Assume {u1, U2, u3, u4} does not span R³. Select the best statement. A. {u1, U2, u3} spans R³ if u̸4 is a linear combination of other vectors in the set. B. We do not have sufficient information to determine whether {u₁, u2, u3} spans R³. C. {U1, U2, u3} spans R³ if u̸4 is a scalar multiple of another vector in the set. D. {u1, U2, u3} cannot span R³. E. {U1, U2, u3} spans R³ if u̸4 is the zero vector. F. none of the above
Select the best statement. A. If a set of vectors includes the zero vector 0, then the set of vectors can span R^ as long as the other vectors are distinct. n B. If a set of vectors includes the zero vector 0, then the set of vectors spans R precisely when the set with 0 excluded spans Rª. ○ C. If a set of vectors includes the zero vector 0, then the set of vectors can span Rn as long as it contains n vectors. ○ D. If a set of vectors includes the zero vector 0, then there is no reasonable way to determine if the set of vectors spans Rn. E. If a set of vectors includes the zero vector 0, then the set of vectors cannot span Rn. F. none of the above
