i am asked to determine whether 3 vectors which have 5 dimensions (x,y,z,w,u) are linearly dependent or independent in R^3.
it doesn't make any sense. should i ignore w and u dimensions and take x,y,z only? because if i dont, all answers would be same, doesn't matter in r^3 or R^4 etc.
the question is this:
determine whether the given vectors (2,0,1,-1,0) , (1,2,0,3,1) and (4,-4,3,-9,-2) are linearly dependent or independent in R^3?
