If u, v, and w are nonzero vectors in r 2 , is w a linear combination of u and v?

Not necessarily. \mathbf u and \mathbf v may be linearly dependent, so that their span forms a subspace of \mathbb R^2 that does not contain every vector in \mathbb R^2.

For example, we could have \mathbf u=(0,1) and \mathbf v=(0,-1). Any vector \mathbf w of the form (r,0), where r\neq0, is impossible to obtain as a linear combination of these \mathbf u and \mathbf v, since

c_1\mathbf u+c_2\mathbf v=(0,c_1)+(0,-c_2)=(0,c_1-c_2)\neq(r,0)

unless r=0 and c_1=c_2.

a stone falls from a ledge and takes 8 seconds to the hit the ground. the stone has an original velocity of 0 m/s. how tall is t
Verizon [17]
Using equation of motion.

S = ut + (1/2)gt²

Where S = Height, t = time, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

time, t = 8 seconds 

Since it was dropped from height, initial velocity, u = 0

S = 0*t + (1/2)gt²

S = (1/2)gt²

S = (1/2)*9.8*8²  = 4.9 * 8 * 8 =  313.6

Therefore the ledge is 313.6 m tall.
