Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that V is a vector space over the field F (take F=R,C if you prefer).

Let x\in span(S_1). Then, we can write x as a linear combination of elements of s1, that is, there exist v_1,v_2,\cdots,v_k \in S_1 and a_1,a_2,\cdots,a_k\in F such that x=a_1v_1+a_2v_2+\cdots+a_kv_k. Now, S_1\subseteq S_2 then for all y\in S_1 we have that y\in S_2. In particular, taking y=v_j with j=1,2,\cdots,k we have that v_j\in S_2. Then, x is a linear combination of vectors in S2, therefore x\in span(S_2). We conclude that span(S_1)\subseteq span(S_2).

If, additionally  S_2\subseteq S_1 then reversing the roles of S1 and S2 in the previous proof, span(S_2)\subseteq span(S_1). Then span(S_1)\subseteq span(S_2)\subseteq span(S_1), therefore span(S_1)=span(S_2).

Write a cubic function whose graph goes through the points: (-5, 0) (1, 0) (2, -2) (4, 0)
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

f(x) = \frac{1}{7}(x+5)(x-1)(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the give cubic function is,

f(x) = p(x - a)(x - b)(x - c)

Here, a, b, c and d are the x-intercepts of the given graph.

Since, x-intercepts given in the graph are x = -5, 1 and 4,

Equation of the curve will be,

f(x) = p(x + 5)(x - 1)(x - 4)

Since, the graph of this function passes through (2, -2) also

-2 = p(2 + 5)(2 - 1)(2 - 4)

-2 = -p(14)

p = \frac{2}{14}

p = \frac{1}{7}

Therefore, equation will be,

f(x) = \frac{1}{7}(x+5)(x-1)(x-4)

What is 5/7*w=40 1/2
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

56 7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

convert 40 1/2 to a fraction 40 1/2 = 81/2

multiply both sides by  7/5

this gets w by itself on the left

81/2 x 7/5 = 567/10 = 56 7/10
