I just want to make sure I'm clear on the whole linearly dependent thing.
If I find the Wronskian of a set of functions and it comes out:
12x^2 + 12x
This would indicate that my set of functions is linearly dependent if the interval included x=0 and would be linearly independent if x never equaled 0.
if I find the wronskian of a set of functions and it comes out:
6 + 12x
This would show that my set of functions is linearly independent for all x.
