**25.** Let \( A = \begin{bmatrix}
1 & 0 & -4 \\
0 & 3 & -2 \\
-2 & 6 & 3 
\end{bmatrix} \) and \( \mathbf{b} = \begin{bmatrix}
4 \\
1 \\
-4 
\end{bmatrix} \). Denote the columns of \( A \) by \( \mathbf{a_1}, \mathbf{a_2}, \mathbf{a_3} \), and let \( W = \text{Span} \{ \mathbf{a_1}, \mathbf{a_2}, \mathbf{a_3} \} \).

### Linear Algebra Exercises

1. **Is \( \mathbf{b} \) in \(\{ \mathbf{a}_1, \mathbf{a}_2, \mathbf{a}_3 \}\)? How many vectors are in \(\{ \mathbf{a}_1, \mathbf{a}_2, \mathbf{a}_3 \}\)?**
   
2. **Is \( \mathbf{b} \) in \( W \)? How many vectors are in \( W \)?**
   
3. **Show that \(\mathbf{a}_1\) is in \( W \). [**Hint:** Row operations are unnecessary.]**

In these exercises, you are asked to analyze the relationship between different vectors and vector spaces. For these problems, consider:
- \(\mathbf{b}\), \(\mathbf{a}_1\), \(\mathbf{a}_2\), and \(\mathbf{a}_3\) are vectors in a given vector space.
- \(W\) represents a subspace or another vector space that we are interested in.

### Detailed Explanations:

- **Question (a):**
  - Determine whether the vector \( \mathbf{b} \) is an element of the set \( \{ \mathbf{a}_1, \mathbf{a}_2, \mathbf{a}_3 \} \).
  - Count the number of vectors included in the set \( \{ \mathbf{a}_1, \mathbf{a}_2, \mathbf{a}_3 \} \).

- **Question (b):**
  - Determine whether the vector \( \mathbf{b} \) is an element of the vector space \( W \).
  - Count the number of vectors included in the vector space \( W \).

- **Question (c):**
  - Prove that the vector \(\mathbf{a}_1\) is an element of the vector space \( W \).
  - Note that row operations are not needed for this proof; try to use other properties of the vectors or the definition of the vector space \( W \).
