27. Fill in the missing axiom numbers in the following proof that
0u = 0 for every u in V.
0u = (0 + 0)u = 0u + 0u by Axiom _____ (a)
Add the negative of 0u to both sides:

- Take this test to review the material in Chapters 4 and 5. After you are finished, check your work against the answers in the back of the book. Prove that the set of all singular 33 matrices is not a vector space.arrow_forwardProve that in a given vector space V, the zero vector is unique.arrow_forwardProve that in a given vector space V, the additive inverse of a vector is unique.arrow_forward
- Suppose y1 ( x), y2 ( x), y3 ( x) are three different functions of x. The vector space they span could have dimension 1, 2, or 3. Give an example of y1, y2, y3 to show each possibility.arrow_forwardVerify that each of the sets in Examples 1– 4 satisfies the axioms fora vector space. Find a basis for each of the vector spaces inExamples 1–4.arrow_forwardSuppose v1, v2, v3, v4 span a vector space ?. Prove that the listv1 − v2, v2 − v3, v3 − v4, v4 also spans ?.arrow_forward
- Can any of the given sets of 3-vectors below span the 3-space? Why or why not? (a) [121] [231] [342]arrow_forwardThe axioms for a vector space V can be used to prove the elementary properties for a vector space. Because of Axiom 2, Axioms 2 and 4 imply, respectively, that 0 + u= u and -u+u = 0 for all u. Complete the proof that -u is unique by showing that if u + w=0, then w=-u. Use the ten axioms of a vector space to justify each step. Axioms In the following axioms, u, v, and w are in vector space V and c and d are scalars. 1. The sum u + v is in V. 2. u+v=V+u 3. (u+v)+w=u+(V+W) 4. V has a vector 0 such that u + 0 = u. 5. For each u in V, there is a vector - u in V such that u + (-1)u = 0. 6. The scalar multiple cu is in V. 7. c(u + v) = cu + cv 8. (c + d)ucu + du 9. c(du) = (cd)u 10. 1u=u Suppose that w satisfies u+w=0. Adding - u to both sides results in the following. (-u) + [u+w] =(-u) +0 [(-u) +u]+w=(-u) +0 by Axiom 2arrow_forwardIs it possible to make Z into a vector space if we redefine addition?arrow_forward
- I need to explain why V is not a vector space over F with respect to the given operations below. I just need to flag one space axiom that fails. In the case below, I cannot find any failing axioms and wonder if it is a trick question, or just erroneous question. V=M2x3(R), F=M2x2(R), the usual matrix addition and matrix multiplication.arrow_forwardGive an example of 3 vectors spaces that are not Rn. Explicitly state the definition of addition and zero vector in each space.arrow_forwardState whether the following statement is true or false: A vector space may have two or more zero vectors.
