Back to Any Matrix Represents a Linear Map

Exercise 2

Avg difficulty 3.0

Consider a linear map f ⁣:V→Wf\colon V\to W represented with respect to some bases B,DB,D by the matrix. Decide if that map is nonsingular.

  • (a)  (2134)\begin{pmatrix}2&1\\ 3&4\end{pmatrix}     (b)  (11−3−3)\begin{pmatrix}1&1\\ -3&-3\end{pmatrix}     (c)  (300210444)\begin{pmatrix}3&0&0\\ 2&1&0\\ 4&4&4\end{pmatrix}     (d)  (20−211041−4)\begin{pmatrix}2&0&-2\\ 1&1&0\\ 4&1&-4\end{pmatrix}
