Step 1
Given that the vector space V=R , the real line .
The subset W of V is said to be a subspace of V if it is closed under vector addition and scalar multiplication that is
(i) closed under vector addition :
for all u,v ∈ W implies u+v ∈ W.
(ii) Closed under scalar multiplication:
for u ∈ W and k be any scalar, then ku ∈ W .
