![Let \(\vec{a_1} = \begin{bmatrix} 3 \\ 1 \\ 6 \end{bmatrix}\), \(\vec{a_2} = \begin{bmatrix} -1 \\ -1 \\ -3 \end{bmatrix}\), and \(\vec{b} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 \\ 2 \\ 4 \end{bmatrix}\).
**Is \(\vec{b}\) a linear combination of \(\vec{a_1}\) and \(\vec{a_2}\)?**
- ⬜ Yes, \(\vec{b}\) is a linear combination of \(\vec{a_1}\) and \(\vec{a_2}\).
- ⬜ \(\vec{b}\) is not a linear combination of \(\vec{a_1}\) and \(\vec{a_2}\).
- ⬜ We cannot tell if \(\vec{b}\) is a linear combination of \(\vec{a_1}\) and \(\vec{a_2}\).
**Either fill in the coefficients of the vector equation, or enter "DNE" if no solution is possible.**
\[
\vec{b} =
\begin{bmatrix} -0.5 \end{bmatrix} \times \vec{a_1} + \begin{bmatrix} -2.5 \end{bmatrix} \times \vec{a_2}
