Linear Combination and Linear Independence Note Title 24-02-2021 The expression cyvy + vo +++: + cy, is called a linear combination of vectors V1, V2,...,Vk © IR", where cy, co,..., Cc are scalars. A set of vectors {v1,V2,...,Vv«}is said to be linearly independent if the only scalars C1, C2,..., Ck satisfying cyvy + CoV2 +--- + cv, = 0 are cy = GQ = a fep 0. If vectors are not linearly independent, they are linearly dependent.
