b) Let and define addition and scaler multiplication as follows: If and (for ) then define
And if , then define
Studdy Solution
Verify the existence of additive inverses: For each , find such that .
Since there is no additive identity, additive inverses cannot exist.
Since steps 5 and 6 fail, does not satisfy all the axioms of a vector space.
