Work Step by Step

We are given $S=\{(10,-6,5);(3,-3,2),(0,0,0),(6,4,-1),(7,7,-2)\}$ in $R^3$ Obtain the matrix $A=\begin{bmatrix} 10 & -6 & 5\\ 3 & -3 & 2\\ 0 & 0 & 0\\ 6 & 4 & -1\\ 7 & 7 & -2 \end{bmatrix} \approx \begin{bmatrix} 10 & -6 & 5\\ 0 & -10 & 5\\ 0 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & -76 & 40\\ 0 & -42 & 20 \end{bmatrix}\approx \begin{bmatrix} 10 & -6 & 5\\ 0 & -10 & 5\\ 0 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & -2\\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} \approx \begin{bmatrix} 10 & -6 & 5\\ 0 & -10 & 5\\ 0 & 0 & -2\\ 0 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}$ Therefore, $S$ spans $R^3$.
