Let B = { b1, … , bn } be a

basis for a vector space V.


Then for each x in V, there
exists a unique set of scalars
c1, … , cn such that
x = c1b1 + ...+ cn bn
Suppose the set B = {b1, …, bn}
is a basis for V and x is in V.
The coordinates of x relative
to the basis B (or the B-
coordinates of x) are the
weights c1, … , cn such that
x = c1b1 + ...+ cn bn
If c1,c2,…,cn are the B-
