All polynomials of the form p(t) = a + bt2, where a and b are in sets is a subspace of Pn for an appropriate
Consider the following subsets of Pn given by
The 0 vector of V is in W.
- Given v,w in W then v+w is in W.
- Given v in W and a a real number, then av is in W.
So, for us to check if the three subsets are a subset of Pn, we must check the three criteria.
First property:
Hence the first criteria is not met. Then, W2 is not a subspace of Pn.
For W1 and W3, note that if a= 0, then we have p(t) =0, so the zero polynomial is in W1 and W3.
W1 and W3 are subspaces of Pn for n= 2
and W2 is not a subspace of Pn.
