AI Summary
This linear algebra assignment explores various concepts including matrix multiplication, composition of linear transformations, null spaces, and image spaces. It demonstrates how to find compatible matrices for multiplication, calculate the product of compatible matrices, and determine the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix. Additionally, it delves into the concept of linear independence of vectors and uses row echelon form to analyze their relationships. The assignment also covers finding the null space and image space of a linear transformation.

A32: Matrices
a) R23
Assuming that v is a vector space then a linearly independent spanning set for V is
called the basis.
For a matrix in Rn then the standard basis is
ei= ( 1,0,0,0, 0,0,0 ) ,is e2= ( 0,1,0,0,0, 0,0,0 ) , is en=(0,0,0,0,0, 0,0,0,1)
but the Rn is either an n1 for a column¿ 1n for a row ¿.
Then the R23 will be a 2*3. For a 2*3 the basis is
e1= ( 1,0,0 ) , e2=(0,1,0)
b) A=(1 2 1)
B=(
3 1
1 2
1 2
)
C=[1 0
1 0]
calculating all the possible¿
A B C
A * AB AC
B BA * BC
C CA CB *
The areas marked by * have a matrix appearing twice hence are ignored as per the
requirements.
Now applying the matrix multiplication rule that is; to multiply two matrices, then the
number of columns in the first matrix should be equal to the number of rows in the
second matrix.
We now check the matrices for compatibility.
1st; AB¿ ( 1 2 1 )(
3 1
1 2
1 2
) the matrices are compatible hence the multiplication
gives [4 3]

2nd AC= (1 2 1 )[1 0
1 0 ] in this matrices matrix A has 3 columns while C has 2
rows from the guiding rule these matrices are not compatible hence multiplication is
not possible.
3rd BA ; Bhas 2 columns while A has 1 row. Matrices are therefore not compatible.

5th; CA; C has 2 columns while A has 1 row hence not compatible.
6th; CB, C has 2 columns while B 3 rows therefore not compatible.
Afterwards we now check matrices ABCBCA
ABC= [ 4 3 ]
[ 1 0
1 0 ] =[1 0]
BCA= [ 2 0
1 0
1 0 ]( 1 2 1 )
In this case BC has 2 columns while a has only one row hence incompatibility.
The obtained multiplications are the only possible matrix product from matrix A, B
and C
c) Calculating An
A=[
4 12 4

First, we begin by computing A1 , A2 , A3 ¿
A1 as for any number gives the same number so in our case we obtain [

2 5 1
2 5 1
]
now moving to
A2= AA

[ 4 12 4

Linear Algebra
¿ herewe can conclude that An =0 for all then>2
To prove this, we apply the diagonalization formula
Since A is 3 *3 matrix we try to put A into a diagonal matrix
Suppose D=P1 AP
TheDn= [ P1 AP ]n
= P1 APP1 AP¿ P1 AP=P1 An P
From here we can derive
An =P1 Dn P
The aim is to put A in a diagonal format therefore there is need to obtain a basis of
eigenvectors.
Obtaining the eigenvalues from the characteristic polynomial
[
4λ 12 4
2 5λ 1
2 5 1λ
]
¿λ3 =(1)( λ)( λ)( λ)
This gives
λ1=λ2= λ3=0
Now obtaining the eigenvectors from the eigenvalue
AλE=[
4 12 4
2 5 1
2 5 1
]
AλE=0 which gives a homogenous system of linear equations. Solving by
gaussian elimination we get
[
4 12 4
2 5 1
2 5 1
] gives [
1 0 2
0 1 1
0 0 0
]
From here
x1+ 2 x3=0
x2x3=0
Obtaining the variables x2 the system 2 gives x2=x3
The vector X =[
2 x3
x3
x3
]
Now x3 [

] which is the basis for the eigenvector for A

Linear Algebra
If this gives us P which means that P1 does not exist.
The number of eigenvectors is not equal to the matrix dimensions hence matrix A is
not diagonalizable as it only has one eigenvector which is less than 3.
