ANSWER:
Solution 36E
Step 1 of 2
Supposeis a linear transformation, where are vector spaces.
Let Z be the subspace of W.
The set is defined as.
The objective is to prove that is a subspace of V.
Since T is a linear transformation and, so the zero vectorof W is in.
Let
Then
Since Z is a subspace of W.
So Z is closed under vector addition.
Thus,
Now Since T is a linear transformation
Therefore,
Thus,
Therefore, U is closed under vector addition.
