proof

given W being Submodule of V such that A1: the carrier of W = the carrier of W1 \/ the carrier of W2 ; :: thesis:
set VW = the carrier of W;
assume that
A2: W1 is not Submodule of W2 and
A3: W2 is not Submodule of W1 ; :: thesis:
not the carrier of W2 c= the carrier of W1 by A3, RMOD_2:27;
then consider y being object such that
A4: y in the carrier of W2 and
A5: not y in the carrier of W1 ;
reconsider y = y as Element of the carrier of W2 by A4;
reconsider y = y as Vector of V by RMOD_2:10;
reconsider A1 = the carrier of W as Subset of V by RMOD_2:def 2;
A6: A1 is linearly-closed by RMOD_2:33;
not the carrier of W1 c= the carrier of W2 by A2, RMOD_2:27;
then consider x being object such that
A7: x in the carrier of W1 and
A8: not x in the carrier of W2 ;
reconsider x = x as Element of the carrier of W1 by A7;
reconsider x = x as Vector of V by RMOD_2:10;

assume x + y in the carrier of W2 ; :: thesis:
then (x + y) - y in the carrier of W2 by A10, RMOD_2:3;
then x + (y - y) in the carrier of W2 by RLVECT_1:def 3;

then y + (x - x) in the carrier of W1 by RLVECT_1:def 3;
then y + (0. V) in the carrier of W1 by VECTSP_1:19;
hence contradiction by A5, RLVECT_1:def 4; :: thesis:
