3 10 -7 12
3 12
0 -9
Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box(es) within your choice.
O A. The columns of the matrix do not form a linearly independent set because the set contains more vectors,
than there are entries in each vector,
(Type whole numbers.)
O B. The columns of the matrix do not form a linearly independent set because there are more entries in each vector,
than there are vectors in the set,
(Type whole numbers.)
O C. Let A be the given matrix. Then the columns of the matrix form a linearly independent set since the vector equation, Ax = 0, has only the trivial solution.
O D. The columns of the matrix form a linearly independent set because at least one vector in the set is a constant multiple of another.
