Subspaces and Span

The video tutorial explains the concept of subspaces within vector spaces, using R3 as an example. It describes how a subspace is a smaller vector space within a larger one, emphasizing the importance of closure properties. The tutorial provides a specific example of vectors in R3 to illustrate subspaces. It also introduces the concept of span, which is the set of all possible linear combinations of a set of vectors, and explains its significance in describing vector spaces.

Provide an example of a set of vectors in R3 and describe its span.

What is the span of a set of vectors, and how is it related to subspaces?

Why is it important to understand the concept of subspaces in vector spaces?
