3.[4p] (a) In the following questions assume that a linear operator acts from a finite- dimensional linear space X to X, and assume that the word "vector means an element of X. Recall that a vector a is a pre-image of a vector y (and y is the image of x) for a linear operator A: X -> X, if Ax-y. How many of the following statements are true? (i) A linear operator maps a basis into a basis. (ii)...
For Problems C4-C11, prove or disprove the statement. C4 If V is an n-dimensional vector space and {11,...,Vk} is a linearly independent set in V, then k sn. C5 Every basis for P2(R) has exactly two vectors in it. C6 If {V1, V2} is a basis for a 2-dimensional vector space V, then {ağı + bū2, cũı + dv2} is also a basis for V for any non-zero real numbers a,b,c,d.
