Document Summary

Solutions to the sample questions for exam 3 on 11/30/2007. Prof. john beachy: let l : r5 r4 be the linear transformation de ned by l(x) = ax, for the matrix. 0 0 1 1 (a) nd a basis for ker l; Since ker l is the solution space of the equation l(x) = 0, we need to nd the solution space of the system of equations ax = 0. After row-reducing the matrix, we have the corresponding equations x1 = 2x4; x3 = x4; x5 = 0. Choose x2 = 1, x4 = 0 and then x2 = 0, x4 = 1 to obtain the basis. 0 (b) nd a basis for range l; Since range l is the column space of a, as basis we take the columns of a that correspond to the leading 1"s in the reduced matrix, giving us the basis. 0 (c) nd dim(ker l) and dim(range l).

Q2

Modle answer but different numbers

I have the answer for the following question. But some of theanswers are not correct.

Please do the following question by yourself and check which arethe wrong answers,please post your answers and compare to it.

Let r in and u =(1 1 0), v = (1 4 1), w = (r2 1 r2), b = (3+2r 5+12r 2r). For which values r in is the set {u. v, w} linearly independent? For which values r in is the vector b a linear combination of u. v and w? For which of these values of r can b be written as a linear combination of u. v and w in more than one way? The set 3 of all column vectors of length three, with real entries, is a vector space. Is the subset B = {(x y z) in 3 | xy + yz = 0} a subspace of 3? Justify your answer. Show that the set of all twice differentiable functions f : satisfying the differential equation sin(x) f"(x) + x2f(x) = 0 is a vector space with respect to the usual operations of addition of functions and multiplication by scalars. Here, f" denotes the second derivative of f. Let S be the following subset of the vector space 3 of all real polynomials p of degree at most 3: S = {p in 3 | p(l) = 0, p'(l) = 0}, where p' is the derivative of p. Determine whether S is a subspace of 3. Determine whether the polynomial q(x) = x - 2x2 + x3 is an element of S. u = (1 1 0), v = (1 4 1), w = (r2 1 r2) if {u, v, w} is linearly independent set 1(4r2 - 1)-1(r2 - r2) ne 0 4r2 ne 1 r ne plusmn1/2 this set is linearly independent set for values of e ne plusmn1/2 - - - - - - - (3+2r 5+12r 2r) = a1 (1 1 0) + a2 (1 4 1) + a3 (r2 1 r2) this forms system of equations in a1, a2, a3 if 4r2 - 1 ne 0 then system has unique solution if 4r2 - 1 = 0 and -2 - 4r = 0 rArr r = -1/2, the system has more than one solution if 4r2 - 1 ne 0 b can be written as linear combination of u,v,w as uniquely if r = -1/2 then b can be written as linear combination of u,v,w more than one way - - - - - - - - - (1 1 -1) in B and (1 0 1) in B (1 1 -1) + (1 0 1) = (2 1 0) not in B since 2times1+1times0 ne 0 so addition of vector is failed, this set is not forms subspace consider the following differential equation (sinx)f"(x) + x2f (x) = 0 each solution is continuous function the set of all solutions is subset of space of set of all continuous functions n from R to R let f,g are two solutions (sinx)f"(x) + x2f (x) = 0 (sinx)g"(x)+x2g(x) = 0 ccheck whether af+bg is solution or not (sinx)f"(x) + x2f(x) = 0 rArr (sinx) af"(x) + x2?f (x) = 0 (sinx)g"(x) + x2g (x) = 0 rArr (sinx)bg" (x) + x2bg (x) = 0 (sinx)(af"(x)+bg"(x)) +x2 (af (x) + bg(x)) = 0 af+bg is also solution to differential equation the set of all solutions to differential equation forms subspace - - - - - - - - - - consider the following subset of P3 {p in P3/.p(l)=0, p'(l) = 0} let p, q in S rArr p(l)= 0, p'(l) = 0 and q(l) = 0, q'(l) = 0 (ap + bq) (l) = ap (l) +b q(l) = a (0) + b (0) = 0 (ap + bq)'(1) = ap'(l) +bq'(1) = a (0) + b(0) = 0 p, q in S rArr ap +bq in S then S is subspace q(x) = x - 2x2 + x3 q(1) = 1 - 2 + 1 = 0 q'(x)=1 - 4x + 3x2 q'(l) = 1 - 4 + 3 = 0 q is element of S
