To determine whether b W’ =span{W}, we will reduce A to its RREF , which is

It is now apparent that b W’ =span{W} and b = 2w1+0w2-w3+w4+0w5.

(b). Since b W’ =span{W}, therefore U = span{W U b} = W’.

(c ). It is apparent from the RREF of A that W is a linearly independent set. Hence, there are 5 vectors in a basis for W as also U.

Note: I have usedthe RREF calculator available at www.math.odu.edu/~bogacki/cgi-bin/lat.cgi?c=rref
