Document Summary

The vector u is in the subset spanned by the columns of a if and only if the system ax = u have a solution. Therefore, we need to decide if ax = u is consistent or not. Note that we don"t have a row of the form [0 0 0 1]. The system above is consistent by theorem 2. The system ax = b have a solution for every b if and only if a has a pivot position in every row by theorem 4. Therefore, we need to see if a has a pivot position in every row: Note that a has pivot positions in every row. As a result, the answer is "yes, u is in the in the subset of r3 spanned by the columns of a. "
