Answer:

1) W₁ is a subspace of Pₙ (R)

2) W₂ is not a subspace of Pₙ (R)

4) W₃ is a subspace of Pₙ (R)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

1.Let W₁ be the set of all polynomials of the form p(t) = at², where a is in R

2.Let W₂ be the set of all polynomials of the form p(t) = t² + a, where a is in R

3.Let W₃ be the set of all polynomials of the form p(t) = at² + at, where a is in R

so

1)

let W₁ = { at² ║ a∈ R }

let ∝ = a₁t² and β = a₂t²  ∈W₁

let c₁, c₂ be two scalars

c₁∝ + c₂β = c₁(a₁t²) + c₂(a₂t²)

= c₁a₁t² + c²a₂t²

= (c₁a₁ + c²a₂)t² ∈ W₁

Therefore c₁∝ + c₂β ∈ W₁ for all ∝, β ∈ W₁  and scalars c₁, c₂

Thus, W₁ is a subspace of Pₙ (R)

2)

let W₂ = { t² + a ║ a∈ R }

the zero polynomial 0t² + 0 ∉ W₂

because the coefficient of t² is 0 but not 1

Thus W₂ is not a subspace of Pₙ (R)

3)

let W₃ = { at² + a ║ a∈ R }

let ∝ = a₁t² +a₁t  and β = a₂t² + a₂t ∈ W₃

let c₁, c₂ be two scalars

c₁∝ + c₂β = c₁(a₁t² +a₁t) + c₂(a₂t² + a₂t)

= c₁a₁t² +c₁a₁t + c₂a₂t² + c₂a₂t

= (c₁a₁ +c₂a₂)t² + (c₁a₁t + c₂a₂)t ∈ W₃

Therefore c₁∝ + c₂β ∈ W₃ for all ∝, β ∈ W₃ and scalars c₁, c₂

Thus, W₃ is a subspace of Pₙ (R)

2x + y = 7 y = x + 1 When the expression x+1 is substituted in for y in the first equation, the result is
Charra [1.4K]

2x + y = 7

substitute

2x + (x+1) =7

combine like terms

3x+1 =7

subtract 1 from each side

3x =6

divide by 3

x=2

y = x+1

y =2+1

y=3

Answer: x=2, y=3
