- R denotes the field of real numbers, Q denotes the field of rationals, and Fp denotes the field of p elements given by integers modulo p. You may refer to general results from lectures. Question 1 For each non-negative integer m, let R[x]m denote the vector space consisting of the polynomials in x with coefficients in R and of degree ≤ m. x²+2, V3 = 5. Prove that (V1, V2, V3) is a linearly independent (a) Let vi = x, V2 = list in R[x] 3. (b) Let V1, V2, V3 be as defined in (a). Find a vector v € R[×]3 such that (V1, V2, V3, V4) is a basis of R[x] 3. [8] [6] (c) Prove that the map ƒ from R[x] 2 to R[x]3 given by f(p(x)) = xp(x) — xp(0) is a linear map.
