Verify that
$\beta=\left\{\begin{bmatrix}
0\\2
\end{bmatrix}
,\begin{bmatrix}
3\\1
\end{bmatrix}\right\}$
is a basis for $\Bbb{R}^2$
Then for $v=\left[
\begin{array}{c}6\\8\end{array}
\right]$, find $[v]_\beta$
ok, I presume next is
$c_1\begin{bmatrix}
0\\2
\end{bmatrix}
+c_2\begin{bmatrix}
3\\1
\end{bmatrix}= \left[
\begin{array}{c}6\\8\end{array}
\right]$
by augmented matrix we get (the book did this?)
$\left[ \begin{array}{cc|c} 0 & 3 & 6 \\ 2 & 1 & 8 \end{array} \right]
=\left[ \begin{array}{cc|c} 1 & 0 & 3 \\ 0 & 1 & 2 \end{array} \right]$
hence
$[v]_{\beta}=\left[
\begin{array}{c}3\\2\end{array}
\right]$
following an example I don't think I understand the notation of $[v]_{\beta}$
 
Physics news on Phys.org
$[v]_\beta$ denotes the coordinates of vector $v$ in basis $\beta$.

Could you say from which textbook this notation is taken?

Thread 'How to define a vector field?'
Hello! In one book I saw that function ##V## of 3 variables ##V_x, V_y, V_z## (vector field in 3D) can be decomposed in a Taylor series without higher-order terms (partial derivative of second power and higher) at point ##(0,0,0)## such way: I think so: higher-order terms can be neglected because partial derivative of second power and higher are equal to 0. Is this true? And how to define vector field correctly for this case? (In the book I found nothing and my attempt was wrong...
