a. Is b in {a1, a2, a3}? How many vectors are in {a₁, a₂, a3}?
b. Is b in W? How many vectors are in W?
c. Show that a2 is in W. [Hint: Row operations are unnecessary.]
a. Is b in {a₁, a2, a3}? Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box(es) to complete your
choice.
○ A. No, b is not in {a₁, a2, 3} since it cannot be generated by a linear combination of a₁, a2, and a3.
B. No, b is not in (a1, a2, a3}
since b is not equal to a₁, a2, or a3.
C. Yes, b is in (a1, a2, a3} since b = a
(Type a whole number.)
D. Yes, b is in (a1, a2, 3} since, although b is not equal to a₁, a2, or a3, it can be expressed as a linear
combination of them. In particular, b =
