Chapter 3: Problem 1
If \(L, M\) and \(N\) are vector subspaces of \(V\) show that $$ \operatorname{LO}(M+(L \cap N))=L \cap M+L \cap N $$ but it is not truc en general that $$ L \cap(M+N)=\operatorname{Ln} M+L \cap N $$

The first equation holds, and can be proven by breaking down vector sums and intersections. The second does not hold in general, as shown with the example where \(L = \{0\}\), and \(M = N\).
