What are the components of u-w?

In summary, a vector in linear algebra is a mathematical object with both magnitude and direction. Linear dependence is the property of a set of vectors where one or more vectors can be expressed as a linear combination of the others. Linear independence refers to a set of vectors that cannot be expressed as a linear combination of each other. To determine if a set of vectors is linearly dependent, one can find the determinant of the matrix formed by the vectors. Linear dependence is significant in vector spaces because it helps determine if a set of vectors spans the entire space and can simplify calculations and problem solving.

Do you know how vectors are added?
If no, look in the script or a book.
If yes, where do you get problems?

can you give me the answer of part a? Because I forget how to do it
