You need to justify every one of youranswers unless you are asked not to do so. Completely correct answers given withoutjustification will receive little credit. Look over the whole exam to find problems thatyou can do quickly. You need not simplify your answers unless you are specificallyasked to do so. Hand in this exam before you leave.Problem Maximum Score Your Score1 52 193 194 195 196 19Total 1001. (5 Points)Your Name:Your GSI:Your SID:Math54 Sample Midterm I, Fall 2007 22.

(19 Points) Let P be the set of all functions of the form c0+ c1sin(x) cos(x) + c2cos2(x) +c3sin2(x), where the c’s are arbitrary real constants. It is known that P is a linear spaceunder the usual function addition and scalar multiplication. Find the dimension and a basisfor P.Math54 Sample Midterm I, Fall 2007 44.
