(8) Suppose T : R 4 → R 4 with T(x) = Ax is a linear transformation such that • (0, 0, 1, 0) and (0, 0, 0, 1) lie in the kernel of T, and • all vectors of the form (x1, x2, 0, 0) are reflected about the line 2x1 − x2 = 0.
(a) Compute all the eigenvalues of A and a basis of each eigenspace.
(b) Is A invertible? Explain.
(c) Is A diagonalizable? If yes, write down its diagonalization (you can leave it as a product of matrices). If no, why not?

a. Consider a non-equilateral triangle. Try to create a tessellation around a point as you did before. Be sure you have no gaps or overlaps. Do you think any triangle with tessellate? Why or why not? Defend your reasoning.

user A sends two messages to user B using ElGamal. user C
listens on the line and intercepts both messages, and got the
decryption of the first message. explain well if user C can decrypt
the second message as well:
1)user A sends two messages E(m) and E(m'). to encrypt the first
message user A used the variable k and to encrypt the second k+5.
User C knows that there's a difference of 5 between the k values
chosen. can he recover the second message?
2)user A sends two messages E(m) and E(m'). to encrypt the first
message user A used the variable k and to encrypt the second 2k.
User C knows that the second k used is two times the first k used.
can he recover the second message?
please explain mathematically and elaborate so i can understand and
learn from your answer. thank you very much.

2. Some fourth-grade students are practicing reading and comparing decimal numbers. They created two different numbers using decimal squares. Stephanie reads the decimal squares below as “zero and forty-five hundredths” and “zero and one tenth.” She says: “Zero and forty-five hundredths is thirty five hundredths greater than one tenth.” Her partner, Ingrid says: “That’s not right. The square on the left is thirty-five squares bigger than the one on the right.”
a) What does Stephanie seem to understand? What does Ingrid seem to understand?
b) What could you talk about with these students to help improve their understanding?

1.) Suppose that the statement form ((p ∧ ∼ q)∨(p ∧ ∼ r))∧(∼ p ∨ ∼ s) is true. What can you conclude about the truth values of the variables p, q, r and s? Explain your reasoning
2.Use the Laws of Logical Equivalence (provided in class and in the textbook page 35 of edition 4 and page 49 of edition 5) to show that: ((∼ (p ∨ ∼ q) ∨ (∼ p ∧ ∼ r)) ∧ s) ≡ ((r → q) ∧ ∼ (s → p)) where p, q, r and s are statements
