Standards: Chapter 2 I understand addition and scalar multiplication of vectors algebraically and geometrically. I know the algebraic properties that vector addition and scalar multiplication satisfy. I know how to multiply an nxm matrix A by a vector x in R^m I can state the definition of the span of a set of vectors. I can determine if a vector in R^n is in the span of a set of vectors. I can determine if a set of vectors spans R^n. I can state the definition of linear dependence and linear independence. I can determine whether a set of vectors is linearly independent or linearly dependent. I have a conceptual understanding of the span of a set of vectors. For example, I know how span(u, v) relates to span(u, v, 2u - 3v), how span(u,v) relates to span(u+v, u), and how span (u,v) relates to span(u,v,w) for some vector w. I understand the connection between solving a linear system and determining if a vector is in the span of other vectors. I have a conceptual understanding of linear dependence and linear independence. I can rephrase the definition of linear independence or dependence in terms of span and in terms of solutions to linear equations. I understand the statement "The following are equivalent."
