Intended Learning Outcomes:
• Solution:
Vectors in Rn
A vector in n -space is represented by an
ordered n-tuple. The set of all n-tuples is
called n-space and is denoted by Rn
A n –tuple (x1,x2…xn) can be viewed as a point
in Rn with the x ’s as its coordinates or as a
vector

Vector Spaces
Any set that satisfies these properties (or
axioms) is called a vector space, and the
objects in the set are called vectors.
Definition of Vector Space
Example
• Determine if the set of integers is a vector
space
Proof: Let u and v be any integers
1.u+v = a vector ; u + v = integers close under
addition
2.u+v = v+ u
2+ 3= 3+2
