Theorem
Let $M = \struct {S, \mathscr I}$ be a matroid.
Let $\mathscr B$ be the set of bases of the matroid $M$.
Then $\mathscr B$ satisfies formulation $5$ of base axiom:
\((\text B 5)\) | $:$ | \(\ds \forall B_1, B_2 \in \mathscr B:\) | \(\ds x \in B_1 \setminus B_2 \implies \exists y \in B_2 \setminus B_1 : \paren {B_2 \setminus \set y} \cup \set x \in \mathscr B \) |
Proof
$\blacksquare$
