$W=ab=cd.$



How do I prove that $W$ is subspace of $mathbb R^4$?



I have $(0,0,0,0)in W$, so $W$ not empty.



and $kinmathbb R$,$win W$ so $kwin W$.



so I'm not sure that if $w_1,w_2in W$ so $w_1+w_2in W$ ?

    $(1,1,1,1)$ and $(2,3,6,1)$ are in $W$. Is $(3,4,7,2)$?

It isn't, as it's not defined by linear relations.



Counter-example: set $;w_1=(1,0,0,1)$, $w_2=(0,2,1,0)$. We have:
$$w_1+w_2=(1,2,1,1)$$
and it doesn't satisfy the relation.

    $(1,0,0,0) in W$ because $1 cdot 0 = 0 cdot 0$.



    Also



    $(0, 1,0,0) in W$ because $0 cdot 1 = 0 cdot 0$.



    $(1,0,0,0)+(0,1,0,0)=(1,1,0,0)$ but $1cdot 1 ne 0 cdot 0$.



    Hence $W$ is not closed under addition.
