Analytical Tools for Statistics Practical Sheet 1 Vector Space and Linear Equations 1) Show that the vectors

s X 1 = [1, 2, 3, 4] , X 2 = [3, 1, 2, 1] and X 3 = [1, 5, 8, 7] are linearly independent. 2) Show that the vectors X 1 = (1, 1, 1) and X 2 = (3, 4, 2) span the sa!e space as Y1 = (",5, 1) and Y2 = (17, 11,3) whereas the vectors X 1 and X 2 do not span the sa!e space as W1 = (2, 2, 2) and W2 = (4, 3, 1) . 3) #ind the di!ension o$ the space %enerated &y the $ollowin% row vectors 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ' ' ' ' ' ' 1 1 1 1 ' ' 1 ' ' ' 1 ' ' 1 ' ' ' 1 ' ' 1
