Let \(L_{1}: U \rightarrow V\) and \(L_{2}: V \rightarrow W\) be linear transformations, and let \(L=L_{2} \circ L_{1}\) be the mapping defined by \\[ L(\mathbf{u})=L_{2}\left(L_{1}(\mathbf{u})\right) \\] for each \(\mathbf{u} \in U .\) Show that \(L\) is a linear transformation mapping \(U\) into \(W\)
For each of the following linear operators \(L\) on \(\mathbb{R}^{3}\), find a matrix \(A\) such that \(L(\mathbf{x})=A \mathbf{x}\) for every \(\mathbf{x}\) in \(\mathbb{R}^{3}:\) (a) \(L\left(\left(x_{1}, x_{2}, x_{3}\right)^{T}\right)=\left(x_{3}, x_{2}, x_{1}\right)^{T}\) (b) \(L\left(\left(x_{1}, x_{2}, x_{3}\right)^{T}\right)=\left(x_{1}, x_{1}+x_{2}, x_{1}+x_{2}+x_{3}\right)^{T}\) (c) \(L\left(\left(x_{1}, x_{2}, x_{3}\right)^{T}\right)=\left(2 x_{3}, x_{2}+3 x_{1}, 2 x_{1}-x_{3}\right)^{T}\)
Let a be a fixed nonzero vector in \(\mathbb{R}^{2} .\) A mapping of the form \\[ L(\mathbf{x})=\mathbf{x}+\mathbf{a} \\] is called a translation. Show that a translation is not a linear operator. Illustrate geometrically the effect of a translation.
Let \(E=\left\\{\mathbf{u}_{1}, \mathbf{u}_{2}, \mathbf{u}_{3}\right\\}\) and \(F=\left\\{\mathbf{b}_{1}, \mathbf{b}_{2}\right\\},\) where \\[ \mathbf{u}_{1}=\left(\begin{array}{r} 1 \\ 0 \\ -1 \end{array}\right), \quad \mathbf{u}_{2}=\left(\begin{array}{l} 1 \\ 2 \\ 1 \end{array}\right), \quad \mathbf{u}_{3}=\left(\begin{array}{r} -1 \\ 1 \\ 1 \end{array}\right) \\] and \\[ \mathbf{b}_{1}=(1,-1)^{T}, \quad \mathbf{b}_{2}=(2,-1)^{T} \\] For each of the following linear transformations \(L\) from \(\mathbb{R}^{3}\) into \(\mathbb{R}^{2},\) find the matrix representing \(L\) with respect to the ordered bases \(E\) and \(F\) (a) \(L(\mathbf{x})=\left(x_{3}, x_{1}\right)^{T}\) (b) \(L(\mathbf{x})=\left(x_{1}+x_{2}, x_{1}-x_{3}\right)^{T}\) (c) \(L(\mathbf{x})=\left(2 x_{2},-x_{1}\right)^{T}\)
Show that each of the following are linear operators on \(\mathbb{R}^{2}\). Describe geometrically what each linear transformation accomplishes. (a) \(L(\mathbf{x})=\left(-x_{1}, x_{2}\right)^{T}\) (b) \(L(\mathbf{x})=-\mathbf{x}\) (c) \(L(\mathbf{x})=\left(x_{2}, x_{1}\right)^{T}\) (d) \(L(\mathbf{x})=\frac{1}{2} \mathbf{x}\) (e) \(L(\mathbf{x})=x_{2} \mathbf{e}_{2}\)
