Can someone please help me with this proof? I dont know how to go about this one. Thanks! :)
Solution
a.
Let v+W be a subspace of V
So let w be in W
Hence,v+w is in v+W
v+W is subspace so
-v-w is in v+W
Hence, for some x in W
v+x=-v-w
Adding v to both sides
2v+x=-w
2v=-x-w
HEnce, v is in W
Now let v in W
So for any x,y in v+W
x+y is in W since v+W is in W
So, x+y=v+(-v+x+y) which is in v+W
Hence, v+W is a subspace
b)
v1+W=v2+W means for any
v1+w in v1+W there is some v2+v in v2+W so that
v1+w=v2+v
Hence,v1-v2=v-w
But v-w is in W
Hence, v1-v2 is in W
Let, v1-v2 be in W
Hence
v1-v2=w for some w in W
So for any v1+x in v1+W for x in W
v1+x=v1-v2+v2+x=v2+(w+x) which is v2+W
Now let ,v2+y be in v2+W for y in W
v2+y=v2-v1+v1+y=v1+(-w+y) which is in v1+W
Hence proved.
