c.) Find, if there is any, a vectorv⃗ such that (S ◦ T)(v⃗ ) = ⃗b where b⃗ =
Use the invertible matrix theorem to determine the value(s) of λ for which the matrix
λ − 1 0 − 1 λ − 1 0 − 1 λ
is invertible.
Let T : R^3 Ï R^3 be a linear transformation and B = { v⃗ 1 v,⃗ 2 v,⃗ 3 } a basis for R^3. Suppose Tv(⃗ 1 ) = ( − 2 , 1 , 1), Tv(⃗ 2 ) = (0, 1 , − 1) and Tv( ⃗ 3 ) = ( − 2 , 2 , 0). a.) Determine whetherw⃗ = ( − 6 , 5 , 0) is in the range of T. b.) Find a basis for the range of T. c.) Find a basis for the null space of T.(Remark. Range of T is the same space as the column space of A where A is the standard matrix of T.)
