Exercise 10.4.2

Avg difficulty 3.0

Let B={[1−12],[212],[−102]}B=\left\{\left[\begin{array}{r}1\\ -1\\ 2\end{array}\right],\left[\begin{array}{r}2\\ 1\\ 2\end{array}\right],\left[\begin{array}{r}-1\\ 0\\ 2\end{array}\right]\right\} be a basis of R3\mathbb{R}^{3} and let x=[5−14]\mathbf{x}=\left[\begin{array}{r}5\\ -1\\ 4\end{array}\right] be a vector in R2\mathbb{R}^{2}. Find [x]B\left[\mathbf{x}\right]_{B}.
