The zero functional is in the space

For a variable x, consider the vector space V = {ax bx cx + d | }. Further, let A = { | f is linear transformation} and B = {f ∈ A | f(1) = 0}. Which of the following statements are true?

  1. A.If f ∈ B, then dim ker f = 3
  2. B.dim B = 3
  3. C.dim A = 4
  4. D.If f ∈ A, then the image of f is a one-dimensional vector space.

You have the answer. Trap Analysis is why the other three were written.

Not a worked solution repeated four times — the specific reasoning error each wrong option was built to reward.
