Expert Solution
Step 1

There are two vectors in G. We need to find if they are linearly independent.

Consider, a(2 + t) + b(6 - t2) = 0

Or, (2a + 6b) + at - bt2 = 0

Hence, 2a + 6b = 0

a = 0 

-b = 0

Hence, the only possible solution is the triavial solution i.e. a = b = 0

Hence, the two vectors are linearly independent.
