Q. Consider this matrix transformation:⎣⎡−14−2−1⎦⎤What is the image of [3−2] under this transformation?
Write Matrix and Vector: Write down the matrix and the vector to be transformed.Matrix: [−1amp;−24amp;−1]Vector: [3−2]We will multiply the matrix by the vector to find the image.
Perform Matrix Multiplication: Perform the matrix multiplication.First row of the matrix multiplied by the vector:(−1×3)+(−2×−2)=−3+4=1Second row of the matrix multiplied by the vector:(4×3)+(−1×−2)=12+2=14The resulting vector is:\begin{bmatrix}1\14\end{bmatrix}
Verify Calculations: Verify the calculations to ensure there are no math errors.First element: (−1×3)+(−2×−2)=−3+4=1 (Correct)Second element: (4×3)+(−1×−2)=12+2=14 (Correct)The calculations are correct.
