Show that if \(S_{1}\) and \(S_{2}\) are subsets of a vector space \(\mathrm{V}\) such that \(S_{1} \subseteq S_{2}\), then $\operatorname{span}\left(S_{1}\right) \subseteq \operatorname{span}\left(S_{2}\right) .\( In particular, if \)S_{1} \subseteq S_{2}\( and \)\operatorname{span}\left(S_{1}\right)=\mathrm{V}$, deduce that span \(\left(S_{2}\right)=\mathrm{V}\). Visit goo.gl/Fi8Epr for a solution.
Is the set of all differentiable real-valued functions defined on \(R\) a subspace of \(C(R)\) ? Justify your answer.
Let \(u, v\), and \(w\) be distinct vectors of a vector space \(\mathrm{V}\). Show that if \(\\{u, v, w\\}\) is a basis for \(\mathrm{V}\), then $\\{u+v+w, v+w, w\\}\( is also a basis for \)\mathrm{V}$.
Let $\mathrm{V}=\left\\{\left(a_{1}, a_{2}\right): a_{1}, a_{2} \in F\right\\}\(, where \)F\( is a field. Define addition of elements of \)\mathrm{V}$ coordinatewise, and for \(c \in F\) and $\left(a_{1}, a_{2}\right) \in \mathrm{V}$, define $$ c\left(a_{1}, a_{2}\right)=\left(a_{1}, 0\right) . $$ Is \(\mathrm{V}\) a vector space over \(F\) with these operations? Justify your answer.
Given \(u=3 \mathbf{i}-4 \mathbf{j}+2 \mathbf{k}, \quad v=2 \mathbf{i}+5 \mathbf{j}-3 \mathbf{k}, \quad w=4 \mathbf{i}+7 \mathbf{j}+2 \mathbf{k} . \quad\) Find: (a) \(2 u-3 v\) (b) \(3 u+4 v-2 w\) \((\mathrm{c}) \quad u \cdot v, \quad u \cdot w, \quad v \cdot w\) \((\mathrm{d}) \quad\|u\|,\|v\|,\|w\|\)
