Problem 3Show that additive inverses in vector spaces are unique, i.e. for any given vectorv in a vector space V, there exists a unique v* € V such that v+v* = v*+v = : Ογ.Hint: take any vector v EV and suppose v₁ and v2 are both additive inversesof v. Try to show that v₁ = v2.Desired takeaways: Learning to prove uniqueness of an object by showingequality of potential two candidate objects.
