Exercise 1.3.20

Prove that if W is a subspace of a vector space V and w1,w2,,wn are in W, then a1w1 + a2w2 + + anwn W for any scalars a1,a2,,an. Visit goo.gl/KTg35w for a solution.

Answers

Proof. We have that aiwi W for all i. And we can get the conclusion that a1w1, a1w1 + a2w2, a1w1 + a2w2 + a3w3 are in W inductively. □
