👉 In mathematics, "spanned" refers to a subset of a vector space that is linearly independent. A set of vectors $\{v_1, v_2, \ldots, v_n\}$ in an $n$-dimensional vector space $\mathbb{R}^n$ defines a span if it forms a basis for the vector space. The span of a set of vectors is the set of all possible linear combinations of these vectors. If the span contains only
