The necessary and sufficient condition for a non - empty subset W of a vector space V(F) to be a subspace of V is
a,b in F and α, β in W implies a α + b β in W
I need to prove the postulates of vector space with this condition. Hints ?

Hint
The first axiom is to show that if u , v W, then u + v W. Since F is a field, therefore 1 F. From the property given to you, you can choose a = b = 1 to get this axiom.
Now try to go with the remaining axioms by making appropriate choices.
