- each statement is true or false. You do not need to give a reason. Problem 1. Consider the vector space P2 of real polynomials of degree at most 2. The set W = {p(x) | p(0) = 1} is a subspace of P2.arrow_forwardSolve the following questions: Q1) Check whether the set W = {(2a + 5b, –a + b, 3a + 4b); a, b are real numbers } is a subspace of R3 or not.arrow_forwardSolve the problem. Find all values of h such that y will be in the subspace of R³ spanned 3] by v1, V2, V3 if v1 = | 2|, v2 =| 4, v3 =| 0, and y = |2|.

- From my linear algebra course practice problems: "Is the subset of polynomials for which p(-1) = p(0) = p(5) a subspace of the vector space of all polynomials? Justify your reasoning." I'm aware of the 3 criteria needed to be met for a subset to be considered a subspace, but I just have no idea how to approach determining whether the zero vector is in the subset, and whether addition and multiplication are closed to the set.arrow_forwardDiagonalized if possible, where is A=[■(4&0&1@1&1&0@3&0&1)].arrow_forwardProblem 25. Suppose yı (x), y2(x), and 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 for each case.arrow_forward
- How do I verify that Problem #8 is true? I think that is what it is asking for. Also, this question and many other questions in this section are very much conceptual. Although, the math can be used to verify if each question is true. This specific problem is from a linear algebra textbook called Linear Algebra w/ Applications and the author is by Jeffrey Holt. Right now, I'm in Section 7.1, which consists of what makes a vector space a vector space. Ironically, the author mentioned something new with an R raised to a matrix, as well as a P raised to a number. Nonetheless, I am most certainly not sure of how to answer the problem, but here are some pictures.arrow_forwardFor which value of a is the solution set of the following system х+5у +z —D b — 5 2х — 4y — z —а+b-3 | a subspace of R³?arrow_forwardI need help for problem (h). Check that the set at (h) is a subspace of Rn or not.arrow_forward
- Let P(1, 4, −2) and Q(2, 2, 0) be two points in three-dimensional space.arrow_forwardThe integers 1 through 36 (inclusive) are used once each as the coefficients for six vectors in P 5 . What is the smallest dimensional subspace that can be spanned by the six vectors? Wholly justify your answer.arrow_forwardLet us say that you are sitting at a coffee shop and you want to impress your significant other by using your linear algebra skills. Suppose that you want to determine the strength of the café au lait you're drinking. You know your café au lait has a certain amount of coffee (x), it is brewed to achieve a certain strength (Sc), and it has a specific amount of milk (y) that could be whole, fat-free, or some other type (Sm). So to determine the strength of your drink, you need to know the quantity and the strength of both ingredients. You set your café au lait equation as follows: x coffee Sc + y milk Sm = z (coffee S'c milk S'm) where x is the quantity of coffee with a known strength Sc y the quantity of milk with a known strength Sm z is the volume of a cup of café au lait with the combined strength (S'c and S'm). This equation looks almost chemical, such as: x Hydrogen + y Oxygen = z H2O (water) 1. Describe the café au lait equation above.2. Choose values of Sc, Sm and S'c, S'm as…arrow_forward
