The video tutorial explains how to determine a basis for a vector space spanned by a set of vectors. It covers the criteria for a set of vectors to be a basis, including independence and spanning. The tutorial demonstrates setting up a vector equation, solving it to check for independence, and using reduced row echelon form to identify basic and free variables. The basis is formed by vectors corresponding to basic variables, while vectors corresponding to free variables can be expressed as linear combinations of the basis vectors.

What are the two conditions for a set of vectors to be considered a basis for a vector space?

• The set must be dependent and span the space.

• The set must be independent and span the space.

• The set must be independent and not span the space.

• The set must be dependent and not span the space.

How do you determine if a set of vectors is independent?

• By checking if the vector equation has only the trivial solution.

• By checking if the vectors can be written as a linear combination.

• By checking if the vector equation has non-trivial solutions.

• By checking if the vectors are orthogonal.
