Please show it step by step. Can we get integers as answers?arrow_forwardList a set of three vectors in R2 that spans R2 from which you can any remove any two of the vectors and still span R² with the remaining one vector. List a set of three vectors in R2 that spans R2 from which you can remove either of two particular vectors and still span R² with the remaining two vectors. However, if you remove the third vector, the remaining two vectors will not span R². State which vectors can and can't be removed. List a set of three vectors in R² that spans R² from which you can remove two particular vectors and still span R² with the remaining one vector. State which vectors can be removed. List a set of three vectors in R2 that spans R2 from which you cannot remove any one of the vectors and still span R2 with the remaining two vectors.arrow_forward

I think that is what it is asking for. Also, this question and many other questions in this section are very much conceptual. Although, the math can be used to verify if each question is true. This specific problem is from a linear algebra textbook called Linear Algebra w/ Applications and the author is by Jeffrey Holt. Right now, I'm in Section 7.1, which consists of what makes a vector space a vector space. Ironically, the author mentioned something new with an R raised to a matrix, as well as a P raised to a number. Nonetheless, I am most certainly not sure of how to answer the problem, but here are some pictures.arrow_forward
