The intersection of subspaces is a subspace

Created almost 9 years ago, updated about 8 hours ago

Every subspace contains zero, so their intersection does too. If $x,y$ lie in every $W_i$, each combination $ax+by$ lies in every $W_i$, proving closure. The argument works for arbitrarily many subspaces. An empty intersection is conventionally the whole ambient space.
