Explanation / Answer

An arbitrary vector in the given subspace V(say) is of the form ( x1,2x1+x2,8x1-4x2,-5x1+8x2)T= x1(1,2,8,-5)T +x2(0,1,-4,8)T. It means an arbitrary vector in the given subspace V can be expressed as a linear combination of 2 linearly independent vectors (1,2,8,-5)T and (0,1,-4,8)T. Hence, {(1,2,8,-5)T,(0,1,-4,8)T } is a basis for the given subspace V of R4.
