Sample Matrix Independence Test/Examples/Linearly Independent Solutions of y'' - y = 0

Example of Sample Matrix Independence Test: Linearly Independent Solutions of $y'' - y = 0$
Prove independence of the solutions $e^x$, $e^{-x}$ to:


 * $y'' - y = 0$

Proof
Choose samples $x_1 = 0$, $x_2 = 1$ from set $J = \R$.

Define $\map {f_1} x = e^x$, $\map {f_2} x = e^{-x}$.

Then the sample matrix is:


 * $S = \begin{bmatrix}

1 & 1 \\ e & 1/e \\ \end{bmatrix}$

Matrix $S$ is invertible.

Then $\map {f_1} x = e^x$, $\map {f_2} x = e^{-x}$ are linearly independent.
