Which of the following are linear transformations?
Choose Linear Not Linear The function f:ℝ3→ℝ2 defined
byf([x y z]^T)=[x−y 3y+z]^T.
Choose Linear Not Linear The function a:ℝ→ℝ such that
a(x)=(x−1)+(x−2)^2.
Choose Linear Not Linear The function g:M2,2(ℝ)→M2,2(ℝ) defined by g(A)=2A+[1 2
3 4] Here, M2,2(ℝ)) is the vector space of
2×2matrices with real entries.
Choose Linear Not Linear The function h:ℝ2→ℝ defined by h([xy])=x^2−y^2.

Let A1 and A2 be 2 arbitrary elements of M2,2 (R). Then g(A1+A2) = 2(A1+A2)+B 2A1+B +2A2+Bi.e. g(A1+A2)g(A1)+g(A2). This implies that g does not preserve vector addition. Hence g is not a linear transformation.
4. The function h: R2→R is defined by h(x,y)T= x2−y2. Let X1 = (x1,y1)T and X2 = (x2,y2)T be 2 arbitrary elements of R2. Then h(X1+X2) = (x1+x2)2−(y1+y2)2≠ x12−y12 + x22−y22 i.e. h(X1+X2) ≠ h(X1)+h(X2). This implies that h does not preserve vector addition. Hence h is not a linear transformation.
