Is w\mathbf{w} in {v1,v2,v3}\left\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\right\} ? How many vectors are in {v1,v2,v3}\left\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\right\} ? b. How many vectors are in Span{v1,v2,v3}\operatorname{Span}\left\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\right\} ? c.

Is w\mathbf{w} in {v1,v2,v3}\left\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\right\} ? A. Vector w\mathbf{w} is not in {v1,v2,v3}\left\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\right\} because it is not a linear combination of v1,v2\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, and v3\mathbf{v}_{3}. B. Vector w\mathbf{w} is in {v1,v2,v3}\left\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\right\} because the subspace generated by v1,v2\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, and v3\mathbf{v}_{3} is R3\mathbb{R}^{3}. C. Vector w\mathbf{w} is not in {v1,v2,v3}\left\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\right\} because it is not v1,v2\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, or v3\mathbf{v}_{3}. D. Vector w\mathbf{w} is in {v1,v2,v3}\left\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\right\} because it is a linear combination of v1,v2\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, and v3\mathbf{v}_{3}.

Studdy Solution
Solve the system of equations:
Using substitution or elimination methods, solve the system:
1. From the second equation: b+2c=1b=12cb + 2c = 1 \Rightarrow b = 1 - 2c
2. Substitute b=12cb = 1 - 2c into the first and third equations:

- First equation: a+4(12c)+7c=5a + 4(1 - 2c) + 7c = 5 - Simplify: a+48c+7c=5a + 4 - 8c + 7c = 5 - ac=1a - c = 1
- Third equation: a+5(12c)+11c=4-a + 5(1 - 2c) + 11c = 4 - Simplify: a+510c+11c=4-a + 5 - 10c + 11c = 4 - a+c=1-a + c = -1
3. Solve the simplified system: - ac=1a - c = 1 - a+c=1-a + c = -1
Adding these equations gives 0=00 = 0, which is consistent but does not determine unique values for a,b,ca, b, c.
Thus, w\mathbf{w} can be expressed as a linear combination of v1,v2,v3\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}.
The answers to the questions are: a. C. Vector w\mathbf{w} is not in {v1,v2,v3}\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\} because it is not v1,v2\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, or v3\mathbf{v}_{3}. A. The number of vectors in {v1,v2,v3}\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\} is 33. b. B. There are infinitely many vectors in Span{v1,v2,v3}\operatorname{Span}\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\}. c. w\mathbf{w} is in the subspace spanned by {v1,v2,v3}\{\mathbf{v}_{1}, \mathbf{v}_{2}, \mathbf{v}_{3}\} because it can be expressed as a linear combination of these vectors.
