    Show that a set of vectors spans a subspace

    Homework Statement Show that {(1, 2, 3), (3, 4, 5), (4, 5, 6)} does not span R3. Show that it spans the subspace of R3 consisting of all vectors lying in the plane with the equation x - 2y + z = 0. Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution I made a matrix of: A = [ 1 3 4 ; 2 4 5; 3 5 6] and...
