Show that if       is a linearly independent set of vectors, then so are , , , , ,
                           is a linearly independent set of vectors, then so is every nonempty subset of S.
10. and  .

     Show that if
11.

     Show that if             is a linearly dependent set of vectors in a vector space V, and is any vector in V, then
12.                is also linearly dependent.

     Show that if                 is a linearly dependent set of vectors in a vector space V, and if       are any vectors in
13. V, then                                is also linearly dependent.

     Show that every set with more than three vectors from is linearly dependent.
14.

     Show that if  is linearly independent and does not lie in span                , then                  is linearly independent.
15.

     Prove: For any vectors u, v, and w, the vectors , , and               form a linearly dependent set.
16.

     Prove: The space spanned by two vectors in is a line through the origin, a plane through the origin, or the origin itself.
