Question
**Problem Statement:**

Determine whether the vectors 

\[
\left\{ 
\begin{bmatrix} 
1 \\ -1 \\ 3 \\ -1 
\end{bmatrix}, 
\begin{bmatrix} 
3 \\ 1 \\ 2 \\ 0 
\end{bmatrix}, 
\begin{bmatrix} 
1 \\ 5 \\ 1 \\ 2 
\end{bmatrix}, 
\begin{bmatrix} 
1 \\ 2 \\ 4 \\ 2 
\end{bmatrix} 
\right\}
\]

form a basis for \(\mathbb{R}^4\). (You may use any relevant theorem that we have covered; remember that it must be cited and you must explain why the theorem applies.)

Expert Solution
Step 1

A basis for a subspace S of Rn is a set of vectors in S that is linearly independent and is maximal with this property (that is, adding any other vector in S to this subset makes the resulting set linearly dependent).
