If I'm given a set of vectors
{-4; 3; -10} = v1
{2; -2; -3+k} = v2
{2; -6; 14} = v3
I want to find that they are linearly independent if and only if k != something
to solve this is simple but a huge tedious pain (although not nearly as tedious as trying to find a solution to this question)
I just solve:
c1*v1 + c2*v2 + c3*v3 = 0
or
Ax = 0 where a is matrix above
I'm desperately trying to convince matlab that k is a variable but can't do it. I've tried making it symbolic with syms but it doesn't work. Please help me. Thank you
