LetVbe the set of all ordered pairs of real numbers (u1,u2) withu2> 0. Consider the following addition and scalar multiplication operations onu= (u1,u2) andv= (v1,v2):

u+v= (u1+v1+ 4,7u2v2),ku= (ku1,ku2)

Use the above operations for the following parts.

(a)If the setVsatisfies Axiom 4 of a vector space (the existence of a zero vector), what would be the zero vector?

(b)Ifu= (5,3), what would be the negative of the vectorureferred to in Axiom 5 of a vector space?

(Don't forget to use your answer to part (a) here!)
