Let V={(a,b) : a, b ∈ R, b>0}\mathbb{V} = \big\{ (a,b) \, : \, a,\,b \, \in \, \mathbb{R}, \, b > 0 \big\}, and define vector addition by:

(a,b)⊕(c,d)=(ad+bc, bd)(a,b) \oplus (c,d) = (ad+bc,\, bd),

and define scalar multiplication by

k⊗(a,b)=(kabk−1, bk)k \otimes (a,b) = (kab^{k-1},\, b^k).

Determine whether V\mathbb{V}, along with these operations, is a vector space of over R\mathbb{R}.
