Explanation / Answer

10. We have W = { (x,y)T: x,y R and x,y are integers}. Now, if be a non-integer scalar, then (x,y)T= (x,y)T may not belong to W. For example, 1/3(2,5)T = (2/3,5/3)T W. Hence W is not closed under scalar multiplication, and therefore, W is not a subspace of R2.

14. Here, W = {(a,b,c)T: a,b,c R and c2 = a2+b2}. Now, if X = (3,4,5)T and Y = (5,12,13)T, then X,Y W. Further, X+Y = (3,4,5)T +(5,12,13)T = (8,16,18)T W as 182 82+162. Hence W is not closed under vector addition, and therefore, W is not a subspace of R3.

32. Here, W = { A: A Mnxn and AB = BA}. Let A and C be 2 arbitrary elements of W and let be an arbitrary scalar. Then AB = BA and CB = BC. Further, (A+C)B = AB +CB = BA+BC = B(A+C) which shows that A+C W so that W is closed under vector addition. Also (A)B = (AB) = (BA)= B(A). Hence A W so that W is closed under scalar multiplication. Further, the nxn zero matrix 0 commutes with all nxn matrices so that 0 W. Hence W is a vector space, and therefore, W is a subspace of Mnxn.
