Topic: Linear Transormations

Note: We use short form‘LT’ for ‘Linear transformation’ and ‘LI’ for ‘Linear Independent’

1. In each part, determine whether T is a Linear trasnformation.


(a) T (x, y, z) = (0, 0) (b) T (x, y, z, w) = (1, −1)
(c) T (x, y, z) = (x − y + z, 0) (d) T (x, y, z) = (z, yz, x + y + z)
(e) T (x, y, z) = (2y, x + z, −3y).

2. Find the standard matrix for the operator T : R3 → R3 defined by


w1 =4x1 − 3x2 + x3
w2 =2x1 − x2 + 5x3
w3 =x1 + 2x2 − 2x3

multiplication.
