Is this linear dependent? Because I cannot solve this linear system of equations..

Are the vectors $v_{1},v_{2},v_{3}$ linear independant?

$$v_{1}=\begin{pmatrix} &1& \\ &1&\\ &1& \end{pmatrix},v_{2}=\begin{pmatrix} &1& \\ &0&\\ &0& \end{pmatrix},v_{3}= \begin{pmatrix} &0& \\ &1&\\ &1& \end{pmatrix}$$

So I wrote this:

$$a\begin{pmatrix} &1& \\ &1&\\ &1& \end{pmatrix}+b\begin{pmatrix} &1& \\ &0&\\ &0& \end{pmatrix}+c \begin{pmatrix} &0& \\ &1&\\ &1& \end{pmatrix}= \begin{pmatrix} &0& \\ &0&\\ &0& \end{pmatrix}$$

From this we get these linear systems:

$$I: a+b=0$$

$$II: a+c=0$$

$$III: a+c=0$$

But I cannot solve it because II and III is same so actually we only have $2$ systems with $3$ unknowns I don't know what to do...? >.<

you can write $$b=-a$$ and $$c=-a$$ and your vectors are dependant
