    True

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We are given that x and y are linearly independent, if {x, y, z} is linearly independent then z is in span{x, y}.

    We have to check that given statement is true or false.

    Linearly independent set: A set is called linearly independent if any element is not a linear combination of two or more than two elements of the set.

    Dependent set: A set is called linearly dependent when any element of a set is the linear combination of two or more than two elements of the set.

    x and y are linearly independent and {x, y, z} is linearly dependent.

    It means z is a linear combination of x and y. z is span by x and y.

    Therefore, the statement is true.
