Homework Statement

[tex]\begin{pmatrix} t \\ 3 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} 4 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}[/tex]
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I computed the wronskian to be t-12. Since the wronskian is 0 at t=12, shouldn't this be linearly dependent? The book says that this is linearly independent. Why is that?
