Suppose the mapping \(F: \mathbf{R}^{2} \rightarrow \mathbf{R}^{2}\) is defined by \(F(x, y)=(x+y, x) .\) Show that \(F\) is linear.
Determine whether or not each of the following linear maps is nonsingular. If not, find a nonzero vector \(v\) whose image is 0 (a) \(F: \mathbf{R}^{2} \rightarrow \mathbf{R}^{2}\) defined by \(F(x, y)=(x-y, x-2 y)\) (b) \(G: \mathbf{R}^{2} \rightarrow \mathbf{R}^{2}\) defined by \(G(x, y)=(2 x-4 y, 3 x-6 y)\)
Suppose \(F: \mathbf{R}^{3} \rightarrow \mathbf{R}^{2}\) is defined by \(F(x, y, z)=(x+y+z, 2 x-3 y+4 z) .\) Show that \(F\) is linear.
5.90. Let \(F: V \rightarrow U\) be linear and let \(W\) be a subspace of \(V\). The restriction of \(F\) to \(W\) is the \(\operatorname{map} F | W: W \rightarrow U\) defined by \(F | W(v)=F(v)\) for every \(v\) in \(W\). Prove the following: (a) \(F | W\) is linear; (b) \(\operatorname{Ker}(F | W)=(\operatorname{Ker} F) \cap W\) (c) \(\operatorname{Im}(F | W)=F(W)\)
Find the dimension \(d\) of \((a) \operatorname{Hom}\left(\mathbf{R}^{2}, \mathbf{R}^{8}\right),(b) \operatorname{Hom}\left(\mathbf{P}_{4}(t), \mathbf{R}^{3}\right),(\mathrm{c}) \operatorname{Hom}\left(\mathbf{M}_{2,4}, \mathbf{P}_{2}(t)\right)\)
