1. When using the Gaussian elimination to solve a linear equation Ax = b, elementary row operations (or multiplication by elementary matrices) are applied to the augmented matrix [A b].

2. The linear combination of a set of vectors is an essential element in linear algebra. We say a set V is invariant under linear combination if the implication "∀n ∈ and any set of vectors {v₁, ..., } ⊂ V ⇒ the set of all linear combinations {c₁v₁ + ... + } ⊂ V" holds. And we say a mapping L defined on a set X is invariant under linear combination if the form of linear combination is unchanged under L, or more precisely the statement ", and any set of vectors {x₁, ..., } ⊂ X, the identity L(c₁x₁ + ... + ) = c₁L(x₁) + ... + holds" is true. Which one of the following statements related to linear combination is false (A)Let S be a subset of a vector space V.

Then (. , .)ᵥ is invariant under linear combination at either one of its two arguments.
