Write down the matrices representing the following linear transformations: An enlargement with a scale factor of 2.
Added by Ismael B.
Step 1
In this case, an enlargement with scale factor 2 would multiply both the x and y coordinates of any point by 2. The matrix representing this linear transformation would be: $$ \begin{pmatrix} 2 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 \end{pmatrix} $$ Now, let's consider a 3D space. In Show more…

Describe each of the linear transformations defined by the matrices in parts (a) through (c) geometrically, as a well-known transformation combined with a scaling. Give the scaling factor in each case. a. $\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1\end{array}\right]$ b. $\left[\begin{array}{rr}3 & 0 \\ -1 & 3\end{array}\right]$ $c_{*}\left[\begin{array}{rr}3 & 4 \\ 4 & -3\end{array}\right]$

Show that T is a linear transformation by finding a matrix that implements the mapping. Note that x1, x2, ... are not vectors but are entries in vectors. T(x1, x2, x3) = (x1 - 2x2 + 7x3, x2 - 8x3) A = (Type an integer or decimal for each matrix element.)
