Generalizing the Replacement Theorem
Let
be a basis for a vector space
and let
be a linear independent subset of
. Prove there exists a subset of
,
, such that
is a basis for 
Proof
Let
be the set of all elements in
such that
is linearly independent. Now consider 
Note that every vector in
can be expressed as a linear combination of vectors in
. So it follows that every vector in
can be expressed as a linear combination of vectors in 
Thus
is linearly independent and generates
, so it is a basis.
Is this proof 100% correct?
