  1. Below is a proof of Theorem 4.1.1 (b): For the zero vector ⃗0 in any vector space V and k ∈ R, k⃗0 = ⃗0.

    Justify for each of the eight steps why it is true.

    1. k⃗0+k⃗0=k(⃗0+⃗0)

    2. = k ⃗0

    3. k⃗0 is in V

    4. and therefore −(k⃗0) is in V .

    5. It follows that (k⃗0 + k⃗0) + (−k⃗0) = (k⃗0) + (−k⃗0)

    6. and thus k⃗0 + (k⃗0 + (−k⃗0)) = (k⃗0) + (−k⃗0).

    7. We conclude that k⃗0 + ⃗0 = ⃗0

    8. and so k⃗0 = ⃗0, as desired.

In the proof of Theorem 4.7 (Euclid’s proof that there are infinitely many primes), the argument uses calculation of a number N. In each case below, suppose for the sake of demonstrating a contradiction, that the given list is the entire list of prime numbers. Calculate N and then factor N into primes to see that you do get a contradiction. (a) 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 (b) 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19 (c) 2, 3, 5,...
