1. Let V denote the set of all real-valued functions f(x) that satisfy the equation f"(x) = -f(x). (a) Show that the function f(x) = a sin(x)+ b cos(x) is in V for every a, b e R. (In other words, show that a sin(x) + b cos(x) satisfies the equation above.) (b) Show that the set V satisfies the axioms of a vector space over the field of real numbers. (Thus, the set of solutions to the equation above forms a vector space.)

1. Let V denote the set of all real-valued functions f(x) that satisfy the
equation f"(x) = -f(x).
(a) Show that the function f(x) = a sin(x)+ b cos(x) is in V for every
a, b e R. (In other words, show that a sin(x) + b cos(x) satisfies
the equation above.)
(b) Show that the set V satisfies the axioms of a vector space over the
field of real numbers. (Thus, the set of solutions to the equation
above forms a vector space.)
