I- (a) (12 points) Determine whether the set of all 9 x 9 matrices , Mgg, is a vector
space under the following addition and scalar multiplication:
A+B=A+B+],
al b| — |(k+1)a (k+2)6
c d (k+3)c (k+4)d
Note: In the above definition of addition, the plus sign on the left is the new
addition operation, and the one on the right is the standard addition operation.

(b) (12 points) Let W be the set of all polynomials of degree exactly 4. Determine
whether W is a subspace of the set of polynomials of degree less than or equal
to 4, Pa.
