By judicious selection find a vector ur, such that S ∪ ur will form a basis
for R5
; Judicious means choose ur wisely and rearrangement of the resulting
set of vectors into the modal matrix should result in a matrix in Row Echelon
Form. This means, no elementary row operations will be required for part c)
and easier to determine part e);
