Answer:

The slope is -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\ \\m=\frac{k-2k}{3k-k}\\ \\m=\frac{-k}{2k}\\ \\m=-\frac{1}{2}$

16. Let W be the set of all vectors in R3 of the form a+2b b -3a Find a basis for Wand state the dimension of W.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

$W=\{\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a+2b\\b\\-3a\end{array}\right]: a,b\in\mathbb{R} \}$

Observe that if the vector $x=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]$ is in W then it satisfies:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}a+2b\\b\\-3a\end{array}\right]=a\left[\begin{array}{c}1\\0\\-3\end{array}\right]+b\left[\begin{array}{c}2\\1\\0\end{array}\right]$

This means that each vector in W can be expressed as a linear combination of the vectors $\left[\begin{array}{c}1\\0\\-3\end{array}\right], \left[\begin{array}{c}2\\1\\0\end{array}\right]$
