Answer

$u=\left[\begin{array}{l} 5\\ 1\\ 0 \end{array}\right], v=\left[\begin{array}{l} 2\\ 0\\ 1 \end{array}\right]$ Reason: Theorem 1.

Work Step by Step

See Theorem 1, p.196 If $v_{1},v_{2}...,v_{p}$ are in a vector space $V$, then Span $\{v_{1},v_{2}...,v_{p}\}$ is a subspace of V. ------------- We can write the given vector as $\left[\begin{array}{l} 5b+2c\\ b\\ c \end{array}\right]=b\left[\begin{array}{l} 5\\ 1\\ 0 \end{array}\right]+c\left[\begin{array}{l} 2\\ 0\\ 1 \end{array}\right], b,c\in \mathbb{R}$ $ u=\left[\begin{array}{l} 5\\ 1\\ 0 \end{array}\right], v=\left[\begin{array}{l} 2\\ 0\\ 1 \end{array}\right],\quad$ Since $ u,v\in \mathbb{R}^{3}$ and $H=$Span$\{u,v\}$, by Theorem 1, $H$ is a subspace of $ \mathbb{R}^{3}$.
