Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q5 TOTAL 20 20 20 20 20 20 100 1) Find bases for the row and column and null spaces of the matrix -2 -2 -3 2 2 4-2 342 1 0 4 1 -5 -7 What is the rank and nullity of the matrix? 1 2. a) Let A be a 4 × 6 matrix. What is the largest possible value for rank of A? Explain. Prove or disprove that the columns of A are always linearly dependent. b) Let Rn denote the space of row matrices with n entries. Suppose that L : R4 → R3 is the linear transformation defined by L([a, b, c, d]) = [a+b, c−d, a+3c, a+2b+d]. Find the 3 × 4-matrix A associated to L with respect to the standard basis for R and R3. 3) a) Prove that if A is invertible and diagonalizable, then A¯¹ is also diagonalizable. b) Let S and T be two bases for the finite dimensional vector space V. Show that the transition matrix Prs is invertible. c) True or false? Let A be an n × n invertible matrix. Then A is the transition matrix Pr←s with respect to some bases S and T of Rn. Explain. 4) Let -5 A = 0 1 0 6 -10 If possible, find an invertible matrix P such that P-¹AP is diagonal.
