x = 1/5(a+b), y= −b

x = 1/5(a−b), y= a+b
x = 1/5(a−b), y= −b

x = 1/5(a+b), y= b  

x = 1/5(a−b), y=a−b

Consider the vectors \( \mathbf{v}_1 = \begin{bmatrix} 5 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix} \), \( \mathbf{v}_2 = \begin{bmatrix} 1 \\ -1 \end{bmatrix} \) in \( \mathbb{R}^2 \). If we write the vector \( \mathbf{v} = \begin{bmatrix} a \\ b \end{bmatrix} \) as the linear combination \( x \mathbf{v}_1 + y \mathbf{v}_2 \), then
