Properties of linear spaces Consider the set of ordered pairs defined on the Cartesian product \( V=\{0,1,2\} \times\{0,1,2\} \), i.e. pairs \( \mathbf{x}=\left(x_{1}, x_{2}\right) \in V \) with \( x_{1} \in\{0,1,2\} \) and \( x_{2} \in\{0,1,2\} \). We can also refer to the pairs as 2-dimensional vectors. We define scalar multiplication of elements in \( V \) such that for a scalar \( a \in\{0,1,2\} \), we have \( a \otimes \mathrm{x}=\left(a \otimes x_{1}, a \otimes x_{2}\right) \). Furthermore, vector addition between elements in \( V \) is defined such that \( \mathbf{x} \oplus \mathbf{y}=\left(x_{1} \oplus y_{1}, x_{2} \oplus y_{2}\right) \). The addition \( (\oplus) \) and multiplication \( (\otimes) \) operations for scalars are defined according to the following tables. i. Determine whether or not \( V \), along with \( \otimes \) and \( \oplus \) defines a vector space (i.e., verify the 10 properties). ii. Find a subspace of \( V \) with dimension equal to 1 , and verify that it is also a vector space. 5 marks
