    Tutorial 2

    1. Consider the following system of linear equations.


    2x1 + 3x2 2x3 + 4x4 = 2
    6x1 9x2 + 7x3 8x4 = 3
    4x1 + 6x2 x3 + 20x4 = 13
    Find the echelon form of the above system, row rank of the coefficient matrix A, a basis for
    the null space of A and all the solutions.
    2. let T : IR2 IR2 be defined by T (x1 , x2 ) = (x2 , x1 ). Find the matrix of T in the standard
    basis as well as in the basis {[1, 2]t , [1, 1]t }.
    3. (a) Let {v1 , v2 , , vn be a basis for V and let T : V V be such that
    T vj = vj+1 , j = 1, , n 1, T un = 0.
    Find the matrix representing T and show that T n = 0, but T n1 6= 0.
    (b) Let S : V V be such that S n = 0, but S n1 6= 0. Prove that there exists a basis for
    V with respect to which the matrix of S is equal to the matrix of T in part (a).
    4. Let T : U V, S : V W be linear transformations. Show that
    rank (ST ) min{rank(S), rank(T )}.
    Find sufficient conditions on T and S so that
    i) rank(ST ) = rank(S), ii) rank(ST ) = rank(T ).
    5. Let T : V V be such that rank (T 2 ) = rank (T ). Show that R(T )

    N(T ) = {0}.

    6. Let T : IR3 IR2 and S : IR2 IR3 be linear transformations. Show that ST is not
    invertible.
