Work Step by Step

(a) v(0) = 0 0∈ V. (b) (Q+K)(0) = 0 -> Q(0) + K(0) = 0 -> 0 + 0 = 0 Q+K or v is closed over addition. (c) c(Q+K)(0)=0 -> cQ(0) + cK(0) = 0 -> c0 + c0 = 0 -> 0 + 0 = 0. c(Q+K)∈V Q+K or v is closed under scalar multiplication. Conclusion: By definition of subspace, Q+K or v is a subspace of V
