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.
