Most straightforward is to do Gaussian elimination with the vectors
as rows:
The vectors are linearly dependent; the rank is 2.
How about as columns?
should have nontrivial solutions.
The rank is again 2. Since the solution of the system c1, c2,
and c3 can be nonzero, the vectors are linearly dependent.
