Exercise 1.4.12

Answers

To prove span(S1) span(S2) we may let v S1. Then we can write v = a1x1 + a2x2 + + a3x3 where xi is an element of S1 and so is S2 for all n = 1,2,,n. But this means v is a linear combination of S2 and we complete the proof. If span(S1) = V , we know span(S2) is a subspace containing span(S1). So it must be V .
