Verify that B={(3,2,0),(0,2,3)} is a basis for the plane 2x[1]-3x[2]+2x[3]=0 (numbers in square brackets denote subscript)
How to determine whether a vector, say, (1,2,2) or (5,4,1), lie in the plane given above?
There is this hint that says to check whether the set spans the plane, solve the system that arises from asking what condition(s) an arbitrary b must satisfy to be a linear combination of the given vectors. But since I am doing not very well in this chapter, I am having some hard time getting the hint...if possible, a detailed step by step explanation of how to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated..Thanks! :)
