Find a basis for the set of vectors v=[x y z] in R^3 that satisfy the equation 5x+6y-2z=0

Solution

Let v= ( x, y, z) (1)

given 5x+6y-2z=0

5x = - 6y + 2z

x = -6y/5 + 2z/5 (2)

Put value of x from (2) into (1), we get

v= ( -6y/5 + 2z/5 , y ,z ) = ( -6y/5 + 2z/5 , y + 0.z, 0.y + z ) = y ( -6/5 , 1 , 0 ) +z ( 2/5 , 0 , 1 )

Hence, basis is { ( -6/5 , 1 , 0 ) , ( 2/5 , 0 , 1 ) }.
