Prove that if \(E\) is an elementary matrix, then \(\operatorname{det}\left(E^{t}\right)=\operatorname{det}(E) .\) Visit goo.gl/6ZoU5Z for a solution.
Prove that \(\operatorname{det}\left(A^{t}\right)=\operatorname{det}(A)\) for any \(A \in \mathrm{M}_{2 \times 2}(F)\).
Consider the vector space \(\mathbf{P}_{3}(t)\) of polynomials of degree \(\leq 3\). (a) Show that \(S=\left\\{(t-1)^{3},(t-1)^{2}, t-1,1\right\\}\) is a basis of \(\mathbf{P}_{3}(t)\), (b) Find the coordinate vector \([v]\) of \(v=3 t^{3}-4 t^{2}+2 t-5\) relative to \(S\).
Suppose \(W_{1}, W_{2}, \ldots, W_{r}\) are subspaces of a vector space \(V\). Show that (a) \(\operatorname{span}\left(W_{1}, W_{2}, \ldots, W_{r}\right)=W_{1}+W_{2}+\cdots+W_{r}\). (b) If \(S_{i}\) spans \(W_{i}\) for \(i=1, \ldots, r,\) then \(S_{1} \cup S_{2} \cup \ldots \cup S_{r}\) spans \(W_{1}+W_{2}+\cdots+W_{r}\).
Prove that if \(\delta: M_{n \times n}(F) \rightarrow F\) is an alternating \(n\)-linear function, then there exists a scalar \(k\) such that $\delta(A)=k \operatorname{det}(A)\( for all \)A \in \mathrm{M}_{n \times n}(F)$.
