Please identify yourself in this photo! There are two ways to do that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Special:Userlogin|Log in]] to this Wiki and edit this page. Put your name, userid, email address and location in the picture in the alphabetical list below.&lt;br /&gt;
* Send [[User:Drorbn|Dror]] an email message with this information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first option is more fun but less private.&lt;br /&gt;

===Linear Combination===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{Definition: Let }(u_i) = (u_1,u_2,\ldots,u_n)\mbox{ be a sequence of vectors in }V&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{A sum of the form:}{}_{}^{}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; a_i\in F,\sum_{i=1}^n a_i u_i = a_1u_1 + a_2u_2+\ldots+a_nu_n&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{is called a Linear Combination of the }u_i^{ }&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Span===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{span}(u_i^{ }):= \lbrace\mbox{ The set of all possible linear combinations of the } u_i^{ }\rbrace&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{If }\mathcal{S} \subset V\ \mbox{ is any subset, }&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{span}(\mathcal{S}):= \lbrace\mbox{The set of all linear combination of vectors in }\mathcal{S}\rbrace=\left\lbrace\sum_{i=0}^n a_i u_i,\quad a_i \in F, u_i \in \mathcal{S}\right\rbrace&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{span}(\mathcal{S})\mbox{ always contains }0\mbox{ even if }\mathcal{S}=\emptyset&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Theorem&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\forall\mathcal{S} \subset V\mbox{, span}(\mathcal{S})\mbox{ is a subspace of }V&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{Proof:}{}_{}^{}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;0 \in\mbox{ span}(\mathcal{S})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
2. &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{Let }x \in \mbox{ span}(\mathcal{S})\Rightarrow x =\sum_{i=1}^n a_iu_i\mbox{, }u_i\in \mathcal{S}\mbox{, }&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{and let }y \in \mbox{ span}(\mathcal{S})\Rightarrow y =\sum_{i=1}^m b_iv_i\mbox{, }v_i\in \mathcal{S}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;x+y = \sum_{i=1}^n a_iu_i+ \sum_{i=1}^m b_iv_i = \sum_{i=1}^{\mbox{max}(m,n)} c_iw_i&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\qquad\mbox{ where }c_i=(a_1+b_1,a_2+b_2,\ldots,a_{\mbox{max}(m,n)}+b_{\mbox{max}(m,n)})\mbox{ and }w_i\in\mathcal{S}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3.&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;cx= c\sum_{i=1}^n a_iu_i=\sum_{i=1}^n(ca_i)u_i\in\mbox{ span}(\mathcal{S})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;Example&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
1. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{Let } P_3(\mathbb{R})=\lbrace ax^3+bx^2+cx+d\rbrace\subset P(\mathbb{R})\mbox{, where }a, b, c, d \in \mathbb{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{matrix}u_1^{}&amp;amp;=&amp;amp;x^3-2x^2-5x-3\\&lt;br /&gt;
u_2^{}&amp;amp;=&amp;amp;3x^3-5x^2-4x-9\\&lt;br /&gt;
v_{}^{}&amp;amp;=&amp;amp;2x^3-2x^2+12x-6\end{matrix}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{Let }W=\mbox{span}(u_1^{},u_2^{})\mbox{,}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{Does/Is } v \in W\mbox{ ?}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;v\in W\mbox{ if it is a linear combination of span}(u_1^{},u_2^{})&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;v=a_1u_1 + a_2u_2 \mbox{ for some }a_1, a_2 \in \mathbb{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{If }\exists a_1,a_2\in \mathbb{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{matrix}2x^3-2x^2+12x-6&amp;amp;=&amp;amp; a_1^{}(x^3-2x^2-5x-3) + a_2^{}(3x^3-5x^2-4x-9)\\&lt;br /&gt;
\ &amp;amp;=&amp;amp;(a_1^{}+3a_2^{})x^3 + (-2a_1^{}-5a_2^{})x^2 + (-5a_1^{}-4a_2^{})x + (-3a_1^{}-9a_2^{})\end{matrix}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{Need to solve}\begin{cases}&lt;br /&gt;
2=a_1^{}+3a_2^{}\\&lt;br /&gt;
-2=-2a_1^{}-5a_2^{}\\&lt;br /&gt;
12=-5a_1^{}-4a_2^{}\\&lt;br /&gt;
-6=-3a_1^{}-9a_2^{}\end{cases}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{Solve the four equations above and we will get }a_1^{}=-4\mbox{ and }a_2^{}=2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{Check if }a_1^{}=-4\mbox{ and }a_2^{}=2\mbox{ holds for all 4 equations.}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\mbox{Since it holds, } v\in W&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
