Show that the given set V is closed under addition and multiplication by scalars and is therefore a subspace of R³.
V is the set of all y such that 9x = 4y.
---
Z
x+u
a+b= y+v (Simplify your answer.)
z+w
Next, describe the relationship between the first and second components of each of the two vectors a and b.
9x = 4y
9u 4v
Add the left sides of the two equations given in the previous step, and add the right sides.
9(x+u) = 4(y + v)
(Type your answer in factored form.)
Based on the result of the previous step, is the vector sum a + b in V?
equal to
times its second component.
The vector sum a + b ▼an element of the set V because times its first component
(Type an integer or a fraction.)
X
Let c be a scalar. Recall that a = y. Find the scalar multiple ca.
Z
ca =
(Simplify your answer.)
Next, determine the relationship between the first and second components of ca.
9(cx) = c(x) = c(y) = (cy)
Based on the result of the previous step, is the scalar multiple ca in V?
The scalar multiple ca
an element of the set V because
equal to
times its second component.
(Type an integer or a fraction.)
How does the analysis above show that V is a subspace of R³?
Since
▼is/are elements of V, the set V
▼closed under multiplication by scalars and is therefore a subspace of R³.
