Answer

$[x]_B=\begin{bmatrix} 1/4\\ -5/4\\ \end{bmatrix} $

Work Step by Step

We can calculate the B coordinate vector of x by row reducing the augmented matrix $\begin{bmatrix} 1&-3&4\\ 5&-7&10\\ -3&5&-7 \end{bmatrix} $~$\begin{bmatrix} 1&0&1/4\\ 0&1&-5/4\\ 0&0&0 \end{bmatrix}$ $[x]_B=\begin{bmatrix} 1/4\\ -5/4\\ \end{bmatrix} $
