(c) If S = {V₁, V₂, ..., Vn} is a set of vectors in a finite-dimensional vector space V, then S is called a basis for V if S is linearly independent and every vector b = (b₁,b₂,..., bn) in V can be expressed as b = c₁v₁ + C₂V₂ + ... + CnVn where C₁, C₂, ..., Cn are scalars. Calculate the basis for the solution space of the following system of linear equations and verify your answer. x₁ + 2x3 x4 = 0 -x₂ + 2x4 = 0
