Find basis and dimension of V,W,VW,V+W\displaystyle \,V,\, W,\, V\, \cap\, W,\, V\,+\, W\, where V={pR4(x),p(0)p(1)=p(0)=p(1)},\displaystyle \,V\, =\,\left\{p\,\in\, \mathbb{R_4}(x),\, p^{'}(0) \,\wedge p(1)\, =\, p(0)\, =\, p(-1) \right\},\, and W={pR4(x),p(1)=0}\displaystyle \, W\, =\, \left\{p\, \in\, \mathbb{R_4}(x),\, p(1)\, =\, 0 \right\}

Could someone give a hint how to get general representation of a vector in V\displaystyle \, V\, and W\displaystyle \,W?

I believe you mean the following: The space R4(x)\displaystyle \mathbb{R_4}(x) can be modeled as the polynomial
p(x) = a x3 + b x2 + c x + d
or as the vector space
U\displaystyle \boldsymbol{U} = {u = <a, b, c, d>; a, b, c, and d ϵR\displaystyle \epsilon\, \mathbb{R}}.
Depending on just what is meant by p(0)p(1)\displaystyle p^{'}(0) \,\wedge p(1) one interpretation or the other might be more useful.
