Avg difficulty 3.0

Find a basis for each of these subspaces of the space P3\mathcal{P}_{3} of cubic polynomials.

  • The subspace of cubic polynomials p(x)p(x) such that p(7)=0p(7)=0

  • The subspace of polynomials p(x)p(x) such that p(7)=0p(7)=0 and p(5)=0p(5)=0

  • The subspace of polynomials p(x)p(x) such that p(7)=0p(7)=0, p(5)=0p(5)=0, and p(3)=0p(3)=0

  • The space of polynomials p(x)p(x) such that p(7)=0p(7)=0, p(5)=0p(5)=0, p(3)=0p(3)=0, and p(1)=0p(1)=0
