Multiple Choice ### Question 5: Identifying Linearly Dependent Sets of Vectors in \( P_2 \)**Question**:Which of the following sets of vectors in \( P_2 \) is linearly dependent?**Options**:- **A**. \(\{1, x, x^2\}\)- **B**. \(\{1 + x, 1 - x, 2\}\)- **C**. \(\{x^2 + 1, x^2 - 1, 2x^2\}\)- **D**. \(\{1\}\)**Explanation of Options**:- **Option A**: \(\{1, x, x^2\}\) - This set contains the polynomial basis vectors for the space \( P_2 \), which is a vector space of all polynomials of degree at most 2. This set is linearly independent by definition.- **Option B**: \(\{1 + x, 1 - x, 2\}\) - This set includes vectors that can form a linear combination potentially leading to some redundancy.- **Option C**: \(\{x^2 + 1, x^2 - 1, 2x^2\}\) - This set contains polynomials including different linear transformations of \( x^2 \).- **Option D**: \(\{1\}\) - This set consists of a single vector, which is implicitly linearly independent (a single vector in a vector space cannot be dependent).**Evaluation**:To determine which set is linearly dependent, we should check if any of the sets can form a linear combination where \( c_1v_1 + c_2v_2 + c_3v_3 = 0 \) (where \( c_i \) are scalar constants and not all zero).Answer: Set **B** consists of vectors whose combination leads to linear dependency because the vector \( 2 \) can be formed by linearly combining \( 1 + x \) and \( 1 - x \).Thus, the correct answer is:- **B**. \(\{1 + x, 1 - x, 2\}\)

If a vector can be written as linear combination of other vectors in the set then that set of…
