- Prove that if R and S are fields, then the direct sum RS is not a field. [Type here][Type here]arrow_forwardLabel each of the following as either true or false. If a set S is not an integral domain, then S is not a field. [Type here][Type here]arrow_forward[Type here] True or False Label each of the following statements as either true or false. 2. Every field is an integral domain. [Type here]arrow_forward
- 14. a. If is an ordered integral domain, prove that each element in the quotient field of can be written in the form with in . b. If with in , prove that if and only if in .arrow_forwardProve that if R is a field, then R has no nontrivial ideals.arrow_forwardLet be a field. Prove that if is a zero of then is a zero ofarrow_forward
- Suppose S is a subset of an field F that contains at least two elements and satisfies both of the following conditions: xS and yS imply xyS, and xS and y0S imply xy1S. Prove that S is a field. This S is called a subfield of F. [Type here][Type here]arrow_forward10. An ordered field is an ordered integral domain that is also a field. In the quotient field of an ordered integral domain define by . Prove that is a set of positive elements for and hence, that is an ordered field.arrow_forwardLet F be a field and f(x)=a0+a1x+...+anxnF[x]. Prove that x1 is a factor of f(x) if and only if a0+a1+...+an=0. Prove that x+1 is a factor of f(x) if and only if a0+a1+...+(1)nan=0.arrow_forward
- Suppose that f(x),g(x), and h(x) are polynomials over the field F, each of which has positive degree, and that f(x)=g(x)h(x). Prove that the zeros of f(x) in F consist of the zeros of g(x) in F together with the zeros of h(x) in F.arrow_forwardIf a0 in a field F, prove that for every bF the equation ax=b has a unique solution x in F. [Type here][Type here]arrow_forwardProve Theorem Suppose is an irreducible polynomial over the field such that divides a product in , then divides some .arrow_forward
