Define what is meant by the statement that the vectors x1,…,xn∈Rm are linearly independent. Determine whether the following vectors x1,x2,x3∈R3 are linearly independent and justify your answer.
x1=⎝⎛132⎠⎞,x2=⎝⎛240⎠⎞,x3=⎝⎛−104⎠⎞
For the vectors x,y,z taken from a real vector space V consider the statements A) x,y,z are linearly dependent, B) ∃α,β,γ∈R:αx+βy+γz=0, C) ∃α,β,γ∈R, not all =0:αx+βy+γz=0, D) ∃α,β∈R, not both =0:z=αx+βy, E) ∃α,β∈R:z=αx+βy, F) ∄ basis of V that contains all 3 vectors x,y,z.
State if the following implications are true or false (no justification is required): i) A⇒B, vi) B⇒A, ii) A⇒C, vii) C⇒A, iii) A⇒D, viii) D⇒A, iv) A⇒E, ix) E⇒A, v) A⇒F, x) F⇒A.
