Original question and givens

Use a declared finite generator family in a fixed real coordinate space. Preserve generator order, duplicates and its coefficient pairing; all vector dimensions and coefficient counts must match. A span quantifies over all finite linear combinations, not a fixed-arity sample or an undefined infinite series. v1=[1, 1], v2=[1, -1], target=[1, 3]. Treat the two generators as columns, require determinant≠0, and give (v1,v2,target,signed determinant,coefficient of v1,coefficient of v2,reconstructed target). Use exact reduced rational outputs with positive denominators, omitting /1 for integers.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

After

given coefficient witness and existence of some coefficients are separate

Conditions: none

Span quantifies all finite real linear combinations.These integer/rational instances are declared slices;a failed designated witness does not show every coefficient choice fails.
