) Calculate the norm of each vector. (3 points) (2) Are these vectors pairwise orthogonal? (3 points) (3) Are these vectors independent? (4 points) (4) Can they constitute a base for $\mathbb{R}^3$ ? Explain. (3 points)

Step 1
In this case, we have two vectors: -G and ~~0. Since -G is a scalar multiple of the vector G, we can say that the norm of -G is equal to the norm of G, which is denoted as ||G||. The norm of ~~0 is equal to the norm of 0, which is 0. Show more…
