Some parking meters in downtown Geneva, Switzerland, acceptFranc and Franc coins.
a. A parking officer collects coins worth Francs. How many coins are there of each kind?
b. Find the matrixthat transforms the vector
into the vector
c. Is the matrixin part (b) invertible? If so, find the inverse (use Exercise 13). Use the result to check your answer in part (a).
If is invertible, then matrix A itself must be invertible.
Consider a linear transformation Tfrom to . Suppose thatand are two arbitrary vectors in and thatis a third vector whose endpoint is on the line segment connecting the endpoints ofand . Is the endpoint of the vectornecessarily on the line segment connecting the endpoints ofand ? Justify your answer.

Matrixis invertible for all real numbers k.
Consider the circular face in the accompanying figure. For each of the matrices A in Exercises 24 through 30, draw a sketch showing the effect of the linear transformation on this face.
