Question 1

What does it mean for vectors to be linearly dependent?

  • They point in the same direction
  • At least one can be expressed as a combination of others
  • They are orthogonal

💡 Hint: Think of how many directions they actually span.

Question 2

True or False: A set of vectors can be both linearly dependent and independent at the same time.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider the definitions.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given vectors v₁ = (1, 1, 1), v₂ = (2, 2, 2), and v₃ = (3, 3, 3), prove whether they are dependent or independent.

💡 Hint: Look for scalar relationships.

Question 2

Using the vectors u = (1, 2, 3), v = (4, 5, 6), and w = (7, 8, 9), find the conditions under which these can be independent.

💡 Hint: Matrix properties indicate independence.
