Question 11202: Independence and Spanning Are Separate Plane-Basis Obligations

Original question and givens

Use the explicitly supplied finite integer-coordinate vector family in a real coordinate space. Preserve vector order and coefficient pairing. Rank is computed by exact rational elimination; a basis requires both independence and spanning the declared space, not just one condition. vectors=[[1, -11], [0, 1]] must all have dimension 2. Give (vectors,rank,independent?,spans R²?,is an R² basis?). Spanning requires rank 2; a basis additionally requires exactly two independent vectors.
